Beautiful private family home, formerly the winter residence of Baroness Ilia van Harinxma thoe Slooten, is situated on the very edge of Crans-Montana. Its special warm atmosphere, combined with luxury, open log fires, stripped wooden floors, oil paintings and antiques bring character and warmth to rival any Alpine chalet. It will without doubt, leave you with a lasting impression: modern comfort and amenities combined with classic furnishings render this chalet into a truly unique place. Over the years many famous personalities have enjoyed the chalet and its gorgeous views over the Rhone Valley with over fifteen 4000 meters + mountains, including the Weisshorn (4505), the Matterhorn / Cervin (4477), the Mont Blanc (4807), the Dent Blanche (4357).
About the location: Crans-Montana has so much to offer: High mountains (with a glacier on 3,000 metres), for summer and winter skiing, cross country skiing. Authentic places like Sion and Vale d’Anniviers will make your holiday very enjoyable. Taste the real Valaisan atmosphere in the local restaurants and pubs. There is a very adequate choice of some 80 restaurants, some 20 bars, there is a casino, cinema's etc. And don't forget the après ski.
The chalet is located in Bluche, a small village which is situated next to Crans-Montana. Bluche has four restaurants and a small supermarket.
Golf: There are three 18 hole golf courses are found in the region, day tickets can be bought for about 40 EUR :
in Crans, in Sierre (15 kiometres) and Sion (20 kilometres). For further details, please ask us.
Ski: Below the 3000m high glacier Plaine Morte one finds a skiing area which leaves nothing to be desired. Skiers and snowboarders from beginners to experts will all find a vast choice of suitable slopes. Besides skiing and snowboarding you can have a go at ski bobbing or, if you favour a less adrenaline pumping pastime, langlauf.
As it lies well above the snow line you can ski year round on Plaine Morte.
The lower pistes have a very good track record regarding snow cover. In addition there are more then 150 snow machines which help in keeping the pistes in first class condition. The Crans -Montana-Aminona area is served by a large number of modern ski-lifts. Ques are therefore virtually unkown.
An attractive feature of the Crans -Montana- Aminona resort is that you can cover the entire area, from Crans Cry'd Erre in the west until Aminona in the east, skiing. Bus or car transfers to reach certain lifts are not necessary.

This was our 2nd stay here as it is the perfect chalet that met our requirements for Crans golfing trip. Well furnished kitchen to prepare meals and the jacuzzi fantastic for rejuvenating after golf. Hosts Tiago and Claire whom we met were friendly and responsive to our queries. This is the “designated” accommodations whenever we make next trip to Crans to golf.

We love this mansion chalet in the mountains. A sturdy and enduring well built old house, with splendid art and antiques for which Ralph Lauren, Valentino, and Wes Anderson would all crawl naked through broken glass. Plenty of lovely south facing bedrooms, with splendid views. Vraiment la Suisse de notre jeunesse.

Romantisch-Antikes Getaway für die grosse Gruppe
Wunderbar. Diese diskret gelegene Perle mit wunderbarem Ausblick über das Wallistal hat uns ein wunderbares verlängertes Wochenende erlaubt. Das Haus/Chalet, das mit seinem antiken Innern schon fast an ein altehrwürdiges Schloss/Anwesen erinnert, hat unserer erweiterten Familie diverse schöne Plätzen drinnen (Feuerstelle) und draussen (Jacuzzi) zum Zusammenkommen offeriert. Wir werden sehr gerne wieder kommen, und überlegen uns für das nächste Mal ein Murder Mystery Dinner. Zu guter Letzt: Tigo war ein super Host, sehr zuvorkommend and freundlich. Wir danken!

Entspannter Aufenthalt
Das Chalet ist riesig und bietet viele Rückzugsmöglichkeiten.
Einige Teile, Räume und Mobilar sind etwas in die Jahre gekommen und bedürften etwas mehr "Liebe".
Grundsätzlich hat alles gepasst und wir sind gut klar gekommen.
Die Küche ist super ausgestattet und bietet extrem viel Geschirr und Zubehör. Der Salon mit Kamin und dem tollen Blick ist genial!

familieferie i et skønt hus i et skønt område
Huset er overdådigt flot og smukt, og med en interessant baggrundshistorie. Vi var 16 mennesker i alt, 3 i 70'erne, 6 yngre/midaldrende, og 1 ung (20 år), 3 teenagere (14-16) og 2 børn (5-6 år), og huset var perfekt og meget charmerende for os alle. Desuden er det beliggende i et helt fantastisk bjergområde, hvor der både kan gås superflotte ture, ses skønne udsigter, og med en række også børnevenlige aktiviteter tæt på. Den udendørs jacuzzi var populær hos både børn, unge og voksne.

