Norfolk Snowsports Club — Attraction in South Norfolk

Awesome place, archaic pricing Members only and annual membership is £48, or you can pay £17 a time. No semi annual or quarterly options, for those who only want to ski in say the winter. Then you need a supervised lesson first time which is £11 After that it's, £9 per hour, but add the £17 membership if you didn't get it annually. Was planning to go a few times before a ski holiday but it's really geared against that. The timetable is weird too. Working full time and looking for open practice after work? Nope: weekends, 90 mins after 8pm, or nothing. Thursday's have an invite only session 7 till 10.15pm but... invite only? Not even "by appointment" so you can book, just presumably luck of the draw? Other days are lessons or snowboards, suggesting skiers and snowboarders can't mix? Other than that there's a great selection of events and kids clubs worked in, but seemingly at the detriment to those just hoping to ski after work occasionally.

Seems great if you're either 1) just going once for a birthday party or one off event, or 2) if you're an avid skier/boarder, but if you're in between it's pretty poor. At least make the invite only an open ski and offer 6 month memberships, or better yet just bin the membership programme/make it voluntary so it's not cost upon cost upon cost. It's not even a high cost for way it is, just a flat rate would be preferable so you know what you'll be paying and it's the same each time

The slopes itself are really good, but all of the above me and I haven't gone yet and last went...

My son has his birthday party here at the weekend. Tubing is great. They had a fab time. We had booked the function room too for party food and drinks. Despite it saying on the website that each child will get a meal, it now comes as a party buffet. Initially sounded great, but when arriving after the tubing for food, we were only given 2 trays of food. There were 5 burgers chopped in half, about halfway dozen sausages cut up and probably 20 chicken clean nuffets. And then some chips , which there were plenty of. Oh and 2 jugs of squash. We had paid £140 for the room and food for 20 children, and honestly it was a rip off! The kids that wanted chicken nuggets got 2 each and half a burger for those that wanted that! The sausages we basically not even enough for a whole sausage each. Some of the kids didn't get anything, they only got chips. Some of these kids were teenagers too! How can you expect the amount of food to be acceptable?! And then my husband went to get the other jugs of squash that we should of had to be told he needed to pay for more. Thank goodness I had cake so the kids had something to eat. Luckily my son didn't notice his sad friends with the food so it didn't ruin his day, but honestly I'm really disappointed with the way...

I just completed a beginners course. I really enjoyed it and felt like I learned a lot. The instructor was excellent and amazing that he was volunteering his own time. My only negative feedback would be that the course was six hours run over two consecutive days. The first day was great but after the first hour or so of the second day I was beginning to feel tired and by the last hour I was completely exhausted. After doing well up to that point my progress platoed and I feel that this really undermined ability to improve. The others in my group were reporting the same and the atmosphere of the group completely changed from fun and supportive to more negative and frustrated. The instructor himself acknowledged that the two three hour sessions are not the best format for beginners. I understand that this is a busy time of year and they want to get as many people as possible booked on but I would have much preferred to have shorter sessions with more time in-between. Everyone else seemed to feel the same. That said I would highly recommend learning to ski here but I would just think twice about booking the two longer sessions...
