Hear what our guests have to say about their experience at The Snow Centre.
We loved it. Best way to keep oneself warmed up to skiing if not on mountains. Staff is helpful and encouraging. Would have taken a membership if it was not far from us.
We booked a beginners group ski lesson for 4 people and we had such a good time. Our ski instructor was Stuart T and from start to finish he was super helpful and encouraging. We would 100% recommend learning with him and are looking forward to going back again so that we can progress further.
“We came as a school party today and had an absolutely brilliant time! All the instructors were fab, so encouraging and friendly with the children and the whole day was super well organised. A special thanks to Tom, Lily, Matt, Rachel Toby, Sam.”
“The venue is amazing and there's just no replacement for real snow. I hadn't managed to get on the slopes for a few years and coming back was just as fun as the first time. Caroline is a great teacher and could spot what you were doing wrong from a mile away and give you practical ways to fix it. After a short while I was feeling fully confident on the board.”

To get the most out of your skiing time, you will need to wrap up appropriately. It's essential that you wear warm, waterproof clothing, including a jacket, trousers, warm socks, and a helmet. Your helmet, boots, ski, and snowboard equipment are all included in the price of a lift pass or lesson, or you can bring your own if you have them! Gloves are compulsory for all snow activities.
You can hire waterproof trousers and jackets from us if you need to, whilst gloves and warm socks can be purchased if you don’t have your own. Check out our guide on what to wear for indoor skiing to learn more.
Your first ski lesson will be all about getting to grips with the equipment and learning the basics on beginner-friendly terrain. The beginner stages include how to wear skis, move and walk on them, turn and stop. Check out our blog to learn more about how many ski lessons a beginner needs.
Your first snowboard lesson is pretty similar, focused on understanding the equipment, how to stand, balance, and move on the board. Ski or snowboard, you will be under the guidance of a qualified and experienced instructor who will make sure you love it as much as they do.
