Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

That is indeed an exceptionally tight budget - I'd say it was virtually impossible, really, in France (and I can do cheap!). You might be able to get within that budget in one of the cheaper countries - Bulgaria, maybe?

I think you should be able to find a lastminute.com catered chalet or half-board deal including flight at around £399. Just make sure it's in a resort where the local pass is under £100.

Pretty doable if you ask me, but you won't be able to be fussy. For example right now there's a 6 day h/b Club Chalet Gourmet trip via coach on 12th March to Morzine for £359 and a 5 day lift pass @ 130€ brings that under £500 based on 2 sharing. If you wait nearer the time you'll probably get far better bargains (and fly).

Burtonboy83, you could always come with me to the Pyrenees. I'm driving an 8 seater MPV with roofbox out on the 9th of March and back the 23rd (see http://snowheads.com/ski-forum/viewtopic.php?t=71350 ). If sharing travel expenses that'd be about £100pp just for the travel (inc. 1 night on 24hr Biscay ferry). You'd probably find an apartment for £150-200pp. Lift pass £150-200. Assuming you're bringing skis, that'd come to £400-499pp, but for a 2 week holiday (excluding food & drink).

I can provide an apartment in St Gervais that week for £85pp*. Lift pass €180; gear hire €80 minimum; just travel, food and drink thereafter. Can be done, just.
*with apologies for blatant advertorial.

Thanks for the advice guys. beequin, Very intersted in your offer, I'm just looking into flights and car hire now. Will get back to you soon. Very Happy
Thanks for the offer crosbie, but the dates make it impossible as a friend has their OU deadline that week. Much appreciated though and hope you enjoy your trip.

*When I say to include everything, I mean travel, Accom (self catering) lift pass and equipment hire... I have had quotes from the usual TOs for around £550 so just need to shave a bit off so def do-able!!

Thanks all

don't eat or drink - lose a nice lot of weight! But surely you can hire skis in Brides les Bains for less than £160?
