Anywhere in the world with a £1200 limit where would you go? Would you spend the full amount of go somewhere in Europe and save some of that money?

That's not really that much money if you factor in lift pass, equipment hire and spending money. But I'd love to go to Ischgl and might just manage it on that budget...

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

dmitch1987, I blew very nearly £1000 on a low-key holiday at Les Deux Alpes, staying at €38 B&B hotel, and cutting back on the amount I spent eating out and on drink. That did include taxis across Paris - but excluded transport (by train) to Grenoble. It also excluded equipment hire, except for some on-piste skis for one day. You could save more if you self-catered, though. The decrease in spending power of the £ against both the € and the $US is a factor.

dmitch1987, Sorted out a trip to Whistler in April for a bit less than £1200 and that includes a lift pass for 10 out of 12 days skiing. (is also during school holidays)
There are 2 of us and its self catering (very close to the lifts). Paid for it all before the £ fell by so much , so would prob be about 20% more at the moment. Cant wait and hoping for snow and no rain.

Drluvski, it will end up costing a whole lot more than £1200 if you're going self-catering...

Just back from Val Gardena and spent £2100.00 between 2 of us. Incl H/B, Flights, Transfers, and spending money. Ate and drank on the mountain every day, drank in hotel and local bars.

I spent 2 weeks in Lannersbach which links into the Mayrhofen area for £1400 all in last year so you should be able to do a week there for that no problem.

dmitch1987, There's a great wine bar in Chamonix where the £1,200 would just about cover the first bottle...that would be my choice.
