We absolutely loved the snowmobiling followed by fantastic sausages and cheese cooked in the open fire. There was certainly plenty of food and the mulled wine went down well :-). Then onto the thermal baths, these are fantastic! With a great swim up bar for the drinkers amongst us! All in all a brilliant day! Would definitely recommend!”
