Hi guys,

Me and 4 other friends (2 are 18, 3 are 17), are thinking of going on a ski holiday (preferably in France and around the Alps) in Easter 2014. 4 of us have already been on many ski holidays. We were wondering what the best ski resort was around this area? We are from the UK, and like backcountry and a bit of freestyle as well, and we would also like to go clubbing after skiing, so Aprés Ski is also important ;) As only 1 of us has got a proper 'job', money is scarce and so really we wouldn't want to be paying more than £500 per person including everything apart from food. I know this is a big ask, but we don't mind staying is 2 star hotels/apartments etc.

Any help whatsoever to point us in the right direction would be highly appreciated.

Thanks, Ryan.

£500 per person is a pretty low budget for the Easter holidays, to include everything like lift passes. I should think you'd have to go self-catering to achieve that.
Have you tried http://www.rocketski.com they often have cheap holidays that might suit you.

Chamonix, stay in hostel (Vagabond), B&B (Hotel le Chamonix or equivalent) or Chamonix Sud and all will be well within budget. Cheap flights and transfer. As much backcountry or touring as you could wish for.

Does it have to be Easter holidays? You're going to find it so much more expensive than the week before.
