28th October 2012 – first snow has arrived!

The first real snow of the winter fell last night, down to 800m  – well below the level of the resort.  In the village we had about 10 cm.  Lots more high up on the slopes.  Whilst the snow in the town will not last, high up the snow will make a good base for the winter.

We have 2 suites currently available for Xmas week for those wanting to grab the first week of what is clearly going to be a great season.
