Excellent small family orientated resort. Main hotel accommodation excellent, evening meals were more limited due to size of resort. Skiing was great as was ski school for son. If going in busy period ie half term etc ski school needs to be booked well in advance.

Gausta is probably the most beautiful ski resort I've ever been to - It was quiet, with very well groomed slopes, efficient lifts with short queue times, very friendly staff, and delicious options for food during the day and in the evening. (Amazing pastries/hot chocolates at the bakery and pizzas at Stova!) There was a really good mixture of slopes for all abilities, although having been to larger ski resorts, we did find that we had skiied every single slope by the third day of our holiday!
