The end of the ski season is nigh – which is good news for families in need of some last-minute fun on the piste. Prices are falling as fast as the snow. It's looking particularly good at the luxury end of the market, with companies such as Ski Famille (0845 6443764; www.skifamille.co.uk) cutting prices to less than £500 per adult per week and £345 for children at selected properties, including its newly acquired chalet, Le Chardon in Les Gets. With half-board accommodation, a playroom, outdoor hot tub and five days' in-chalet childcare included, it's perfect for your little darlings once they tire of schussing their way through mogul fields.
