@holidayloverxx, I don’t frequent the shops in Val, but I’ve never seen fresh herbs ( generic not tarragon soecific!) in Tignes, but have in Super U in Bourg.

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

@holidayloverxx, The large Spar near the Gare Routiere normally have fresh herbs. They are either in the fridge next to the cheese counter or in baskets opposite the fruit and veg island (or were last winter)

Is the Hotel Club Belambra in Val Claret the old Club Med building?

The one that calls itself Tignes Val Claret. (The other one still has Diva in the name - I stayed there last year and was impressed.)

I've stayed in the Diva (3*) many times, both pre and post Belambra. The "Belambra Clubs Hotel" has an extra star and is on the edge of the resort (upper level), beside a chairlift and ski school meeting point. I have never stayed there and don't know if it used to be the Club Med.

@sugarmoma666, Yes it is, just checked the pics, lots of shiny metal that looks a bit dated now. Sure it’s fine on the inside given it was Club Med

I'm just setting up the thread for next season, so please don't use this one again to avoid two running at once!,
If a Mod could lock this it would be much appreciated

Anyone want to share some advice, we have booked to come to Val from 26th December to 2nd Jan, 4 of us 2 adults and 2 kids. Youngest son is 9 and skis, daughter 11 and snowboards and we snowboard. We have had 2 weeks in Tignes at ESF previously and lessons at Hemel pre COVID. Do we put them in ski school for 3 days or is there an option that we could get an instructor who can help skiers and boarders?
We are staying in Val, I have boarded for years but haven't had a lesson /instructor for years. Any advice welcome, I know Steve Angus is renowned but can he help the boarders?
Also what is the Green Triangle and what is the perfect day for our family , out of Daille, Last year our kids loved Prairond from Toviere and the blues of Palafour. Edelweiss and runs from Borsat were fun of them. I have no idea where the kids when on ski school!
