TRAVEL
Morillon is in the Haute-Savoie region of France, about half way between Geneva and Chamonix.
ROAD ACCESS:
Road access to the region is very good. We have driven many times from Calais, and using the pay roads it takes about 8 hours, it is about 560 miles. The autoroute tolls cost about £35 each way per vehicle. A recommended route is:
Calais-A26-Reims-(A4)-A26-Troyes-A5-A31-Dijon-A39-(via Dole)-Bourge en Bresse-A40-(towards Chamonix) but get off the motorway at Cluses and head for Samoens.
Here is a more detailed map of the Haute-Savoie. Morillon is just before Samoens.
AIR ACCESS
The nearest international airport is Geneva. As you can see from the map above Morillon is only a 60 minute drive from Geneva airport. There are bus tranfers from the airport to the skiing resorts in the Haute-Savoie each day during the skiing season.
