Children (6 and 8) had first ever ski lesson with Ian last week. They were really nervous to begin with and didn't even want to go in but Ian was brilliant and gave them so much confidence. I've rarely seen them grin so much. They are desperate to go again. He balanced their knowledge and progression with fun, games and interest. Couldn't ask for more. OK - it's not a sparkling slope but we had a great time. Everyone was really friendly and helpful. There were some fabulous skiers on the slope at the time from of a ski team which inspired my two no end. We'll definitely go back. They'll still teach when it's raining so it's all about the kit.

Great bike bark with well maintained trails, despite the awful weather for the previous 3 or so weeks which closed other bike parks. Really helpful and friendly driver on the brilliantly efficient uplift. We had a great day. Highly recommended.
