We were looking for a pretty ski village with lots of skiing options and hopefully quiet during the Feb half-term.

The village is stunning with lots of beautiful traditional Swiss chalets, it's small and has everything that you need for your stay.

When we were there there were loads of snow so snow chains were needed in the village.

The skiing has 3 resorts that are not joined up - Isenau is accessed via the bubble that runs from the village, it goes up through the village and chalets and takes you right to the top where you then have lots of runs to choose from, the views are amazing - this side is in the sun so it's a lot nicer to ski here, it's where the ski school is and there are lots of family runs.

Then there is the Millerett resort, this is on the other side of the village and you have to walk a bit to get to the first chair lift, this side for me was a lot more challenging and for a novice I didn't like as the runs were too steep for me, but there are plenty of runs for everyone there.

Then there is the glacier, we did not visit it as there was plenty of other options for us.

The lift pass was a strange affair as round on the Isenau resort, once you had gone up in the bubble you didn't need your pass to get on any of the lifts (which by the way are all button and drag) but you did need your pass for the Melleretts side.

I really don't want to say how lovely Les Diablerets is as I don't want others to know about it but it really does have to be said, it is amazing and the most amazing this is, there were no queues and we were then in peak period.

On the negative, Switzerland is expensive so you do pay for the quiet runs in another way, but it's worth it if you can.
