Pre-bookable Childcare Crèche Ski Kindergarten yes 6mths-6yrs 4-6yrs can provide a really special skiing experience whatever the conditions, whatever your ability, and whatever your ambitions. Neilson accommodation is based right in the heart of the resort in the village of Villeneuve, an area that benefits from a fantastic range of tree lined runs extending deep into the 250km ski area. Beyond this open bowls beckon for those who live for the back country; skiing and boarding in Serre Chevalier gives you a real sense of travel in your adventures on the slopes. A park for experts, long gentle runs that take you back home and a lower key après scene than some more famous French resorts. Activity off the slopes can range from gourmet delights in the old town to trying your hand at ice driving - mirroring the resorts skiing - there really is something for everyone. Free lift pass for 5yrs. Area lift pass covers Grand Serre Chevalier plus 1 day in either the Milky Way or Les Deux Alpes or Alpe d'Huez. Transport between these resorts is at an additional cost. Includes e3 hands free keycard supplement.
