Winter Ski Holidays

For us, winter is all about skiing — it’s where we focus our main family trips.

If you’re planning a ski holiday, this page covers our favourite resorts and how to get started.

Ski Resort Guides

RUKA, FINLAND

Close to Lapland, Ruka offers the full winter‑wonderland experience — reindeer rides, snowmobiling, meeting Santa — while being an excellent beginner‑friendly ski resort.

PASSO TONALE, ITALY

A compact, family‑friendly resort, set high in the mountains and known for its easy beginner slopes and convenient catered accommodation.

LA THUILE, ITALY

A fantastic choice for first‑time skiers looking for a quiet, practical resort right by the slopes — we’ve loved it so much we’ve been back multiple times.
