It’s been a cracking season in the Alps so far this year, and agents report a fl urry in enquiries for ski property, also helped by the rise in the pound against the euro. Liz Rowlinson scans the slopes for the best buys for three different budgets…

€118,800 (£98k) Where: Les Deux Alpes, France
If you prize location over space, this one-bed 34m2
resale property is basic, but it’s only 800 metres from the ski lift in this top-tier resort and does come with wifi and a 10m2
balcony.

€122,000 (£101k) Where: Pralognan, France
If you’re a nature-lover who doesn’t want to be in the centre of a rowdy resort, this could be for you. It’s small – a 20m2
studio apartment with a 4m2
balcony – but it’s ski in-ski out and perfect if you just want somewhere to collapse after a day on the slopes. It’s 15 minutes drive from A-list Courchevel for more demanding pistes. Contact: Sextant Properties: 020 7428 4910,

€40,031 (£33,522) Where: Borovets, Bulgaria
This is not cheap for Bulgaria these days but it is in the country’s oldest and most accessible ski resort. Based in a gated complex within Rila National Park, just one minute from the piste, this studio is a decent 44m2
but without a balcony. One or two bedrooms are available. Contact: Bulgarian Properties: 00 359 291150,

Part of the La Plagne network of villages, Le Coches is a quiet, authentic village with no great apres ski but access to the vast Paradiski domain. You get a one-bedroom 25m2
apartment with a 5m2
balcony and a ski locker. Leggett Immobilier, 08700 115 151, www.
