New year, 1 week from 27th dec in France, apt or chalet.

stink — GMT

Hi, we are hoping to spend new year in France for 1 week from 27th dec, maybe flexible, 4 adults and 5 children, open to any area as long as it has stuff for the kids, will consider a chalet (catered if can afford) or a couple of apartments. Cheers guys.

If your pocket is deep enough you can't go wrong with esprit chalets when it comes to the kids. not cheap though! From my limited knowledge I can tell you that tignes val claret is good for apartments as is les arcs (we got a fantastic deal last new year). Skiworld have lots of chalets and chalet hotels in tignes le lac. alpe d'huez would be good if the kids are going to learn (be careful of location though). I haven't been there yet but val thorens would be good that time of year because of it's altitude (as would tignes). there seems to be quite a few apartments there but, from what I can see, the chalets all look to be in the same area which, although close to the village, are up a steep slope so not great with the kids in tow. Good luck :D

Hi, I have an apartment- see www.ownersdirect.co.uk/france/fr1457.htm which will house half of your party. I have a colleague who has an apartment in the block next to mine who can house the other half.

Hi Paul Was just looking at your chalet as a few of us are looking at going in april 09. It says it sleeps 4/6. Where do the two extras sleep outside of the beds??? chris

Hi Chris, 2 more can sleep on the sofa bed in the living room. We're off to the apartment in August and plan to buy another sofa bed, for the main bedroom, to give more flexibility-people could sleep there instead if they prefer.

Hi, Indeed it is, right on the edge with Villards-no.25 on this interactive map- www.lesarcs.com/Interactive-map-Arc-1800 The apartment is pretty much as per other apartments in the resort if you know the place, except that it has in addittion a (very low roof) loft room with 2 single beds. Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions at all.

know it well, we were in le thuria. I've added you to my favourites and will hopefully visit one day. thanks Caron

Caron, No worries-as you can see you'll be above the lifts so will have an easier time getting on and off the slopes! You walk/ ski a very short way downhill to the gondola and you ski back through trees to opposite our apartment block's front door. Paul

Having just recently done my first catered chalet holiday, I would beg to differ.

Average price for self catered apartment in Val d'Isere mid Jan (assuming full occupancy): £360 Average price for fully catered chalet same area same time: £460 Prices taken from Inghams brochure for reference. Thats £100 more for all your breakfasts, dinners, and evening drinks, with the benefit of someone doing your cooking for you. Thats what I meant about begging to differ. If that helps......

Sorry, i thought you were trying to be funny, so was that £100 difference per chalet or per person or per group?
