I have been to Bulgaria and Austria skiing in the past and I took up snowboarding (and not great) after paying £2000 for a week. I had enough as its not my main holiday and I only used 15% of the mountain. I looked at cheaper options as I wanted to take the whole family of four to learn. After looking at Germany and Scotland, my father said "what about Cyprus?" We have a family home in Limassol, it's one road to the top of Mt Olympus. I went with him first time and hired a snowboard. I now have been three years running and in 6 weeks booked to take the wife and children with our equipment. For those on a budget take a seat now!.
Return flight for family four 1 x week in end of February including ski equipment luggage fee (half term) including a weeks parking at the airport £170 .
Car pick up from airport and drop £94
ebay rummaging for three sets of skis and poles with boots/(to take and leave in the house) plus helmets from decathlon £210
Family of four in half term to ski for 7 days total £474.
