    Ski Time is famous amongst our family and friends - it is a truly wonderful experience, the hospitality is warm, professional and incredibly good value. The food is excellent, the ambience amazing - just like the Swiss chalet ski lodges we enjoyed...

    This is the second time I have stayed at Ski Time. This time in the lodge. Great staff. So close to town - easy stroll to a number of other places to eat out - you don't have too - Ski time has great food. Nice healthy breakfast to start the day.
