1800 is the quiet end of the resort, just a couple of bars and restaurants. One 4 man chair out of the village to Aime la Plagne where you can ski across to Plagne Centre or down to Montalbert(?) or take the bus to Plagne Centre. Stayed in a Silver Ski chalet a couple of years ago and had a great time. Was able to ski in & out for all but the last couple of days (it was Easter).
IMO La Plagne generally is not great for wild nights out or Apres. It is largely centred around self/chalet catering for families. The skiiing tho'was great through the whole area. If you manage to ski it out then you can always get the Gondola to Les Arc.
Have a great time.

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

Big tip no. 1 - get up early or late but nothing in-between because you will be dependant on one lift, like a lot of other people.
Other than that it is very (very) quiet in 1800 so a walk up to Plagne Centre for the bars and restaurants.

bladebasher, dunno since I'm a repeat visitor to Belle Plagne - the highest and most architecturally appealing bit of LP (not saying much... I know ) but there is a bus service round all the lower purpose-built bits. No idea what Plagne Centre is like of an evening but it can be a bit of a trudge midday if you are trying to ski/slide through it to other bits of the domaine. Frankly, flat as a pancake.
Having said all that, the overall area available and variety of terrain are likely to give you great holiday. If, like me, you are happy with one decent eatery and one acceptable bar within range, you are unlikely to be disappointed. If you need more scope, buy a T.O. rep a few drinkies and sound him/her out.
Whack 'La and Plagne' into the site's search engine for more......
Have a good one

No need to walk to go to Plagne Centre. You have a free bus. But If you want to walk, 30 minutes on the road (...), I think...
