Spent Feb half term week there with wife, four kids (aged 6-12) and in-laws (brave, I know) and it is just the best combination of accommodation, location, fittings and price I have come across. We have done Youth Hostels, B&Bs, etc. but this place is the answer. I am loath to recommend it too much as it might mean it gets booked up and we can't go back! The privacy, equipment (top of the range fridge, oven, sound system, wifi, DVD players in all bedrooms, great drying facilities for ski kit etc.), setting and convenience add up to the perfect place to stay for winter, and is probably great in summer too. A few things - watch out for the wooden floors, they are a bit slippery in socks (the kids all fell over in their exuberance to explore the place), the pillows are a little hard and Tesco's don't know where it is so if you are ordering groceries to be delivered you have to talk them in - if you can get a phone signal!
