The Snow Centre, Hemel Hempstead

Highly recommend! I had a 5 hour adult beginners ski day with Dean. Left the day having only fallen 4 times and at a level 3! Which is amazing. Dean was so helpful and enthusiastic. Gives feedback along the way and you are never stranded (especially when you fall!). It was a long day and I was so glad to get the boots off but I would highly recommend Dean and the adult ski day for anyone trying to learn.

Great for a refresher before a ski/board trip. The snow is good. However if you're learning then the learner slope is very small (is often sub divided into 4 bits so even smaller) so the focus is on always being able to stop immediately- not the same as you'd be taught in a resort or on a dry slope where space is your friend. So if you want to learn then suggest at snow centre prices then resort ski school or dry slope are great value. Hence 3 stars.
