• Sip an après drink in the hotel bar.
• Have fun with a game of table football.
• Small, friendly stay in a quiet spot.

Surrounded by views of snowy meadows and pine-covered peaks, Bepy Hotel fits the bill if you’re after a scenic stay for your Pinzolo ski trip. Moving inside, and things are light and bright, with white walls and pops of colour and plenty of pale wood. And to make the most of the scenery all around, you can opt for a bedroom with a balcony.

You’ll be staying bed and breakfast here, and there’s a hot and cold spread to set you up for a day on the mountain. Then once you’ve skied your fill, drop your gear in the boot room and swing by the bar for a tipple or two while you chat about your dinner plans.

The hotel’s in a peaceful spot on the edge of the resort, so hopping on the ski bus is your best bet to get around. The nearest stop is just over the road, and it’ll get you to the village centre and gondola station in around 10 minutes.

Pinzolo hits the spot for first-timers and families. You’re up among the peaks from day one in the nursery area at the top of the Pinzolo-Prà Rodont gondola, and little skiers have mini slaloms in the nearby kids’ area to help tune up their turns. Then when you’re ready to rack up the miles, take the Express cable car to explore 150km of piste in the wider Ski Area Campiglio.

The town itself was around long before the ski lifts arrived, and there’s a laid-back, lived-in feel to the place, with plenty of shops and restaurants lining the streets. When it comes to slopeside après, the bar at the bottom of Tulot-Malga gondola is your go-to. Or for something more leisurely, take a stroll through the centre to see the 14th-century church, before calling in at a local café for an after-ski aperitif
