Poster: A snowHead

These look like the 2 cheapest options for a family of 4 from Edinburgh. Any views, oh Lords of the Piste?

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

Scheffau is a quaint little village and very quiet. It's a bus ride (or a gentle blue run down, snow permitting, then bus back) to the lifts where there are good ski/boot lockers. There are a couple of nice traditional bars there (although one of them is horribly smoky) and some lovely family-run hotels. It's definitely a good place for families if you have kids.
Same ski area as Soll, just a different way up. I had one night out in Soll whilst staying in Scheffau and it's certainly much bigger and busier. It looks like there are many more hotels but it's still a bit of a journey to the lifts. The nightlife I experienced wasn't my thing at all. Far too Benidorm (drunken Brits removing clothing and generally being loud and irritating). But I think if you avoid places like the Whiskey Muhle and Red Horse, there are many better options for evening entertainment.
The piste area is huge and has something for everyone with good fast lifts and plenty of variety.

THanks all. Booked Soll as it was cheap, under £2300 for four from Edinburgh.
Crystal website a bit weird at the mo, every time you click continue the price comes down. You have to select your rooms and continue before it applies the £50 a head discount. Just so you know...
