Matt, I'll will definitely be up for some of that, I'm teaching mrs peterfile to snowboard before heading away later in the year and she doesn't have any of her own kit yet 🙂

Bargain!

EDIT: if we booked two people, would we get a room of our own? I might bring my tent otherwise 😉

Jings! That's crazy cheap, £54 full board for 2 nights including ski hire. Is it a charity?

Yes, yes it is, and we would like to fill some weekends.

It *is* an outdoor centre, so think bunk beds, big dining room etc. BUT it has swimming pool and climbing wall as well. 8)

Take a bike, if there is not enough snow....

Will we have to join in a rousing chorus of 'How Great Thou Art' on Sunday morning? 🙂

Much cheapness and looks loverly, I must say.

Looks good.

What is the Christian Adventure Bit about? are we obliged to pray?

How do you get to slopes?
How much lift passes?

What is the Christian Adventure Bit about? are we obliged to pray?

We are a Christian organisation - all the employees are Christians, but I would not let that put you off. We are tame, house trained and not inclined to bible-bash. The need to pray depends on your ability and that black run you have been eyeing up... :mrgreen:

How do you get to slopes?

One of our 8 or 9 minibuses from centre to slopes, usually a decision by the CI on the day of Cairngorm or Lecht (midway between both, usually on weather and runs open). You could of course take your own car as well.
How much lift passes?

IIRC, about £20 a day.
