Nearly fully booked for 2009 / 2010!

We’ve only a couple of weeks left so if you’re interested, get in touch quick.

I’m going out there in a couple of weeks to do some mid-November glacier boarding, so I’ll report back on conditions when I’m home. Getting very excited about the new season!

Review of La Ferme du Val Claret

Impartial and comprehensive review of La Ferme du Val Claret by someone who stayed there here

Couple of provisos;

  1. This is a review of a 3 bed apartment, ours is only a 2 bed, so not quite so spacious and only has 2 bathrooms rather than the 3 mentioned in the review. 
  2. As we own our apartment, we have a parking space in the underground car park which we don’t charge additionally for, so you can knock the £100 off the cost he mentioned. 
  3. Our apartment is at ground-floor level, so no issues with lifts etc. 

Lots of good photos on the review though… note to self, take more photos on next visit.

Let it snow, let it snow….

Having popped out for a cheeky week (well, 3 days) of glacier boarding a couple of weeks ago, I was astonished to see that even in early november, there was snow right down into the resort. We had fresh powder for all 3 days, and pretty much the whole mountain to ourselves. 

Suffice to say the powder was deep enough for me to lose my mobile phone (once again, happens ever year so it’s good to get it out of the way nice and early!). 

So all in all, looks like a promising start to the season in terms of snow cover, and aparently there’s a huge dump of snow forecast in the next day or two… bring it on!
