La Terrasse du Mont-Blanc can host residential seminars, study days, leadership meetings and weddings, with up to 60 people in a meeting, 70 at a cocktail reception and 50 at a seated meal. The wooden chalet is hired out in full and has 15 bedrooms, each with a private bathroom. It stands on route du Perron in the village of Cordon, in Haute-Savoie, facing Mont Blanc and a few minutes from Sallanches.
Seminars and company events
The chalet sells two business formats. The first is the residential seminar: a leadership meeting, a project launch, a company evening or a team retreat over several days, with the group sleeping on site. The second is the study day: a meeting, training session or workshop held in the chalet for a single day, with lunch served on site.
Work sessions take place in the living room of the chalet, which also serves for receptions. When the weather allows, the terrace takes over for an outdoor workshop, a lunch or a dinner facing the peaks. The chalet lists Wi-Fi, a 55-inch television, a projector, a microphone, a speaker and a paperboard. Mountain team building is part of the offer, with activities on site and skiing nearby, and the team helps build the program and the menus ahead of arrival.
Weddings and receptions
The chalet hosts weddings, birthdays, family reunions and anniversaries. Wedding receptions take up to 70 guests for a cocktail, and outdoor ceremonies, including secular ceremonies, can be held in the garden in summer. A wedding caterer can be brought in, and a local guide, Enzo, helps plan mountain activities for guests who stay on. In winter, the garden is under snow and becomes a play area for groups.
Rooms and capacities
The chalet works as one venue rather than a set of separate rooms. The living room, built around a suspended fireplace, holds up to 60 people in a meeting layout. Receptions reach 70 guests for a cocktail. Seated meals can serve up to 50. The terrace and the garden add outdoor space with a view of Mont Blanc in good weather.
Accommodation
There are 15 bedrooms, each with a private bathroom. The site states that the chalet sleeps up to 45 people. A sauna is included in the hire at no extra cost, and the chalet also has a barbecue, raclette and fondue sets, and free parking.
Catering
The chalet has a fully equipped professional kitchen. Your caterer or a private chef can prepare and serve meals on site for up to 50 seated guests. For seminars, the venue proposes a caterer offer based on Haute-Savoie produce, and lunch can be served indoors or on the terrace depending on the season.
History and setting
The chalet is run by One Experience, a group that organizes events and operates hotels in Brittany and Haute-Savoie. Cordon is a village on the slopes facing the Mont Blanc range, with hiking, paragliding, skiing, tennis, climbing and whitewater sports in the area. A free village shuttle runs to the ski slopes in winter.
Getting there
Geneva airport is about 45 minutes away by road. The address is 50 route du Perron, 74700 Cordon. Sallanches, the nearest town, is a few minutes' drive down the valley. Free parking is available at the chalet.