Special villa for our big family.
It was a wonderful traditional chalet. Each bedroom had its own character and all were in perfect condition. The layout of the house was perfect, had a beautiful front living room with a fire place and piano for after meal chats and games. Had a TV room downstairs which we used as a den for the kids who all played their board games down there which was perfect. The chef that was suggested was fantastic and very friendly plus the assistant that was provided was extremely helpful and was always there to attend to my big families every need. The villa had hardly any neighbours and the view was just incredible, nothing blocking the view and the sunrises and sunsets were truly magical. On top of this the sauna was a great addition as well as the well positioned hot tub to watch the sunrise and sunset. I would truly recommend this villa as it was a perfect stay!!

Glorious chalet in beautiful location
This magnificent, spacious chalet was perfect for a family reunion where 15 of us (4 generations) gathered to celebrate a 90th birthday. Lots of beautiful, large bedrooms with ensuites and a huge, comfortable living room where we could all be together, as well as a dining room with a long table and enough chairs for the whole group. Spectacular views from virtually every room and a lovely garden. The kitchen was well equipped with plenty of crockery, cutlery and glassware. Cleaners came twice during our 11 day stay and the host was very pleasant - easy to communicate with and responding quickly to queries. Loved our stay here and hope to be back one day.

Perfect Location for family gatherings
We have recently returned from a weeks stay at this beautiful property. Perfect location in private grounds, yet close to all amenities. The wonderful views of the mountains and valleys from every room will stay with us forever! Excellent for large family gatherings ( we were 13 in total) - so much space ! And unique history. The owner, Tiago, was most helpful, responding to any requests, and giving suggestions for places to visit. So thank you again for a memorable stay.

An excellent ski week in the Swiss Alps
We stayed at La Grande Baronne in Feb 2015 for a family ski week (two families - 4 adults and 5 kids in total). We were looking for a place where we could spend some quality time together, while also enjoying the views and activities of the Swiss Alps. And, this place was perfect for both.
The accommodations were perfect (with room for another family or two). Most all the bedrooms (except the basement) had porch access with mountain views and their own bathrooms. And, as an added touch, bathrobes, slippers and water (still and sparkling) were provided in every room. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you could possibly need, including enough coffee (Nespresso pods) for several coffee-addicts. The dining area sat all of us comfortably (with room for many more). And, the living room was very comfortable, especially by a warm fire. The piano was an extra nice benefit as one of our friends is a great piano player who provided extra entertainment (he doesn't come with the place, but I'm sure he'd consider joining you if you paid his way...). After a full day of skiing, we also enjoyed the hot tub, just steps from the kitchen door.
From a location perspective, it is very well located (although not ski in/out). It was just a 5 minute drive to Crans Montana (I believe the Violette ski lift is the closes one). And, of course, of same distance to the main areas of Crans and Montana where there are plenty of shops and restaurants - although, we spent most of our time in the comfort of the chalet, and only ventured out to eat once (great fondue at Petit Paradis, which was a 5-minute walk from the chalet.) While a few of us ski'd every day, others ventured to Gruyere and other places for day trips, which were also fairly close by (an hour drive or so).
Tiago was also great in helping us with anything we needed. From ordering bread delivery in the morning (great bread and croissants) to helping with all the questions we had before our visit.
Overall, I would highly recommend staying here. We cant wait to go back - and are considering adding another family to the mix next time.

Most beautiful place in Europe
Since my mother wanted to celebrate her 70st birthday surrounded by her children and grandchildren we choose this chalet and stayed in it for 2 weeks with 15 persons. And it turned out to be the ideal place. The chalet is spacious and so comfy! We all had our own lovely bedroom. For my mother it was important that her bedroom was on the same floor as the dining room sitting room and kitchen. Our kids adored the home cinema and for the small ones there were plenty of toys. The chalet itself is very private but in a couple of minutes’ drive you are in the center of Crans Montana with lots of shops and restaurants. We did many trips in the region, all close by, like Sion and Val d’Anniviers with his beautiful old wooden houses. Our kids did the adventure park, the aqua park, did the gletcher Plaine Morte, we swam in 3 different beautiful lakes and further we made some mountain walks, all with stunning views and easy to walk for all of us.. This is the best chalet we've stayed anywhere in the world in terms of balance between location, comfort, views and practicality. We will surely come back!

