Roy Hockley, They have operations in Montalbert and have a base in Aime, I have only heard good about them. I don't have any first hand experience I'm afraid.

Stayed in la tania in one of their catered chalets 2 years ago. Clean chalet, staff fantastic and food great. Really good value.

Stayed with them in Les Menuires at the Chaltes Bruyeres. Can't fault them. Plenty of staff around at all times and our hosts were fab.
Chalets comfortable and clean.

Used them in Vallandry - only complaint was that they didn't allow enough enough time for the traffic on the return transfer so it was a bit of a rush.

Sorry to re-start an old thread. Comments all sound good. Any more recent experiences? Also, don't suppose anybody knows a discount code for SkiAmis? Thanks
|
|
|
|
|
You know it makes sense.
|
Fuyrther to my below, does anybody know if the SkiClubofGB discount applies just to the one registered SkiClub member, or all people on the holiday if the SkiClub member is making the booking?

Otherwise you'll just go on seeing the one name:

Went in April with them to Les Menuires; excellent. They are already offering pretty good value, but sometimes discount last moment. What`s your discount in Les Carroz? I am off there Feb 5 th. Any recommendations ?

cstreat, thanks for the message.
We offer a 5% snowheads discount but I'm sure a polite request could raise it to 10%!
I have loads of recommendations for LC. You'll have a great trip.
Skiing - if snowy, stay in the Les Carroz or Morrillon bowls. Have never hadbad visibility due to the trees.
Flaine - get up to the area near the snowpark (nobody else skis there)
Off piste - the Gers bowl is an absolute must
Flaine Mountain Restaurants - Epiciere just above the Flaine villages and Lac de Gers (via Gers bowl or Cascades blue run).
Massif Restaurants - Igloo in Morrillon Valley, Les Molliets, and Chalet des Tronchets (off piste access only, between LC and Morrillon bowls)
Les Carroz Restaurants
Best - Servages D'Armelle Hotel (but expensive and some way from the village)
Other very good - Neve, Petits Ognions, Bistrot Grill du Gron (fantastic steak, quirky)
Cheaper - a few pizzerias, Marlow Bar does decent, fairly cheap food
All the best....

Simo1234 - I booked Eurostar tickets using SK discount - it only applied to the one member so I upgraded membership to family member as the saving was greater than the cost of the upgrade.
