Thanks for all the advice about good places to drive to in Italy for Feb half term.

Ideally we'd wanted ski-in, ski-out, but a very good value, spacious chalet is available in La Salle

It would save us about £1,000 on the overall holiday, so quite attractive - as is not shoe-horning our warring teenage girls into an Alpine resort shoebox.

The owner reckons it's about 25 mins from La Thuile, 15 from Courmayeur.

Would anyone have any advice? Would this really be the case at Feb half term? (It's half term in Italy too), and we're finding lots of places already booked up.

Also, would parking be ok when we arrive at the resorts? Parking cost isn't too much of an issue, availability and hassle factor is.

I know that there is lots or parking in La Thuille and also Courmayuer (but not for the main cablecar but at the Dolonne or Val Veny Lifts)
