Feb Half Term Ski Week Sansicario, 2027

Sansicario, Italy | A family ski holiday done properly

14th - 21st February (Sunday - Sunday)

Archie's Family Ski Week is our signature way to do family skiing, designed for parents who want a brilliant ski holiday and a proper break, and for kids who want to ski, make friends and have loads of fun both on and off the mountain.

This isn't a mass-market ski package. It's a carefully curated week where everything is taken care of from the moment you land… so you can relax, ski, and actually enjoy being on holiday as a family.

Brand new for 26/27, we're bringing the Archie's experience to Sansicario for the first time. Sitting at the heart of the Via Lattea — one of Europe's great ski areas, Sansicario gives families access to over 400km of pistes across five connected resorts straddling the Italian-French border. Bigger mountain, more variety, and terrain to suit every level.

Think of it as skiing with your favourite super-organised friend, who knows all the best spots, has thought of everything, and makes it all feel effortless. Just in a brand new resort.

What makes Archie’s Family Ski Week different?

From the second you touch down, you're looked after.

  • Private airport transfers from Turin or Milan (self-drive also welcome)

  • Half-board accommodation

  • Welcome drinks on arrival

  • Kids' ski lessons

  • Full kids' club programme

  • Chaperoned mornings to ski hire & lessons

  • On-mountain HQ for afternoon fun

  • Big Italian lunches for the kids

  • Two dedicated kids' movie nights

  • Time and freedom for parents to ski, relax or explore

It's a proper family holiday, but with real breathing space for parents, and loads of structure, care and fun for kids.

For the kids

Your children are busy, happy and looked after from morning to late afternoon. Our team:

  • Collects and chaperones them to ski hire and ski school with the brilliant Action Ski School

  • Chases after them to get videos and photos during lessons

  • Hosts them at our on-mountain HQ after skiing

  • Runs games, challenges and downtime

  • Organises big, fun Italian lunches

  • Brings them back safely in the afternoons

They make friends, gain confidence, and feel part of something — while you get guilt-free ski time and downtime. If you want to pop in and take them out for a few runs then drop them back, that's super easy as well. It's completely flexible.

For the parents

You get:

  • Proper ski days on one of Europe's great mountains

  • Long lunches on the slopes with views across the Via Lattea

  • A wander around Sauze d'Oulx, a charming Italian mountain town just 5 minutes away

  • Organised ski lessons (if you want) or we will help organise social skiing with similar levels with other parents, again only if you want...

  • Two kids' movie nights so you can enjoy supper, drinks or a quiet night to yourselves

It's a holiday for you too, not just the kids.

Don’t just take our work for it…

Everything you could wish for with a family skiing holiday. We had a truly magic time in Courmayeur where our 4 year old learnt to ski, was fed pizza and pasta and played with new friends. We also went skiing, ate pizza and pasta and had the odd snooze - heaven. Thank you Archie!

Thanks for an amazing first family ski week. Happy children = happy parents :-) Archie’s extra attention on the first day to get our daughter up to speed to stay with the rest of the group saved the whole trip and the kids are still asking when they can see Madi and Riley again, who looked after them so incredibly.
