from £169 per person

We've just found this great deal from Lastminute.com for a quick getaway this winter. Catch a Eurostar train overnight from St Pancras on a Friday evening, to arrive bright and early on the slopes at Les Arcs the next morning! Spend the whole day skiing, and then in the evening, you hop back on a train to London again! No hotels/hostels required.

Just a word of caution...the Eurostar sleeper train doesn't give you any sort of bed. You will have to try and catch as much sleep as you can in your standard class seat. Saying that, you don't have to change trains...so it should be a fairly relaxing journey!
