Lovely people, first time going skiing as family (DH, DS 7yo and me). We want to go in February half term. DH and me already had a skiing holiday pre child (both begginers status). I took my son to local ski dome and he got the hang of it and enjoyed it. So, medium budget, not keen in France... And in our holidays we tend to book everything ourselves and in general we do not like "package" hols (for summer), but in this ocacion I appreciate it may be better?
I want my son to be happy and be able to ski and play with other children his same age (english / spanish speaking better), so hotel with indoor play area / indoor pool would be ideal.
We would like ski lessons for the 3 of us, also I would love to try country skiing so would need lessons for that.
I also would like to be in a nice town where ideally there would be restaurants, cafes, etc.
Andorra in general seems the cheaper option - but has aybody been with family and is it nice?
Norway seems lovely - but will february be bitterly cold? And there will be english speaking children?
Austria / Italy?
Recommedations please, thanks!!!
