Bonjour! 

I'm just so excited this week about our French ski trip. A big thank you to Sue at Travel Counsellors who has been marvellous at finding us a fabulous chalet (with a hot tub!) and great package. If you're going away I'd highly recommend Sue. The Guardian voted Travel Counsellors Best Travel Agent 2007 and I agree with them.

Sunday Brunch Club Ski Holiday 2008
1-8 March, Les Gets

Hit the slopes and the hot tub!
Have a seriously good time...
We have a fabulous ski trip organised in France, with a great chalet (and hot tub!) in a highly rated ski resort. Don't miss our first ski trip away which is guaranteed to be great fun. The trip is suitable for beginners as well as experienced skiiers.  Our chalet is in its own grounds and has a large hot tub (have I mentioned that?!) with built in lighting and sound system for a more luxurious feel. The fireside lounge is perfect for relating ski antics by the log fire before soothing those aching muscles in the hot tub with chilled glass of wine.  I'm equally as excited about the hot tub as the skiing!

We have very limited availability, if you want to go call or email today.
Included in the price: flights, transfers, accommodation, breakfast, afternoon tea, 4 course dinner with wine and coffee. It costs £674.00 with a flight supplement £65.00 making a total cost of £739.00. If you'd love to go but money's too tight to mention this month, remember you can also pay in instalments. Call on 07881 900 251 for details.
