i went to Cervinia a couple of years ago, was lucky with snow as we got loads of it! Would recommend it for beginners/intermediates nice resort. Not too full on etc
You can also cross over into Zermat!
It depends a bit on if you a skier or boarder!

off to Park city in 3 weeks with 17 mates! git some!!

ooh I was in Cervinia a couple of years ago. Excellent snow and hotel, and as you day Italy is a bit beginners/intermediates......However go across to Zermatt, and you can ski there, and the black runs ARE black runs!!

Rattler, stay in Cervinia , and with the full pass go on to Zermatt everyday!

Incidentally, see that Rossi is being sued due to a skiing incident!!

Davos. I think you'd fly to Geneva. Good ski area for 3/4 days. Independent hotels will give big discounts when booked at short notice. Be prepared to haggle. It's where the Swiss go for late season skiing and it's well organised, as you'd expect for Switzerland.

Or you could book them into the snowdome at Milton Keynes

For Davos , come into Zurich ... Geneva would make it a 5 hrs transfer!

Switzerland is fine ... but food and drink are expensive. And other than some isolated resorts (Zermatt, Wengen, Verbier) they don't really do apres ski ...

That's why I go th Chanomix next saturday .... and it's gonna snow all next week. And it's snow here at the moment ...

For a quick Geneva transfer also look at Morzine / Avouriaz

I'm gonna book directly with a hotel, arrange flights seperately and ski hire and passes can be sorted once there.

There mighyt be a £100 discount with Thompson, but they'll still be making plenty dosh on the deal - cut out the middleman I say.

Lordy Lordy
