Dolomites! Google maps showing Innsbruck- Brunico or Innsbruck- San Vigilo di Marebbe <1hr 30mins. Either would be a good base for Kronplatz/Plan de Corones. Alternatively, if you don't want to be bussed or drive to the pistes, Google maps shows Selva only another 10-15 minutes further.

In the past, I have driven to the Dolomites from Treviso (3 hours at a leisurely pace) because of the 'dirt cheap' flights to there from East Mids Airport. Note to self: must get busy finding cheap flights to Innsbruck :) .

Why go to Italy? Just east of Innsbruck is the Zillertal Valley, and the next exit east of that is the Ski Welt, Austria's biggest linked resorts, all primarily intermediate skiing. Just west of Innsbruck is Solden, St Anton, and Ischgl.
