Gavin and Emma
Gavin and Emma have been working in the chalet industry in the French Alps for over 8 years and fell in love with St Martin de Belleville during a ski season. We have a passion for the mountains and the alpine way of life, which made the decision to move to the stunning village of Le Chatelard, the next village to St Martin de Belleville, an easy decision.
“It’s such a stunning part of the world in both winter and summer! The rest is history!”
Emma has been fortunate to ski since she was 4 years old as her aunt lived the winters in Davos and the summers in Montreux which started a real love of many things alpine. Gavin is a passionate skier and has enjoyed many ski holidays with his two amazing children – and feels very fortunate to now add running a ski chalet business to his many guises as a qualified accountant, project manager, and life & business coach.
“We are so excited to grow our business and continue to welcome as many new and returning guests as possible. We love having happy guests returning to our beautiful little ski resort year after year!”
Meet the team!
Guy & Annika
Hello, we’re Guy and Annika – lovers of the great outdoors and lifelong nomads.
Never happier than in the mountains doing some ski-touring or just some nice off-piste. We’re avid sailors the rest of the year – the sea is a nice contrast to the snow. We’re friendly and sociable too, so do say hello if you see us!
Looking forward to another winter in The Alps – we hope to help you have a wonderful stay in St Martin de Belleville.
Henry
Hi, I’m Henry, I’m a 25-year-old from Southend-on-Sea in England. I’m the best skier and snowboarder in the Mitchell family, and of course, far handsomer than my dad! I completed my masters in International Business and Finance recently and have been fortunate enough to spend time travelling since.
I’m an avid traveller. I was lucky enough to spend the last ski season working in Niseko, Japan and the past year travelling around Asia and Australia with my brother Will. I’ve met some incredible people during my travels and made lasting memories.
I’m very excited and grateful to be spending the season this year in France, gaining knowledge and experience in the family business, and of course the incredible slopes and off-piste opportunities – and apres ski bars!
Will
Salut my name is Will I’m 24 years old. I’m someone who absolutely loves the outdoors. Whether it’s camping under the stars or catching waves while surfing, I thrive on these adventures.
People often find me down-to-earth, fun, and approachable, which I think reflects my easygoing nature. Skiing has been a part of my life since I was five, and recently, I had the incredible opportunity to do a ski season in Japan, which was unforgettable. I then travelled around parts of south east Asia and Australia. I hope to continue exploring the world as It’s become part of my life over the last couple years.
These experiences in nature truly define who I am and what I love to do.
Jules
Bonne journée mec, I’m Jules! I’m 21 years old from Australia, Queensland coast. I was born and raised in England, and moved to Aus when I was 10. I recently found my love for snowboarding during my first ski season in Japan last year! It was an incredible experience and I met the most amazing people.
Travelling is my biggest passion, and I have spent the past year exploring different parts of the world and all its culture. I am always up for an adventure, and enjoy most sports, reading, and playing guitar. I am happiest when I’m by the sea or in the snow!
I’m super grateful and excited to have the opportunity to continue making memories in France for this winter season.
