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 :-)

Poster: A snowHead
Hello theres snowheads,

This year i went to Tignes Les Brévieres in January being 2 couples and 1 friend and it was amazing!

We loved it!!! Very Happy

This year thought i´m just goig with my my girlfriend so i´m looking for some advice...

I´m intermediate snowboarder and she´s beginner but OK wink

There are so many options out there that i need to narrow down.

Mainly i´m looking "cheap" , goodvalue , i´m traveling from London , 1 week , doesn´t matter if it´s Austria , France or Italy.

Main issues: Probably get transfer and don´t hire car , if possible romantic snowHead snowHead , that´s about it!

I´ve seen one apartment in Les Balcons in 2 Alps from a post from last year but i know that i can find better!

I´m all ears

Thank you Cool Very Happy Very Happy

I'm also looking for the above! All the major ski holiday providors are geared up for groups of four or more so you end up having to pay for an under occupancy charge which is dead money. Does anyone know of any good websites that offer holidays suitable for two people?

Also interested in a week's skiing, France, Austria or Italy, late Feb early March...

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

Try www.alpineanswers.co.uk. They have a range of deals from some of the biggest TOs that get better the longer you are willing to watch the clock tick down. There is a mix of travel not/included for drivers.

Aside from whole-chalet lets, all the offers on the above site are for two.

Hi Jony azenhas. Depends a bit on your version of romantic?! Private apartment on the slopes with you cooking dinner for her by candlelight (sounds like it), or a nice hotel and lots of dinners out, or a catered chalet with staff and other guests to serenade you over dinner every night?! Is your main priority to start by finding the right ski area, then choosing where to stay, or the right place to stay, then hoping its a good ski area? Can hopefully help more if we know a bit more wink

dredgey.. you will find lots of independent chalets will take 2's and 3's to fill spaces they have around larger groups, especially for march.

cheers

Thanks flowa , i´ll have a look Smile

Alex , because i´ve always been in France (Tignes , Val , Méribel , Val Thorens) i was thinking towards Áustria or Italy.

I´ve heard and seen on the web beautiful things about Áustria and also the Dolomites (scenery).

Mainly apartment because i enjoy my cooking and i´m going a little bit on a budget but i´m open to all ideas!!

For example if i would see a small chalet even sharing but the place was stunning i would go for it!

The other concern is travel , i´ve always been thru geneva and to go to Italy would be different and maybe Áustria.

I´ve heard about a beautiful lake in Áustria but i can´t remember the name (or was it Itay?!) ahahahahah.

In terms of skiing it only has to be "OK" , i´m going more on a relaxed trip (Val disére is still my favourite) so plenty of blues and some reds would be fine!
Very Happy

So stunning scenery , relaxed atomesphere (although we like to party) , best bunch for the buck , that´s about it..

I´ve thought about Ishgl , Domomites , and Switzerland as well but i only can find "expensive" options!

Thanks for all the help , what i really need is to see options and go from there wink

...found what I was looking for right under my nose with Crystal Ski. Normally I'm a bit pesimistic of the package holiday offerings but I found a week self catering in La Tania, 2nd March, passes, ski carriage for me, hire and lessons for my wife, all in for £1,400. I had figured the 3 valleys was out of budget but I'm super chuffed!

That´s good! I´ve stayed in Méribel 2 years ago very cheap but we where a group.

I´ve been in La Tania before skiing and it´s lovely Smile Smile Very Happy
