Now’s the time to grab a half-term bargain in Italy, bask in a Tyrolean sauna cabin or sample late-season luxury at an idyllic Norwegian resort.
There’s a discounted deal in the stunning Monterosa ski region in Italy – and it’s a real steal if you have children on a half-term break.
For a boutique ski area with 28 miles of groomed, mixed-difficulty pistes, this area packs a huge culinary punch with family-run, on-mountain restaurants full of Italian charm.
A real must is a trip to Punta Helbronner at 11,360ft on the revolving Skyway cable car – views of the sublime Mont Blanc are so close it feels as if you can touch the hallowed, snowy peak.
Seven nights’ half-board departing February 19 at the three-star Hotel del Viale costs £778pp based on two sharing. This includes flights, transfers and a £25pp discount (igluski.com).

Owner Peter Unterlechner describes his award-winning, eco-friendly hotel as ‘the perfect winter retreat in which to slow down’. The Kellerjoch resort chairlift is only three minutes away and guests can ski back to the hotel.