STUNNING VIEW!!!
We had a fabulous ski holiday. We were with two families with in total 14 people. The chalet is wonderful, homely, very warm and comfortable with two wonderful log fires and fabulous views over many alps of 4,000+ metres. Although we come already since years (8!) it is each time again a great experience to first take a sauna right after skiing and then go in the jaccuzzi outside in the snow watching the sunset with a glass of wine in your hand. I love the combination of old character with modern comfort. The bedrooms are spacious and practical and there is a Canotzet and grand salon, although we were with a big group we still all had our privacy. We are not sure if we go skiing next year, however if we go we book definitely again."

Top for big families with children
"We had a wonderful time in the chalet La Baronne. It is a fantastic typical European high standard chalet. We really thought we lived in our own house, it was so cosy and spacious. Despite of all the beautiful objects in the house we were not afraid for our little children they would damage anything. There were 16 of us including 8 very young children. Crans Montana has a amazing place for teaching our little kids to ski: the golf! The owner arranged 2 nannies for us and a super chef from Italy. The only moment we did not like was when we had to head back home to the big apple. Thank you family Jurgens, we loved your place!

Spacieux, belle vue, calme et confort
"Chalet spacieux avec vraiment une très belle vue sur la vallée du Rhone et le Val d'Anniviers. Le chalet est agréablement meublé, classique, mais quand- même beaucoup de confort.Calme absolu, excellente exposition, cinq minutes de la cabine quí t'amène aux pistes à 3000 mètres. Chambres exceptionnelement spacieuses. Nos enfants ont 'habité' ou dans le jacuzzi extérieur ou dans la cave ou se trouve un home cinéma!

Onvergetelijk verblijf
September is misschien wel de mooiste maand om in de Zwitserse Alpen te verblijven. Het is er dan nog heerlijk warm, de meeste toeristen zijn verdwenen, maar alles is nog wel open. We waren met ons achten. We hebben heerlijk gewandeld, zowel hoog in de bergen, langs prachtige beekjes als beneden in het dal waar we een wijnroute hebben gelopen ( inclusief proeverij!). Het chalet is zeer confortabel, zeer klassiek ingericht maar nog meer confortabel dan een 5 sterren hotel vanwege de gigantische slaapkamers. Elke avond zaten we op het balkon e genieten van het prachtige uitzicht en later een fenomenale sterrenhemel. Voor ons was het een onvergetelijke vakantie!

A clear 5 Star accomodation in a stunning location
My family and I stayed in this beautiful chalet in February 2010. Although I have been in many great places all over the world I had never seen before such a beautiful house. It has a lovely mixture of old antiques with modern comfort.
Our party consisted of two families with children of 4,6,9 & 16 years old. The chalet was great for all age groups with plenty to keep the children occupied, whilst the adults enjoyed the sauna and the outside hot tub with it's incredible view. The second sitting room, also with home cinema, was ideal for the children.
The beds were fantastically comfortable with excellent quality bed linen and bedding. The kitchen was superbly equipped and the wonderful sitting room and log fire were a joy to spend a relaxed evening in. The owners Tiago and Klaartje were are at hand to advise and assist with any needs you may have. A little piece of heaven.

The jewel of the alps!
Our first visit to Crans-montana was a massive success. My family,wife and two boys(7 and 13),my brothers family, wife and two girls (5 and 6 ) and my sister booked the chalet having not skiied or holidayed together for a long time.The chalet was perfect for all of us and the layout meant we could still have are own family time when needed. All the facilities at the chalet were top class and we especially liked the luxury of the sauna and the outdoor jaccuzzi which aided recovery after some serious skiing.
Access to the ski slopes is really easy and even with young tired kids we had no problem getting there and back.
We spent the most beautiful holiday in this great place. Owners were super to deal with, instant replies to any questions during the booking process, and everything was so welcoming on arrival. It felt more like a home.
