"After the excitement of the holidays, there's no better time than January to jet off - whether that's for a dose of winter sun or for a skiing jaunt in the mountains. Here, we share our pick of the best destinations to bookmark to start off the new year in style."
"Once the New Year crowds have subsided, January is the perfect time to go skiing. Our first Alpine port of call is France's Haute-Savoie region, specifically, Megève. Sitting at 1,100m in the hollow of the Mont Blanc massif, it is the chicest ski resort in the French Alps. The village itself dates back to the 13th century. Still, it became fashionable in the early 20th century when the Rothschild family - seduced by its cobbled streets and traditional farmhouses - decided to create a French ski resort to rival the Swiss classic, St Moritz. As well as its spectacular time-old views from the Mont d'Arbois plateau, you can make the most of its now vast ski area, which has 235 pistes for all levels - plus cross-country ski trails. Stay just above the village at Les Fermes de Marie, a five-star hotel with cocoon-like bedrooms and rustic-luxe interiors."
