Poster: A snowHead

I've had a Fb update from Pierre et Vac.... Apparantly there was a fire at the hotel yesterday and it's currently closed. I hope no SH's are booked in there anytime soon.

That's not good, hope everyone is safe.
When I worked in 1650 back in 1992 I was involved in a fire in the sports shop that was (Still is?) Patrice Sport. We had to evacuate the Hotels either side and the apartments above.
Then find accomodation for the night for everyone, it amazed me how accomodating everyone was, punters and saisonniere alike, we stuffed people in everywhere by 3am I was knackered and then realised that I hadn't got myself anywhere as my room had just gone up in flames
My abiding memory was the Hotel owners mournful wail 'Mon Hotel...'
We got lucky, only one hospitalised and he recovered well. Ironically it was him who had dropped a cigarette butt in a wood workshop.
Best wishes to all involved.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

The Residence du Lac is where the fire was rather than the Hotel du Golfe.
The residence being considered a private "habitation" rather than a hotel, it didn't have (and it seems quite legally) any fire alarms so basically, residents ahd to go around waking every one up and then make it out through the smoke.
When you think it was the middle of the night, it's a miracle there are no serious casualties...
The slate roof made the fire crews work difficult by "hiding" dormant fire. A heating device is suspected to be the cause.

Kruisler, I've often wondered why there were no smoke detectors in our apartments, although we do have a fire alarm in the lobby we can sound.

Hi there everyone,
I represent Pierre & Vacances in the UK and Ireland.
The Hôtel du Golf was unaffected and was only evacuated as a precaution. Hotel guests are back in the rooms, any customers booked into the hotel are fine. However the Residence du Golf (adjacent to the Hotel) is closed for the rest of the season and any customers booked there will be offered alternatives. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
Please see our Facebook page for more details:

Thanks!

athena_surf, thanks for the clarification, the facebook update i had says residence hotel du golf hence the confusion, perhaps an update to that fb page might help for those confused.
