Single Parent Holidays in St Anton Austria
Explore some of Austria's most exciting slopes as part of a holiday for single parents. The new high speed Telebenne lift takes adventurous skiers up to fantastic unpisted bowls for plenty of thrills, but beginners need not worry as there are some lovely wide nursery slopes on the edge of the village. Intermediate level skiers will find friendly terrain at Gampen, Rendl and St Christoph and will enjoy the long blast down to Stuben. The Chalethotel Scweizerhof boasts the perfect location in St Anton, and is a great choice for single parents. Situated just five minutes walk from the ski schools and main lifts, the Scweizerhof is located in the town centre, off the main pedestrianised thoroughfare.
You can explore some of the most exciting slopes in Austria due to the new high speed Telebenne lift which takes the more adventurous skier to unpisted bowls. There's plenty for beginners too with some wide nursery slopes just on the edge of the village. Intermediates can enjoy friendly terrain at Gampen, Rendl and St Christoph down to Stuben.

Hotel facilities
Chalethotel Schweizerhof
The Schweizerhohf offers the best of both worlds – a peaceful, secluded location of the hamlet of Nasserein, but within walking distance of St Anton's lively, buzzing centre, while the slopes and ski school are a short shuttle ride away. The Chalethotel is welcoming and comfortable, decorated in Tyrolean style with wood panelling, bright colours and big picture windows: a perfect base for an Austrian ski holiday.

Children's facilities
Skiing as a family on a single parent holiday is fantastic fun but can be hard work too. That's why we provide a variety of childcare options to fit your choice of holiday, your children's age range and their ski ability.
The creches are bright, warm and bursting at the seams with toys to keep our younger guests happy. All creches are fully equipped with essentials such as: sleep area with cots for daytime naps, bottle sterilisers, fridges and potties! There are also 24-hour kitchen facilities for parents needing to make up night and early morning bottles. All our creches are fully staffed with British nannies - all of whom are top notch and hold either an NNEB, DCE, NVQ qualification, or have at least 2 years' relevant childcare experience.
Our crèches open at 9am daily allowing you to join the ski host groups or just get out on to the slopes early. For children that are booked into our childcare and who are also booked into ski school - then our nannies will escort the children to ski school and collect them after their lesson. The nannies will ensure all children are happy and settled into their class before leaving and will return to collect them for lunch or tea depending on ski school schedule. At the end of the day it's back to the chalethotel for tea. Please note that Mark Warner nannies can drop/collect children at alternative ski schools to those recommended by Mark Warner as long as the schools are running on similar times (not the Berangere or Tarentaise)
