Take The Family To St. Gervais This Easter.

Acorn Family Holidays have cut prices on Easter holiday trips to St Gervais in France by £20 per person. Holidays departing April 3 are now £819 per person; departures April 11 are now £799 per person.

The prices are for all-inclusive holidays which mean that you have purchased return executive coach travel with pick-up points across England; six nights' half-board at the Hotel Deux Gares; a six-day ski pass; six days' ski or snowboard equipment hire; two hours of ski lessons per day; the services of an Acorn Representative in resort; fully comprehensive travel insurance; and access to a 24-hour telephone helpline. You can opt to make your own travel arrangements and enjoy the same holiday but without the coach travel included for £100 less.

An old spa town, dating back to Roman times, St Gervais les Bains has been busy with tourists since 1806. It is without doubt one of the most fashionable ski resorts in the French Alps and is situated near spectacular Mont Blanc.

The resort is linked to Saint Nicolas and Megève and together they make the largest inter-connected ski area (300 kilometres of piste) within the greater Mont Blanc pass area. There is a popular terrain park on Mount Joux directly above Saint-Gervais.
