Hi
We are considering buying a tiny apartment in the French Alps and I'm looking at the cost and pros/cons of travelling there by different methods, to make sure we can use it as much as possible.
Has anyone any experience of getting the train to the French Alps? I think you can go direct from St Pancras now (overnight), or change in Paris/Lille.
We live in Bristol, so would have to get to London first, but would save DH driving (we usually drive down to the Alps) and get us closer than the plane (we'd need to get to Moutiers by train) and then a taxi/shuttle to the resort.
We have 2 DC, one train mad, both pretty well travelled, so am not too worried about how they might find it. Just would be interested in any experiences, costs, downsides etc.
Thanks
