Paradise in Paradiski

Paradiski has become the go-to spot for British skiers, in large part due to the excellent resorts like La Plagne and Les Arcs. This ski area provides nearly guaranteed snow, is easy to reach, and has penty of great places to stay and eat. La Plagne is perhaps the more family friendly spot, offering great slopes for beginners and the advanced (but less exciting the kid-free intermediate skiiers), while Les Arcs has something for everyone amongst the five different villages.

Accommodation
Looking for a solid hotel, why not try the Hotel L’Aiguille in Les Arcs?

Touring the 3 Valleys

Meribel is THE resort to check out in the 3 Valleys. Located right in the centre, it is a particular favourite with British skiiers and snowboarders alike for its great terrain, snowparks and number of excellent tree runs. The resort has top quality accommodations, gourmet restaurants and an excellent après-ski scene
 
 
Accommodation
For the ultimate pampering, Hotel Le Kaila is the place to be.
Looking for something a bit more affordable, try Les Arolles
Looking for a house to cook in? This listing should do the trick!
 
Food & Wine
Clos Bernard - Stunning location in the woods with delicious Savoyard cuisine
La Taverne - Savoyard classics in a cosy, traditional setting with an extensive wine list

 
Experiencing Espace Killy

Tignes and Val d’Isere are two of the top places to stay in the Espace Killy ski area. The high-altitude slopes are likely to be covered in snow and ready for your skis, and the the multitude of ski-in/ski-out accommodation makes it almost too easy to start the day right. Val d’Isere, known for being the prettier of the two with a  wider choice of après-ski, comes at a price, as it is also one of the most expensive resorts in France.
 
Accommodation
In Tignes, it seems you can’t do better than Village Montanta
With some of the hotels in the area giving us sticker shock, we suggest this listing with 5 bedrooms as a great option for a few families or big group of friends.
 
Food & Wine
La Ferme des 3 Capucines - Beautiful, traditional place with excellent Fondue!
SoBar - Fine wines at a distinctly different kind of Alpine bar 

 
Can't make it to the slopes this year?

Then bring a taste of the mountains into your home. The wines of Savoie are the perfect winter whites - ideal for pairing with your mountain inspired specialties, whether it's raclette, fondue, or tartiflette!

 
Check out our selection of winter wines and stock up before you hit the slopes, or keep in your home for a cozy night in! They really are best enjoyed by the fire.
