Hi just after advice really. I'm currently researching options for our first family ski holiday next year (dh and I have skied 3 x but dds 9&7 haven't). However almost every option seems to suggest putting kids in ski childcare/ski club all day which I don't want. To me that is not a family holiday.
I then looked at catered cabins (as we are one of 3 families) and read that kids can't eat with the adults? Is this usual? It just seems so un-family orientated! We want the kids to go to ski school for a morning or so with lunch and afternoon together but with all the research I'm wandering if we are going to find a ski holiday difficult to match our needs!
On summer holidays, we go all inclusive and spend whole days together etc and don't use childcare. With skiing, especially esprit, it all seams to be about getting the kids looked after whilst the adults ski which I dont want. I'd rather sacrifice skiing than put the kids in a school all day. What do others do to get the right balance? Anyone recommend any companies or resorts which might suit us.
Not trying to criticise others as all personal choice but I really would like for us to all ski but to still spend maximum time together.
Thanks!
