Ski and Snowboard News, Deals, and Events

Esprit Ski have announced savings of more than £150 per person on stays at their Chalet Hotel Ducs de Savoie during the second main week of the popular French February school holiday period, from Feb. 21.

The deal brings prices down by £152 per person to £399, a rare saving at this busy week of the season.

The price is based on a family of four taking a catered chalet board holiday (half-board plus afternoon tea with free drinks during the evening meal on six nights per week). It includes return flights from London Stansted (regional flights available at a supplement) and free baby listening/child patrol if required. 

Families will find good facilities in the resort, although some with limited availability, which should be booked in advance at this busy time of the season. 

The area set aside for snow kindergartens around Val d'Isère's slopes is greater than the entire skiable terrain of many lesser resorts. 

A full range of special children's programs then extends right up to 18 years, including a 'try everything for sliding on snow' special for over 14s, which takes in Telemark, mogul skiing, and snowboarding, as well as current trend snow sports.  Off the slopes there's a Games Arcade for teenagers.
