If you’re looking for a European ski break without the big price tag, or the long transfers of the Alps, Landal Winterberg is one of the best family-friendly spots for winter holidays in Germany. The resort is situated right on the Winterberg ski slopes, with easy access to chairlifts and gentle pistes, and the smaller Winterberg slopes are perfect for children. The holiday park format means you get spacious apartments, an indoor pool, play areas and lovely snowy walking routes. Nearby, the kids can enjoy activities like tobogganing and snow-tubing, and there’s even bobsleighing available if you fancy something a bit different! The nearest airports are Dortmund, Cologne or Frankfurt (they have fabulous Christmas markets!), or cross to France via ferry or Le Shuttle – it’s a 6 hour drive from Calais.
