 Poster: A snowHead
|
Looking for suggestions on a resort. We've skied in Arinsal for a few years, I'm looking for something a bit more challenging for myself but still easy enough for herself, she's comfortable taking her time on reds but can get nervous if the pace pics up.
Looking for somewhere we can have a drink or two in the evening and a good feed, but not too wild that we're going to be kept up all night with a banging nightclub across the road.
We usually Ski in march but may have to go in Jan this season as our dog minder is emigrating.

That's very inconsiderate of your dog minder.

You could try Les Arcs 1800...the Golf Hotel is perfectly fine, well positioned and is reasonably priced on certain dates in Jan (with 100 Euros each hotel credit + 100GBP off per booking, with Crystal). It is also linked with La Plagne.

@NeddySkiGoon agreed but short of locking her in the dog box what can i do. I bet she'll even enjoy herself too

@Weathercam, clearly your dogs like to go large when it comes to skis - they must be real powder hounds!

Saalbach-Hintertglemm, Mayrhofen, Ischgl, Tignes-Val d'Isere, La Plagne/Les Arcs, Courcheval. If you picked Ischgl or Val your wife would probably want to download at the end of each day but there's so much good skiing it's not a problem.

+1 for the golf hotel (though i booked direct) word of warning though it has a double helix staircase so best to take it easy on the pop or you'll spend hours trying to find your room.
