Have yourself a very merry Twixmas
Make the most of your holiday time this year with a fantastic ski weekend, travelling by luxury coach to Europe’s finest Alpine resorts
Emotions will be running high after the family get-together on Christmas Day and there may be a tinge of excitement for the arrival of 2013 . . . but what to do for Twixmas, that lull period in the run-up to midnight on New Year’s Eve? Anyone for a weekend of Yuletide snowsports in the heart of the Alps? Thanks to SkiWeekends.com, you can now enjoy a direct-to-the-piste coach service that will whisk you off to Europe’s finest ski resorts for a Twixmas to remember.
Not only is it up to £200 cheaper to travel by luxury coach, you will also avoid those horrendously early airport check-in times, endless holiday queues at security and the perils of lost luggage by travelling safely in the knowledge your bags are stowed with you at all times. You can even put your own favourite skis or snowboard on the coach, too, for just £12 return, guaranteeing they’ll be with you when you arrive. And when you do arrive, forget all about lengthy transfers. SkiWeekends’ resort service is so finely tuned, the time between stepping off your coach and looking excitedly down your first ski run could be as little as 60 minutes – less than the average airport transfer time!
All this and you can travel conscience-free, happy and proud in the knowledge that coach travel is so much greener, producing just 10% of the carbon emissions associated with flying. If the super value and eco-friendly simplicity of travelling by coach isn’t enough, SkiWeekends coaches are also luxury on the move. The newest fleet of any operator to the Alps, every coach offers standard and club class seating, adjustable back rests, lap seat belts, individual reading lights and air conditioning, a hot and cold drinks facility, a washroom – as well as a colour TV and choice of DVD films en route. Surprisingly speedy and super-comfortable, the distance to the Alps is covered through the night to ensure you wake up to a beautiful panorama of snowcovered peaks . . . and, of course, get to maximise your ski time!
If there’s no skimping on the luxury of travel and accommodation, neither is there compromising on the quality of the snowsports. SkiWeekends.com offers breaks to some of the most popular ski areas in France, including Meribel – Three Valleys, Chamonix – Mont Blanc and Morzine. Its resorts are snow-sure and provide a great choice of runs, whether you’re a first-timer or an accomplished powder pro. Here are just two of the fantastic Twixmas breaks currently on offer from SkiWeekends.com.
Morzine, December 26-30 with 3 days skiing From £419: Morzine is a lively, year-round resort that offers an extensive choice of slopes. The main area is accessed by gondola to Le Pleney, a compact network of pistes suiting all abilities, with blue and red options from every lift. There are plenty of tree-lined runs, too, while snowboarders are well catered for due to the lack of both draglifts and flat sections in the area. The picturesque town centre offers plenty of apres-ski options with restaurants and bars lining the streets to the lifts of Le Pleney. There is an excellent multi-route bus service that links all parts of the town to the lifts as well as neighbouring Les Gets. Your centrally located accommodation at Club Chalet Hotel Gourmets – just a two-minute walk from the central square with its abundance of bars and restaurants – boasts a warm, relaxed atmosphere, offering superb value for money. You can choose from private or shared facilities, cosy chalet or spacious family rooms. Dining with views across the Valley, your holiday includes buffet breakfast, afternoon tea with homemade cake and wine with your evening meal. Afterwards relax in front of the open fire, play a game, watch TV, or simply unwind and relax, looking forward to your next day’s skiing. For more information visit www.skiweekends.com
. . . and you can be sure you’ll have a very merry Twixmas!
