Resort quality influences winter sports holidaymakers

Snow conditions and the quality of a resort are two of the most important factors for Britons looking to go on a skiing holiday, it has been suggested.

The Ski Club of Great Britain has stated that due to the needs for good snow conditions, winter sports tourists will tend to favour top resorts over the smaller destinations.

"Whether you are looking for larger resorts or a more traditional resort, snow conditions are key," the body's Carrie Hainge explained, noting that the former are "more popular".

Those who are considering investing in skiing resorts - such as the variety of locations on offer in France - may wish to heed Ms Hainge's comments and ensure they purchase property in an area where snow is likely to be of a consistently good quality.

The body recently noted that areas such as Meribel, Courchevel, Val d'Isere and Tignes are all popular French destinations, adding that Britons are more likely to opt for nearby resorts rather than those in the United States.
