About our Shhh don’t tell anybody Collection

 

We have travelled far and wide and explored a multitude of hidden resorts and hotels and believe we have found some real treasures. From these we have carefully selected what we consider to be the best and added them to our portfolio.  Many of these are not well-known to the British market.

 

Each destination has been chosen specifically for having that little ‘something extra’.

Possibly it is your first time on skis and do not want to be overwhelmed by some of the larger resorts, or the price tag that it comes with.  Alternatively, you may prefer one of the smaller, more traditional, resorts which still offers great skiing, but without the crowds. Or maybe you just want to get away from it all to enjoy a relaxing break where you can combine skiing and pampering in one of our carefully chosen Spa hotels.

 

And, not to forget our skiing foodies, we have sourced a selection of hotels offering outstanding award-winning cuisine coupled with remarkable service … but do remember ‘Shhh’ don’t tell anybody.

‘Tis the season to think of winter, snow, skiing, Christmas, food and wine!

With winter descending upon us and the temperature dropping, here at Ski Bespoke we are all ready for the start of the ski season with some resorts opening this weekend (some have even been open since the end of the November as the snow has been so good!)

It will not be long until you are on those slopes enjoying the fabulous conditions and if you haven’t already booked for ski holiday here are our top picks for this winter.

Our top picks for 17/18

Fiss, Austria – Perfect for a short break or longer, great skiing which is suitable for all skiers and super hotels with amazing food and spas.

Val Thorens, France – Part the largest linked ski area in the world! You have access to Saint Martin du Belleville, Meribel and Courchevel. Superb for all levels and abilities and budgets.

The CHEDI, Andermatt – The WOW factor and a real ski treat. The hotel is now ski in – ski out and its fabulous Japanese restaurant has been awarded its first Michelin star. The ski area is now linked to make skiing easier.  *Also this winter the Swiss Franc is very good so it is the perfect time to enjoy a Swiss ski trip.

The Festive Season

Now with the countdown to the Festive Season and things starting to get busy with parties, gifts, menu decisions and many, many more things that seem to need to be done this time of year, we have decided to lend a helping hand by introducing you some fabulous products that will make any foodie happy.

While on a ski holiday you can sample some of the best food and drink that country/area can offer and here in the UK we also have some real treasures. These companies like ourselves started small with a Niche product and we thought it would be fitting to share them with you.

Here are our top picks for this Festive Season

The Secret Smoke House – Offering fabulous smoked salmon and trout. Perfect for a romantic Christmas breakfast in bed or the starter to you Christmas dinner.

Tunworth Cheese – This incredible Artisan Camembert is a real delight and in the words of Raymond Blanc ‘The best Camembert in the world!’ and he should know. This is the perfect choice for any cheese board.

Wiston Estate – Super sparkling wines produced in the heart of the South Downs. They offer a great variety of choice, they are the perfect way to start the Festive season or see in the New Year.
