Fantastic stay at Alba! We had everything we needed, the bed was amazingly comfortable and the location was brilliant for the skiing we wanted to do. The cabin was very clean and the hot tub was lovely on an evening. There is a brilliant welcome/info book that explains everything with brilliant recommendations and we found this so helpful! The town is a short drive away and has everything you could need. We would highly recommend a stay here

Nothing!
