As seen on ITV’s This Morning - how to do a Heidi ski holiday for less than £500pp

• Heidi bookings to Poland are up over 1,000% year-on-year, with Zakopane as top seller  
• Six January ski holidays you can book right now, starting from just over £250pp
• Demand for ski weekends jumps over 40% in the last month

In response to a live phone-in on ITV’s This Morning last week from a viewer looking to book her first ski holiday for less than £500, cheap holiday expert Chelsea Dickenson recommended two things: Zakopane in Poland as a cheap ski destination, and Heidi’s customisable ski holiday packages.

Heidi ski holiday bookings to Poland are in fact up over 1000% year-on-year, with Zakopane as the top seller, followed by Kotelnica and Szczyrk. Nestled at the heart of the Tatra Mountains, Zakopane is Poland’s premier winter holiday destination.

So what does Heidi offer that makes it unique? Its clever tech lets you easily find the best deals in seconds and choose from 300+ ski resorts, including great value gems like Zakopane. You can customise how long you go for and even book up to two days before departure to chase the freshest snow.

If you’re feeling the post-Christmas pinch but craving a last-minute January ski weekend, click on the ‘Weekend’ and ‘Next 2 weeks’ search filters on Heidi.com, set your budget, and see all the best deals in order of cheapest first. From ‘classics’ like Chamonix to lesser-known hidden gem resorts, here are six Heidi ski holidays you can book right now - starting from just over £250pp, departing within the next two weeks, and fully ATOL protected:

• Zakopane, Poland: £280pp for 3 nights at TatroManiac II Zakopane Pokoje Centrum, Fri 24th - Mon 27th Jan, including return London - Krakow flights and private airport transfers.
• For Bulgaria, Bankso prices start slightly lower - for example, £259pp for 3 nights at Family Hotel Dzhangal, Fri 24th - Mon 27th Jan, including return London - Sofia flights and airport transfers. 

However, Heidi recommends Borovets for a weekend trip as its airport transfer time is an hour less than Bansko’s: £330pp for 3 nights B&B at Euphoria Club Hotel in Borovets, Fri 24th - Mon 27th Jan. Including return London - Sofia flights and airport transfers. 

• Arinsal, Andorra: £326pp for 3 nights at the 4-star Sant Gothard, Fri 24th - Mon 27th Jan, including return London - Barcelona and airport transfers.
• Voss, Norway: £347pp for 3 nights B&B at the 4-star Scandic Voss, Fri 24th - Mon 27th Jan 2025, including return London - Bergen flights and train airport transfers.

Marcus Blunt, Co-Founder of Heidi, comments: "We’re passionate about making ski and snowboard holidays affordable and accessible. Our purpose is to help more people enjoy the freedom of the mountains and discover a wide range of resorts, from the ‘classics’ like Chamonix to hidden gems like Zakopane.”

He adds: “Despite budget pressures, thousands of people are using Heidi to get away to the mountains, even if it means a shorter break than the traditional 7-nighter. In the last month alone we’ve seen ski weekend bookings jump by over 40%.”
