  It's good for kids with several activities such as climbing wall, ice skating, sledging and snow fun. It can be useful if you want to learn the basics before going on a ski holiday. But if you are a skier or snowboarder with reasonable level it's very disappointing. The snow is very bad, they groom it a couple of times a day but there's just enough snow to cover the slope about two inches deep. It means that, on a busy day, half an hour later the snow is wiped from the busiest parts of the slope. We then start to see the concrete, and it becomes very dangerous. On top of that, some members of staff are rude, rental board bindings are loose, and the rope "lift" is the worst I've seen.

  I'm not really a fan. It's far too busy with learners all over the place. There have been occasions when I've come round the top corner and had to slam on my brakes to avoid knocking over a line of skiing kids on a lesson. It's nerve-wrecking enough without constantly having to watch ever other person. They need to separate the lessons. The escalators take a long time to get you to the top - it's 3 minutes up and about 2 minutes back down. It gets very repetitive and if you're stood behind a skiier you have to keep moving back as they have no grip so slide backwards. The price is crazy expensive too. Equipment is good and the staff are friendly. I dislike going there though but it's the closest we have to the real thing. It's a catch 22.
