Hi,

Planning to do few weekends or short stays this season but unsure where to go. It needs to meet certain criteria:

1. Close transfer to airport
2. Good range of all abilities for both boarders and skiers
3. Plenty to do off the slopes. (taking my 3yr old son)
4. Most importantly ££££££££.

Any ideas ?

Cheers

Flaine is a good option as it ticks most of your boxes. Only thing is it's not mega cheap, probably because it is the closest place to Geneva airport. Worth a look though.

We are starting a new short break operation in Les Coches next season where you can arrive any day and stay 3, 6 or 9 days - from £99 for three days, catered. We are in the process of having a new website launched which should be live this week with full details, but if you'd like to have a quick look on the old site try http://www.mountainsunltd.com/guests/shortbreaks.htm or you can drop me a message or email.

FlexibleBreaks out in Montgenevre - transfer / catered chalet / quiet trails / nice people. They'll be at the Metro Show or check their site. Bev's nice- might even do you a deal or two.

Fly to Geneva, you can be in a number of resorts within a couple of hours of landing, Morzine and Chamonix spring to mind. Oopalley do rooms on a per night basis in Morzine and La Vagabonde is a really cool hostel type place in Chamonix.
