A skiing holiday does not have to be expensive. Do your homework and create your own low cost package.
Accommodation, flights and transfers – all-in under £250 pp per week?
It’s possible with a systematic approach:
1. Timing – select a low-cost off-peak week. The first two weeks after New Year are a time when some of the best accommodation and flight bargains are to be had, for example. Be flexible – book a shorter break for 3-4 days and find a real bargain. Or you could travel mid-week when there are cheaper flights available: increasingly, chalets and apartments are allowing flexible stays.
2. Place – why do you need to be in a famous resort? Unless you are after serious après–ski action there are plenty of quieter Alpine villages which offer delightful skiing. Take at look at Samoens for example - a beautiful traditional village offering access to extensive skiing in The Grand Massif.
3. Accommodation – book direct with a chalet owner to find the best possible deal and pay in local currency (Euro). You can source them through local websites that offer links to accommodation providers such as www.samoenschalets.co.uk, or save time surfing the web for such gems with a quick skim through a direct booking portal such as www.internet-cottages.com.
4. Food – why not offer a free place on your trip to a non-skiing talented cook? Agree a budget and let them loose daily in the market while you enjoy the piste.
Here’s how little money you could spend:
Accommodation
Week: Sat 17 Jan 09: 7 nights
Place: LE CHALET FISCHER self-catering ski chalet to sleep 8 at Verchaix, near Samoens, 60km from Geneva.
Cost when booked via www.internet-cottages.com: Euro 1205 (approx £119 per person based on 8 people sharing).
Price includes:
A. electricity
B. hot water
C. heating
D. bed linen (beds are prepared prior to arrival of guests)
E. towels
F. toiletries (soaps, shower gels, shampoos)
G. end of stay cleaning
H. logs
I. local taxes
J. for guests with laptop computers, high speed WiFi internet access
K. items such as washing up liquid, washing up sponges, dishwasher tabs, coffee filters, kitchen towels
In with the price, the owner also offers assistance with pre-reservation of skis, boards, and boots in advance of the holiday.
Transport
Flight: Easyjet Flights £67 / person
Return airport transfers €46 / £36 per person
Daily transfer to slopes €30 / £24 per person (6 days)
Total per person (excluding ski pass, hire and food) £246.00
Alternatively you could hire 2 cars at £170 each car (£42.50 per person) from www.auto-europe.co.uk for a Citroen C4 which would bring down the cost to £228.50 per person (excluding fuel and insurances).
