I went skiing 15 yrs ago, thought it was the best holiday of my life. Havent been able to afford it since. Went with H and DD, and friends. They were experienced and they organised and booked it all.

Fast forward to now. Divorced and DD1 is 18, DD2 is 11. Boyfriend of 5 yrs has offered to take us with his DSx2 skiing. (if my back and knees are up to it!)

I want to go to France, we went to Les Deux Alpes before. Basicly need girl space for me and DDs and boy space for DP and his DSs.

We'll need ski school for all. Feb half term.

Ideas and recommendations pleeease?

Ok, read a bit.... So if you dont mind a long transfer do you get better deals?
How much is the MN mark warner discount and how do i find it/ get it?

Do you want a hotel, apartment, catered chalet? A package holiday or do your own thing? My best ever deal was Bulgaria with a long transfer but then it wasn't half term. My boyfriend was poor and gave me a budget of £350 each for halfboard accommodation, lift passes, lessons, hire, flights, transfers etc.

Did find out that the Mark Warner discount is 7%. But as our 4DC are 11-18, we didnt really need that kinda whole family thingy. I think its under £1000 each. Which is where we were aiming. :-)
