When you book a holiday with Snowcoach it's never just about the skiing or snowboarding (although that's always a plus!). It's about the connections you make and the friends you keep. From our dinner party atmosphere every evening to the social skiing that we run 5 days a week, there is always someone on hand to chat to.

We first started operating ski holidays in 1978 and still have clients coming back to travel with us year after year. What they love most about the offering from Snowcoach is the sense of community.

Families are also welcomed warmly to the Hotel L'Aigle with a Kids Club and early children suppers offering up child friendly dishes. After a fun day up on the slopes, you can all retire for a good nights sleep in one of our spacious family rooms. Cots and highchairs are available free of charge.

We'd love the opportunity to quote for your next ski holiday - we think you'd be amazed at how competitive we are, especially for groups and solo skiers.

We look forward to hearing from you soon! Call us on 01727 866177 or visit us at www.snowcoach.co.uk

Don't you know how good the snow is? Let us show you...

Our favourite local photographer Nigel Chapman is out at Valmeinier 1800 at the minute and captured this image (see above) for us yesterday.

The sun is shining, the slopes are empty and the snow is fantastic. What are you waiting for?

29/02/2024

We have been having such a wonderful time this season, with clients reporting super holidays, that we couldn't believe it when we realised, in four weeks, it'll all be over.

I'm sure we don't need to tell you that the snow is in a great condition, and as the days get longer, you can enjoy more time doing what you love most, skiing (or boarding of course)!

What do you love most about holidaying with Snowcoach??

The snow is still in great condition with more on the way, the sun is shining and there are blue skies overhead. Due to its high position, the resort of Valmeinier 1800, is a safe bet for a snow sure holiday and with 160km of skiable piste, you'll love exploring the area.

It really is a super time to squeeze in a getaway to the Alps. If you haven't managed a ski trip, or are thinking about your second (or third) we are on hand to help!

There are also a couple of rooms left for both half-term weeks, so if you are quick, there might still be time to snap one up.
