Many families have been here for generations, and we still have a little village square with its church, local school, bakery and pharmacy. People say hello to each other, there's a good sense of community.""
""At heart, Saint-Martin remains an authentic French village," says Emma, "it doesn't feel over-commercialised compared to some mountain resorts. We have a year-round life with the advantage of having some of Europe's best ski runs on the doorstep. You can take a gondola and be at the summit within 25 minutes.""
