Much depends on what you are after. Andorra has traditionally been viewed as cheap ski resort, so if you want to check out other cheap resorts then take a look at this article for some ideas

Are the resorts in Scotland worth bothering with? What sort of snow cover do they get? I could imagine the coverage has probably got less and less each year, with the possible exception of this year.

I can't imagine skiing in Scotland - any buzzers done it?

There was a ski centre in Aviemore forced to close this year because of too much snow. Doesn't fill you with much confidence really does it?

Best place to ski in Europe has to be the Three Vallees in France and the best place to stay is Chalet Chardon Bleu near St Martin de Belleville which is perfectly placed for the three valleys but still gives you a taste of rustic france as opposed to all the other purpose built modern resorts. Check out http://www.peak-pursuits.com guests come back year on year and styay there Spring and Summer holidays, you'll be pleasantly surprised to find the most stunning walks and run routes, thouroughly recommend walking up to Lac du Lou, the hosts drop you off with a pic-nic and bottle of wine and you can swim in the lake, happy days!!!
