Club field vibes without the nutcracker rope tows. Very family friendly and a great place to stay on the mountain. Lovely native beech forest on the way up too.

The aprés ski was incredible and i really enjoyed each run as they were just on that cusp of difficult but doable. Accommodation was great and staff everywhere (in Accommodation and at the slopes) were always so friendly and ready to help where necessary.
