Our flexible alpine walking holidays in Austria & the Italian Dolomites

Admittedly we were blessed with near-perfect snow and weather conditions, but much of the success of this skiing holiday in the stunning beauty of the Dolomites lies at the door of Collett's in recruiting a delightful set of staff, providing good, well-priced accommodation with excellent food, and organizing "social skiing" which we (Read more...)

The staff at Haus Valentin, Justin, Olly, Millie, James and Jim, did an excellent job looking after us. They were good company, had plenty of patience, and nothing was too much trouble for them. They made our holiday very enjoyable.

As a couple of staff members were quite new, overall knowledge was excellent, but always outstanding from more experienced staff.

Ski Day in Kronplatz should be limited to just a mini bus group, so that access to the main Kronplatz area is only one lift. Going by ski bus transfer leads to lots of lifts up to the main ski area and a(Read more...)

This per-departure admin was faultless and personal so no issues...the proverbial breath of fresh air and glad to see that some people can get it right!

Your team at the airport and attendance to and at resort were really good despite having had a long inbound journey due to heavy snow. Dinner at Hotel Malita was always something t(Read more...)

Your team were very accommodating and added considerably to our stay. They are a credit to you company.

We have traveled with you for 6 consecutive years now and are totally bought into your service model.

You have a unique concept and delivery which is reflected in the level of your repeat business!

Your staff are magnificent. Love Haus Valentin and Collett's ethos. Staff are always so wonderful.

We have travelled with you previously - you are the only company we are aware of that provides the mix of skiing and snowshoe walking that we enjoy, and the staff and guests are great company.

I just wanted to say what a fantastic holiday I had recently with Collett's. Not only is the whole concept of a Ski Safari such a brilliant idea, but Collett's go the extra mile in every way to make it an outstanding experience.

The 2nd night's accommodation was unreachable due to adverse weather conditions (lifts and ski runs clos(Read more...)

What an amazing place! We have just returned from a fabulous week in Badia, staying at Haus Valentin where we were royally looked after by Justin, Alex, James, Ollie & Millie. The food was exceptional & the winter walking great! We will be back....soon! Thank you so much.

A great week at Chalet Angelo skiing and snow-shoeing. The team at the chalet are welcoming, knowledgeable and great fun, and Cat's cooking is superb. Can't praise them enough. Scenery is stunning, and the good variety of guided snow-shoeing made it a memorable holiday. Thanks to all!

Fabulous ski holiday in Corvara 20-27 January
We were an extended family group of varying ski ability and age, a return visit for us, and we all had a fantastic week. We very much enjoyed the ski itineraries organised by Greg and Sandy who had excellent knowledge of the pistes and rifugios. They were also great company, had immense (Read more...)

Thanks to Clare, Ben and Robin for an excellent week and for the hard work of them and all your staff in getting us out of the resort after heavy snowfalls on the last couple of days.

We have just returned from another great week at Ciasa Roch in Corvara. We have to commend you on the recruitment of your teams as once again they were so efficient and friendly and helped to make the week such a great experience. Greg, Sandy, Ali and John worked so well as a team but were also delightful individuals. Petra and her(Read more...)

You undersell the level of accommodation that I experienced during last week's ski safari. 'Often surprisingly comfortable' doesn't do justice to the splendid accommodation that I was lucky enough to have - particularly regarding cuisine. Yes, there was sharing a twin bed with another client and there was one night in a bunk bed, but (Read more...)

Great staff & accommodation in a beautiful location!
Lots to do including snowshoeing & skiing.
Food was superb, traditional, fresh & plentiful.
Would (& will) return.

On the staff’s night off they very kindly booked a local pub which was a very good choice! The food and accommodation were e(Read more...)

Take a ski break to the Dolomites with Collett's and you'll never be alone on the slopes. The young confident and enthusiastic team organise whole day ski trips throughout the week as well as taking care of you when back at the Chalet. Thank you to the wonderful team at Chalet Angelo.

A very warm welcome on arrival at Haus Valentine by Milly and her fantastic team. The enthusiasm and efficiency of all the staff was admirable. I had two supper days skiing with Jim, another great day with Ollie to the ‘James Bond’ run (not sure of name) and a good day with Milly.
I really enjoyed the week, all made possible by the(Read more...)

We had a great week skiing. The weather was perfect and the scenery is stunning. We were looked after very well in Chalet Angelo. The staff were all great and worked hard. We enjoyed the ski hosting, no need to look at maps or plan routes, just ski and enjoy. Would love to return.

Our grateful thanks to the excellent staff at Chalet Angelo. They welcomed us and looked after us throughout week with charm, good humour and attentiveness, both in the Chalet and on our guided skiing. You can be justly proud of them. Thank you so much!.

I have never been as happy with any staff on any holiday I have ever been as I was with Claire, Ben, Ben and Robin. They are truly a credit to your company. Nothing was too much trouble for them. They regularly went above and beyond.

Been with you before and we are big fans. Even more so now. Will be returning.

My wife and I have just returned from a Collett's walking holiday in the Dolomites.Cant recommend it enough it was fantastic, we stayed at Haus Valentin in Badia all the staff were fantastic and met some nice people.

The team in Arabba were outstanding throughout. Claire, Robin, Ben and Ben were really terrific - not just helpful they were great company. Really excellent throughout! Thank you for a truly terrific holiday.

I loved my first attempt at cross country skiing so much that I would love you to organise a beginners week.

We have had a wonderful holiday.

ALL your staff are amazing. We really admire you for taking on people like Danny and for giving your young resort staff such a great opportunity. Thank you for an absolutely brilliant holiday.

Enjoyed a great week in Hotel Panorama, Corvara which was very comfortable, with delicious breakfasts and dinners and very friendly and helpful staff. Collett's were very efficient and helpful both in England and Italy. I had a bad knee so only snowshoed once, but James was very encouraging and kind when our projected route lengthene(Read more...)

We had a great week in Corvara, skiing. Nearly every day we benefited from, and enjoyed, the company of Sandy, Ali and John from Collett's. It was great not to have to get our heads around the piste maps, but to say where we fancied skiing, and using the local knowledge to use the best slopes and restaurants. We found their recomme(Read more...)

Nice accommodation and food, brilliant helpful staff. Everything was spot on. We will come again.

Truly outstanding holiday with Collett's in Chalet Angelo, Corvara. Staff were awesome. Food great. Cleanliness great. Skiing advice and hosting really appreciated. Thanks!
