We offer FREE accommodation and meals for children aged between 2 and 11 years, when they share with their parents in selected Skiworld chalets which have extra beds and are taken as a whole chalet booking. Must be booked over the phone. Click the button below to find out more.
Our Ski All-In Deals offer maximum value for money with minimum hassle. You pay one amount for your entire ski holiday which includes lift passes, ski hire and ski carriage. As well as being easier, it’s cheaper than buying all the components separately, and you pay the same low £175pp holiday deposit for most properties, to secure everything up-front.
Self-drive ski holidays are perfect for families as you have the added flexibility of taking as much luggage with you as you can fit in your vehicle, you can stop for breaks, or even extend your trip and see more places along the way.
We offer loyalty discounts of £35pp, £50pp and £100pp if you've booked with us before and book with us again. Discount varies depending on when you book your next trip.
Offering great locations, a huge range of prices and sizes and with the flexibility to dine out, self-catered ski apartments can be a great option for families. We offer a Price Match Promise on all European and North American hotel and apartment holidays, so if you find the same package elsewhere for less, we promise to match or beat the price!
If you're looking for a chalet with space for a cot for your little skier or snowboarder, here is a list of all our chalet properties that fit the bill. You may need to request the cot when you make your holiday booking. For any cot-related questions please give our Specialists a call on 0330 102 8004.

Christmas 2022
A white Christmas is what every kid dreams of and we pull out the stops to make sure that the whole family has a magical time.

For more details of what's included see our Christmas Ski Deals via the main menu.
New Year 2022/23
Get away for New Year and spend some quality time with the family in a wintery alpine retreat. Like Christmas, there are loads of things going on in ski resorts to help make this ski holiday memorable. Find out more about New Year ski holidays and what is on offer on our New Year Ski Deals via the main menu.
February Half Term 2023
Easter 2023
Easter is a popular choice for family ski holidays with fantastic spring weather, longer days and excellent snowfall. Resorts often pull out the stops with Easter celebrations and egg hunts as well as end-of-season parties for everyone. If you're interested to know more about spring skiing, view our Easter Ski Deals via the main menu.
We look at the best ski resorts for your family ski holiday based on their ability. Whether you have family members who are just starting out, or maybe they're ready to take on new challenges on the slopes... or maybe they're already overtaking you! Whatever the scenario you want to make sure you choose the right resort for everyone so we've compiled our favourites based on our own personal memories and experiences.
Our top family ski resorts which are great if you have beginners within your family. We have specifically chosen resorts
ALPE D'HUEZ
An ideal ski resort for families with beginner skiers as Alpe d’Huez offers terrain for all abilities. There are two beginner areas, Rif Nel and Les Jeux, which are great places to get your first taste of skiing with a dozen or so green runs at hand.
LA PLAGNE
La Plagne is a great resort for a family ski holiday as much of the ski area is on a gentle plateau at the top of the resort which offers wide cruising runs, perfect for beginners to cut their teeth on. The resort is made up of 11 villages, although for beginners in the high villages of Belle Plagne and Plagne Centre it may be best to avoid the lower, more challenging runs.
LA ROSIERE
The nursery slopes in La Rosiere are just a short lift ride from the two main villages. It offers a pleasant alternative to a family ski holiday in the Alps as it is a smaller, quieter resort which can be a preferential option for beginners. It is also an attractive resort with a village charm with well thought of ski schools.
LES ARCS
A really solid choice for a family with beginner skiers, thanks to the four beginner zones (“ski tranquille”) across the resort as well as 10 free beginners lifts too. Les Arcs doesn’t use the green run classification, however many of their blues runs are gentle enough to be greens.
THE THREE VALLEYS
This is a massive area (encompassing Courchevel, Meribel and Val Thorens) and with over 600kms of piste, there really is something for the whole family thanks to the huge variety a skiing terrain on offer.
MERIBEL
Meribel always looks like a stereotypical alpine ski village; it is a resort which is inherently attractive. The resort has also made of point of being family-friendly and this is evident through the range of ski schools, childcare facilities and general entertainment for children, like specified sledging areas and kid ski areas with Inuit Villages and mini slalom courses.
VAL THORENS
Having only a slight bias towards intermediate skiers makes Val Thorens a great place for beginners to progress from the numerous nursery slopes and green runs. It is also the highest resort in the Three Valleys which promises great snow throughout the season. For the family, the longest toboggan run in France is a great option as is the incredible spectacle of the ski instructor’s torchlit descent.
We only work with the best in-resort ski schools and our Ski Specialists can advise and pre-book the relevant classes for you and your family.
You are never too young to enjoy a ski holiday! Many of our resorts have local crèche facilities and most have pre-ski school kindergartens (which usually require a vaccination certificate).
We are delighted to offer a private nanny service in partnership with T4 Nannies in Val d’Isère, Tignes, La Plagne, La Rosiere, Courchevel and Meribel.
Ski resorts are magical places for children and T4 nannies offer fun, flexible and top-notch childcare. Unlike other nanny services, they hand-pick their nannies and hire them for the full season, so they personally know and trust the people who will be looking after your children. All their nannies are CRB checked, first aid trained and come with glowing references.
