I have stayed with ice and fire earlier this year in Plagne 1800 - had a great time and would definitely recommend them as a company.

I'm with them in a couple of weeks in Plagne Village - so far the service has been great and prompt - Heather is tops.
I'll let you know how we get on.

11th - so three weeks really. Staying at the Bon Vie Chalet. Another snowHead, Graham Warren, is also there (different chalet in Les Coches) the same time so we're looking to hook up as we'll both be on our own - my wife will be there but she doesn't ski.
Just booked my 6 day Paradiski Pass this morning

I stayed in Cahelt Genepi - location was good, only 2 mins from bus stop, or a 5 min walk (including up a hill) to the piste down into 1800. Bars in 1800 were about 5 mins walk away.

I've stayed in the Chalet Campenules in Les Coches with Ice and Fire and its a nice chalet and company, its only a few minutes walk to a red run which will take you down to the Plan Bois chairlift, where from the top, you can decide to either go up to Belle Plagne or go down to the Cable Car to Les Arc.
I enjoyed myself there and I would definitely go back if I decided to go to the Paradiski area again.

I've stayed with Ice & Fire a couple of years ago, probably the nicest Chalet i've stayed in. Not just in terms of the actual accommodation but the food and service. When i went i stayed in Chalet Genepi which was an easy walk down the hill to the lift or 2 minutes up the hill to the bus stop.

You know it makes sense.

Im also interested hearing any feedback as im looking for a week away either in Feb or Mar before the EOSB. I'll be travelling and skiing solo so would be nice to meet others in the same boat.

@Ricklovesthepowder,
I stayed at Chalet Campanules in Les Coches last year. It is a really great location at the bottom of one of the best ski areas in Paradiski and close to the link with Les Arcs, so equally easy to access either Les Arcs or La Plagne. Les Coches is a nice village too, with a great restaurant (I can't remember the name). I also found the owners really helpful, although they weren't actually in residence at the chalet. Another bonus was that there were single rooms without a supplement. On the less positive side, I thought the chalet itself and food was pretty average for the price. I was a bit surprised how small and tired-looking it was compared with how it looked on the website, as were some of the others staying there. There were only about 14 of us staying there that week and it felt full. I think it would feel pretty overcrowded if it was fully booked out to maximum capacity of over 20.
