Winter ski holiday with caravan

E

empee

Has anyone any experience of this? Are there caravan sites in France on the lower slopes that stay open through the ski season?

The wifes' face when I raised the possibility effectively ended any further discussion but the price of ski accommodation in school half term makes the caravan option at least worth a look!
 
Have a look at www.lesarcs.com and bourgsaintmaurice.com and a caravan site nearby www.leversoyen.com which may be of help. Bit of a long hike for a half term though.
 
Thanks for that Mike - it looks like people actually do go to ski resorts with their caravans then!

Not too far for Feb half term - we usually take an extra week to make it a fortnight as the kids are still in primary school.

Has anyone actually done it? Would appreciate any comments on using site facilities / deep snow / awnings / heating and preventing freeze ups etc. Our own experience of the alps in winter so far is that the weather is usually fairly benign at that time of year (Feb) - lots of sun during the day, occasional heavy snow and infrequent strong winds.

Haven't actually decided we'll do this yet - but need to do my research before putting the option to a sceptical wife! (but I think the kids would go for it!)
