limey off piste,
a) Haute Nendaz by car or by bus
b) Jeez -- so many you'll find the best in an hour
c) ?? - in resort or Sion .. Nendaz has the luxury of ski lockers so that may sway your choice
d) You're in Switzerland -- dont worry about money.

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

limey off piste, I'm jealous. Want to go back to Crans, where I spent many weeks of my childhood. One of my earliest childhood memories is of the most spectacular son et lumiere in Sion - between the two castles. (At least I think there were two castles, it's a long time ago!)
But I don't know the answers to your questions, sorry.

limey off piste, a) Siviez, drive there and park, fastest way into 4 vallees. Not sure about the others.

Train to station by verbier. Taxi connection both ends should do it.

limey off piste, a) Veysonnaz ....only 20 mins from Sion
b) Plenty, especially in the mountains, Les Chottes, Cambuse, Matze etc etc
c) Neige Aventure (they also have ski lockers)
d) The skiing is great and you're linked to all the 4 Vallees 'satellites', good skiing over to Verbier. Le Caboulis is one of the best mountain
restaurants ever. Avoid Siviez at peak times....you'll have to park miles down the road.
Pedantica, You're right about the castles....Tourbillon and Valere... they are beautiful and brilliantly lit ATM (nightime) Crans is still lovely though.
