New ski resorts for 2008

Just a word to say that we are feverishly working on next winter's ski production and although it's not quite in place yet I can reveal that there will be some new destinations and new accommodation.


The destinations: in the Alps we move into the '3 Valleys' with hotel accommodation in Les Menuires and Val Thorens. Another high-altitude resort (like Val Thorens) is Tignes where we will be offering superior hotel accommodation.


In the Pyrenees we add the resorts of Cauterets and Peyragudes to our list. We looked into adding an Andorran resort to our offer but, frankly, we feel that none of our customers really wants to ski in a car-park overlooking a shopping centre (Pas de la Casa).


Accommodation wise the big news is our move into chalets. We've secured some very nice wooden chalets in Isola 2000 (the sunny resort just north of Nice) which accommodate from 8 to 10 people in style. There will be others but I can't reveal just where, yet.

Also a friendly family hotel in Les Angles, which was sorely needed.


That's it for the moment: watch this space for news and don't forget that on-line booking is already possible for a number of our packages - at 5% off - and the rest of the packages will all be on the site by mid August.
