Thanks I have been told that the conditions are best in March and the prices are a lot cheaper than Feb half term, can't wait to book

Stupot, I've been 2nd week of March for about the last 6 years. There's always been plenty of snow and always had great skiing.
You tend to get beautiful sunny days a lot of the time which gives you amazing skiing but can get a bit heavy going later in the afternoon.

The 17th is quite late though, most travel companies finish their season the week before that so you may find the resort quiet.
Hope this helps.
