Anyone looking for a great chalet...look no more! Jay & Laura have a beautiful place to stay and are the best hosts you can get! You also get great food, comfortable beds and a great little old town close by. The chalet has 5 bedrooms and can sleep up to 14 people. There were 14 in our group and we all managed to watch movies together in the large lounge. Laura also makes fantastic cakes everyday which are not to be missed!

The skiing was great value for money and the price of a beer on the mountain was only £2, so much cheaper than the overpriced Alps. There are plenty of runs for beginners and intermediates but only a couple of black runs. Jay showed us some great off piste areas though and there's always the park if you fancy doing some tricks.

I'd definitely recommend Bansko and Chalet Jora for a great snow holiday.
