A recent British survey regarding affordable ski holiday destinations featured chalets in Morzine among its top five most popular options. According to interviewed parties, the French resort perfectly combines reasonable prices and quality slopes, making it one of the best-balanced locations for holidays of this type.
In spite of their popularity and recognised affordability, however, chalets in Morzine are still beaten out in the survey — at least in terms of price — by a number of other European destinations. The ranks are led by as unlikely a place as Bulgaria, where slopes were deemed affordable and varied enough for a perfect family ski holiday. Bansko in particular was considered a bargain for British winter sport enthusiasts, as it offers accommodation, ski passes, training lessons, rental equipment and even meals at budget prices, at least by British standards. The fact that it has been granted the status of UNESCO World Heritage site only helps make it that much more attractive of a location for British skiers.
Following not far behind in terms of affordable slopes to visit for a British citizen were resorts in Slovenia, Italy and Austria, which ranked second, third and fourth respectively. Chalets in Morzine rounded out the top five, proving the continuing popularity of the French resort among United Kingdom snow sport practitioners. The top ten was completed with slopes from Andorra and Finland, with Italy and Austria making repeat appearances.
The same study also discovered that skiers in general can save considerable amounts of money by choosing lesser-known skiing destinations in the main winter holiday countries. Chalets in Morzine, for instance, represented a 15 percent saving in comparison to a stay in some of the neighbouring ski resorts, according to the survey’s findings.
The report in question was a joint publication by the British Post Office and a specialist agency of the sector and assessed a total of 30 resorts, 22 in Europe and 8 in North America. For comparative purposes, prices were set against the British pound, allowing for a better overview of costs for the survey’s intended readership.
