  |  | Flaine - horrible, horrible architecture, but a very safe, car free resort, LOADS for the munchkins to do and good, safe clear runs back into the bowl of the resort. Lots and lots of good teaching for them within sight of where you're staying - plus plenty of fast runs on the stadium slope and some nice challenging blacks further up.
You can see Mont Blanc from the top station, there's a couple of other villages (Les Carroz and Samoens) to ski over to, and the snow's reliable 'cos it's quite high.
If you're looking for party central, this ain't it - there are only about three bars and one nightclub in the entire place. But hey, if you've brought your kids, you're not looking for pub crawls, right?
Flaine - highly recommended.
H.
