Fifth star awarded to the Hotel Fermes de Marie, Megeve

Hotel les Fermes de Marie, Megeve

For many years the Hotel Mont d’Arbois has remained the only five star hotel in this acclaimed resort. The new grading of the Hotel les Fermes de Marie, which has recently gone from being a four star to a five star property, should serve to promote this first-rate resort’s reputation yet higher!

The Hotel les Fermes de Marie is ideally situated not far from the beautiful town square where the main lift departs from. None the less, its location provides all the tranquillity of a secluded hide-away. Ideal for children to make snowmen away from any traffic or skiing!

Should you want to set off from another of the resort’s many lift stations, the hotel’s courtesy driving service will happily do so. Equally, you can be dropped off and picked up by the hotel’s luxury vehicle if you would like to dine out at one of the chic establishments to be found in the centre of the village in the evening. You may not want to venture out, however, with so much to seduce you into staying in!

To check availability for a ski holiday at the Fermes de Marie, please call the Oxford Ski Company on +44 (0) 1865 398133 or make an enquiry at this link.

An exquisite visit to Crans-Montana

Hotel le Crans, Crans-Montana

Nothing gets you in the mood for Christmas more than an early season ski trip so having spent a couple of days in various ski resorts, the Oxford Ski Company is feeling particular festive. Good early snowfall, empty ski slopes, no lift queues and beautiful blue skis also helped encourage yule-tide good humour.

We only had a couple of days to slip away before the seasonal deluge of phone calls arrives so there was no better place to head to than Crans-Montana with its short transfer distance from Geneva and well linked ski area.

One particular highlight of many was enjoying the beautiful panoramic view from the Hotel le Crans outdoor pool at night.
