Follow on Google News | Save 30% plus free ski lessons this February!This February, L'Ancienne Poste, a luxury ski lodge in the French Pyrenees is offering week-long packages at a discount of 30%. What's more, James Dealtry, the English owner of the lodge, is offering guests free ski lessons each day of the holiday!
By: L'Ancienne Poste The lodge – an ex post office which has been lovingly restored and totally renovated, sparing no expense – is within a ten-minute drive of three ski resorts; Val Louron (which is perfect for beginners), St. Lary, and Peyragudes. It is also under 20 minutes from the resort of Piau-Engaly. The lessons will be taught by the English owner of the lodge, James Dealtry, who was the first-ever non-French national to be employed by the Ecole Ski Française (he instructed for 15 years in the Alpine resort of Val d’Isere before purchasing and renovating the Pyrenean lodge). Comments James, “The slopes of the Pyrenees are far quieter than those of the Alps, making them ideal for concentrating on technique – and the lift passes are much cheaper – and it removes the constant worry that beginners have of being knocked over by another out-of-control skier. “I find that my guests also enjoy discussing the day’s lessons and technique etc, over a drink and dinner in the evenings before heading back to the slopes the next day.” Between the three nearest ski areas there are 20 black runs, 52 red runs and 69 blue runs; ideal for intermediates and beginners but there is also plenty of off-piste skiing for the more experienced skier. A week’s stay during the first half of February now costs from just €599 pp (two sharing a room) – a saving of over 30% off the regular price. It includes seven nights’ B&B, canapés followed by a four course dinner with wine and or beer on six nights, and three hours of free tuition from James on six mornings of the holiday. Lift passes and flights not included but the area is well served by three main airports Pau, Lourdes-Tarbes and Toulouse, which can be accessed using low cost airlines such as Easyjet or Ryanair. Transfers are available on request at a supplement. For further information call 0033 (0) 6 09 49 73 80 (www.ancienneposteavajan.com). End
