New for 2008:
We are pleased to announce that from the summer of 2008 we will have a new branch based in Tignes.
Tignes is part of the huge Espace Killy ski area, which links to Val D’Isere. With an altitude of between 1550m and 3450m, and the Grande Motte glacier, the resort has guaranteed snow and the season is long – from November to May. The glacier is also open in the summer and autumn.
As a whole, Tignes is made up of 5 separate villages – Les Brevières and Les Boisses are further down the mountain from the other 3, and tend to be a bit quieter. Val Claret, Lac and Lavachet are higher, more lively and within walking distance from each other. A free bus service runs between them 24 hours a day throughout the winter season.
Tignes has a great international community of seasonnaires, many of whom come back year after year, or forget to go home at all and end up staying. If you are interested in doing a season, or coming out to stay for a month or two, please let us know your requirements and we will try to find the most suitable accommodation for you.
