Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

A few years ago, £120 return, using SCGB special offer for limited places, booking within hours of the offer window opening (I think in October IIRC). Tickets were sold out within hours.

Crowded, uncomfortable non-reclining seats, woken at regular intervals by woman rustling plastic bag as she vomited into it. Very bleary-eyed family arrived in BSM 06.30. Mrs C said she'd never repeat it, and has remained true to her word Toofy Grin

oh dear! we live very close to Ashford, so it seems an option worth exploring. But I have two small children and they won't function well at 5.30 when the train is due to arrive in Moutiers. So we are leaning towards driving... but was interested to know how much the train would cost at half term. I know its 120 for other weekends. But Snowcarbon says you can't get it cheaper than £300-400 each for Half ter, even if you book instantly... so i wondered if anyone else had a different opinon

Like a coach at three times the price. And when we went by coach we were dropped right outside the chalet. wink

Laugh out loud! So driving is preferable all the way round. I wish they hadn't discontinued the french sleeper trains, those would have been absolutely perfect for us this year

Coaches are so much better nowadays and geared more to family travel.

I'm gutted about this too - I was looking at potentially doing a day trip to Les Arcs in Jan, but don't really fancy it on the eurostar. The sleeper would have been perfect.

@Blinder, ouch. I guess they're confident they can sell them all, and there's no opportunity for them to increase capacity in any way. So they charge as much as they can get away with.
