Well, we've had our last guests, and cannot believe where time has gone.

Thankyou to Philip, Derek and boys, Phil,Karen and boys and Sharon, Andrew, Cal and Em who made our last week a fab one.

We skied all over and although temperatures are warm managed to find some good snow by following the sun round and having late lunches.

Philip and Derek did a bit of house hounting whilst they were here, please don't buy guys as our takings will be seriously hit if you don't come every season, only joking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Andrew was on his 4th trip this season, he's nearly part of the chalet now.

All the kids got on great and Anneha loved skiing with you all.

Here a couple of pics of the guests.

 

We watched a bit of the flying K in Arc 2000. The racers are timed over a kilometre by straight lining a run on the front face in 2000. Its amazing and the record stands at about 267 kilometres per hour. We took this picture to show how the racers look(like something off another planet)

I know everyone has been saying have you still got snow, but this was taken only 2 weeks ago, need I say any more!!!!

Jonny skied off the glacier at the back of the Grand Motte in Tignes the other day. He found great spring snow, although it was a 2hr walk out of the bottom. He is looking forward to doing some touring in the next few weeks.

I met up with some friends in Tignes this week, hi to Geoff and Lorraine and thanks again for lunch. Also it was great to ski with Johnny Bramwell again and his group so thanks Johnny for that.

I had to add this pic of my friends 2 boys, what a handsome pair you are Archie and Harvey!!!

Just like to wish Callum a Happy Birthday for Monday.

The chalet has been cleaned down and we are having a lttle break before heading back to UK on 8th may for a few days.

We are taking summer bookings in the chalet (self catering) but could cook a little if needs be. Please get in touch if anyone fancies a summer break, the whole chalet for as little as £400 for the week.

Also we are now taking bookings for next season,prices will be kept the same as this season for any early bookings. Please try and book early this year as we had to turn people away due to been full, which we do not like doing at all.

Anyway thanks again to everyone who joined us this year and thanks for making it another successful and enjoyable winter. Merci Beaucoup!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jonny, Kumari, Anneha and Fi xx

We have had the Weetmans here along with the Simpkins and true to form Joanne got good weather as always.

The Simpkins skied in Ste Foy most of the week as they had ski school, the Weetman boys took a private ESF instructor and came on in leaps and bounds. Everyone left with sun tans as you can see by the photos.

We skied over to La Plagne one day and headed up to the glacier. Snow was good and up until Thursday of this week we have been skiing down Villaroger side and down loading on the first lift!!!

This photo was taken over in La Plagne showing great conditions!!!

 

It was National all in One day, so of course we all had to take part. It was in Ste Foy and all the locals made an effort. We all skied together and had some strange looks from everyone.Suprising that!!!!

 

We then had Vera and her group in. They skied all over, and loved it in Val D'Isere. One of the party Ina was not skiing so she visited the Spa and did lots of shopping.

Many thanks to Gav, sarah and Becky who returned again for the third time this season.

Anyway will write again soon with an update of our last week.

Byeeeeeeeeeee

During the last few days we have had more snow , which has really livened things up. We are still able to ski down to Villaroger, but just download on the bottom chairlift , which is no problem.We have superb conditions in les Arcs at the moment , and actually found empty pistes this week despite it being Easter holidays.

Thanks to The Howdens, Schofields and Paul and Bhu who came 2 weeks ago. We had a great time with you all and your little girls are so cute.

Here is a picture of our girls with jasmine and Harriet.

We skied in Ste Foy a little that week and once again there was nobody around, it was perfect. We took this pic there

 

Harry, Gary and Andrew, came last week for a long weekend. We had great weather, blue skies and sun and made sure they skied hard whilst they were here.


We went for a mongolian meal at East in Arc 1950 one evening. We skied all day, then met some friends at Luigis for drinks at 5pm. Then we had a meal at East at 6.30pm, and finally left there at 9pm. We then skied back in the dark via the Rhonaz Track through the forest at the bottom of 1950. We all had our head torches on, or most of us did Les!!!!!
It was a great laugh and we will definitely be doing it again sometime. Heres a couple of photos from the evening

 

Anneha has done her first slalom race , followed by another this last weekend. The first was the Grand Prix in Villaroger and the course was down the red at the top of the 2nd lift. She was a bit nervous but she did so well , never missing a gate.

The second race was in Ste Foy and once again she did us proud and finished the course without a mistake. It was sheet ice as well and lots of the kids fell or missed gates.

This is a photo of Anneha from the Grand Prix at Villaroger.

Well weve got another 2 weeks to go and cannot believe how fast the season has gone.

We are now thinking of our Summer and anyone wanting to book the chalet on a self catering basis is more than welcome. Please get in touch to discuss a price if anyone is intersested. Don't forget there is summer skiing on the glacier at Tignes during July and August and plenty of activities nearby to keep you busy. (See our summer page on website.)

Will write again soon...Bye..................
