This coming season.......

Trying to book for one week around the New Year in one village at l'Espace Diamant. The lady who owns the place speaks only French and we dont so will see :) Just I am a little bit worried would we be lucky with the snow...

Val d'isere 30th dec to 6th jan. very pleased to be going back after a great week there last season. We're staying in a Ski Bonjour chalet.

Sorry, haven't been well this past week so not logging on as regularly.
Will be visiting Monterosa in mid January with another couple we skied with last year in ADH.
Been looking at it for a while now. Ticks all my boxes; quiet slopes, decent size area, high and snow sure, rustic and authentic, good lifts, and it's in Italy so food will be more our thing that France. The hotel is next to the main gondola - now that I am chuffed about!

Have not booked yet - but have my choice for the main trip in March narrowed down to:

Bacqueira in Spain, Madonna Di Campiglio or possibly Les Sybelles.

Going to spend a day doing a bit more research and talking to operators etc at one of the ski shows so that list could well change!

Our options were arabba, monterosa, folgarida and bad gastein this year. Arabba was sold out when I phoned, as was bad gastein, and monterosa has always been my favourite.

It's doubtful I'll ski twice this coming season so it was Important to go somewhere we really wanted to go to.

Monte Rosa, a top choice, if I may be so bold. Tied with St. Anton as the best ski holiday I've ever had (and I've had some ****** good ones!) Nothing like St Anton, by the way, but I expect you already know that. I reckon you'll have a ball there.
