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

@vmac, another recommendation for the Birthday Bash. You will be in excellent company, in a beautiful ski area.

A bit confused - you say 'solo', then talk about 'we' and '2 of us'? Do you mean that you're a couple/pair prepared to share a room but that the other person doesn't ski? Or are you looking for two single-occupancy rooms?
I ask because most resorts have a wide range of studio and 1-bedroom apartments that might be available but you'd be self-catering. Would you be prepared to eat out or get takeaways? If you were, it might significantly broaden the choice.

Inside Out Skiing have a (rare) single room left on their trip to Baqueira, includes half day coaching. Based on my experience of them, its a very sociable week of enjoyable skiing, with civilised coffee breaks. I chose them as my first ski trip based on their photos of the coffee break cakes!

There's a sole occupancy room available in a catered chalet in La plagne on 15th jan if you're interested? You can probably get the room for £600,so add on flights etc.. Its a shared chalet so some couples etc but you wouldn't be the only solo. A couple of other 'older' skiers will be there so it may suit you? PM me if you're interested..

Hi
There's three of us going to Val Gardena(Ortisei) on 4th Feb, driving from Leicestershire. Staying in Dover Friday, getting an early ferry, and driving all the way Saturday. Coming back we're staying in Ypres and going to remembrance ceremony, then a restaurant. We're 58, 62 and 73 all intermediate. We've booked an apartment with Sunweb, and get Super Dolomiti pass, so plan to do Sella Ronda both ways round, Cortina one day, Kronplatz another, and the other 2 we don't know yet. Plan to smuggle some bacon and sausages for Full English a few days, and Carbonara the others. We'll eat out every night. Going in a Discovery Sport, so should be OK even if there's snow on the road. We're all taking equipment, but in a roof box hopefully(not 100% sure one set will fit in). The apartment sleeps up to 5, so we knew there would be at least 3 beds, but not 100% what there is. Guess we could take another if you fancy it.
Two of us are also going to Cervinia on 23rd March(we're going then, because our Ski Club of Great Britain leader, Howard, from last year will be there then). We've booked that with Inghams, and staying in The Red Dragon pub. You could join us on that if you like, but you'd probably have to find another for a twin room.
Good luck whatever you do.

Hello
For anyone else looking this year or next year have a look at the ski holidays Ruth Paul of Singlesport organises. I recently returned from a week in Courchevel Le Praz. Most people are traveling solo and stay in a number of chalets in single or shared rooms. Ski school is included. The whole holiday was good fun and there are many repeat customers. Highly recommended.
