This is quite unknown to Brits, since you have to pass the mega-monster resorts of Alp d'Huez, Les Deux Alpes etc to get here so it tends to get overlooked. It's popular with the French, and for good reason - its a nice tidy couple of resorts (Super Devoluy is quite ugly, 60s, La Joue du Loup is a little more pituresque).
The lifts are fairly efficient but can get crowded around French holidays.
Again, since it's a 'French' resort, don't expect great nightlife - on the plus side you won't be surrounded by vomitting Brits.
The Devoluy mountain range is quite impressive - the slopes themselves look out over a surrounding ring of mountains which gives some great views.
at 1500-2500
