Ski Heaven!

arsenal 89 chelmsford
Review Submitted: November 24, 2008 Date of Stay: March 2008
Thouroughly enjoyed my week in Argentier. Blue skies and powder days dont come any better than that, and the apartment was very comfortable.
Was also impressed with the variety of resorts on my doorstep all within a free 10 minute bus ride with greatly varieing terrain for all different standards of skier. Managed also to do the vallee blanche off piste run which will be forevever in my memory as one of my all time great adventure ski days!
Also managed a day's skiing in Italy and switzerland! Plenty of restaurants and choice of bars on the doorstep with the town of chamonix being just down the road if we wanted a different night out- glitzy bars and too many restaurants for a month!
Only two drawbacks- found he local ESF ski school did not have enough english speakers for the kids so woul use one of the english schools next time AND one week was not enough!
