We have just returned from our sixth visit to Nick and Caroline at La Ruche and everything about this family holiday is absolutely perfect for us. Les Carroz itself is a charming little village which feeds into a wide area of good skiing at the full range of levels. We love the fact that everything is so easy and convenient... More

We have stayed with Nick and Caroline at La Ruche the last two years. We quickly became firm believers in their philosophy and strong supporters too. Firstly, the setup is perfect for families. From the accommodation with separate rooms for the little ones to the dinners that are organized to give the kids time together with food they appreciate they... More

Just returned from another wonderful skiing holiday courtesy of Nick and Caroline. If you have kids and want a skiing holiday with great hosts, that is very child friendly (including on tap childcare), adult time thrown in and the best chalet food in Carroz then look no further than La Ruche. And you guessed it already booked for 2014. Thanks... More

This is our second time staying here in half term. A colleague told me about this chalet and we were on the waiting list for a good few years. Last year there was a slot available for us, we had such a great time we rebooked immediately. As all the other reviews have said, Nick and Caroline are perfect hosts... More

Our first ski holiday with the children was amazing. Caroline & Nick could not be more helpful, their hospitality was fantastic. Caroline manages to effortly organise you whilst Nick creates fantastic food in the kitchen. The chalet is great for children too, a real friendly atmosphere with a play room and toys to keep them happy. Highly recommended and looking... More

We have just returned Jan 2013 from a short break at La Ruche in Les Carroz. The owners of the chalet Nick and Caroline where first class hosts very helpful and fexible with our timings. They organised our transfers, lift passes (which where waiting for us when we arrived) and even helped us with our ski hire, nothing was too... More

Don't normally bother with this sort of thing but felt the need to pen a line or two about this place. If you have kids then take note. Just returned from a week's skiing and the place is truly exceptional. It's owned & run by a husband & wife English couple and their two teenage daughters. He is a fantastic... More

We have stayed with Nick and Caroline 7 times now and each time we have been made to feel completely at home. When we first went in the summer of 2004 we had a fantastic time with our then tiny children. We were extremely impressed with the extras that made it easy to travel with such young children, and we... More

We have had two skiing holidays with Nick and Caroline and they have both been wonderful. We have four children with an 8 year age range and they have all had a wonderful time. They have made friends instantly with the other children at the chalet and feel totally at home there. They love the food and Nick works wonders... More
