Victoria Beckham Spices up the Spanish Pyrenees

Sure all the après-ski glam in Europe is focused on the Alps, however, the Spanish Pyrenees is a relatively quiet, queue-less alternative.  Just two hours from Barcelona, the Spanish Pyrenees is basically two resorts--La Molina and Masella. This past week, Posh got her Spanish powder fill on what appeared to be a Beckless ski vacation. So when British fembots are in the Spanish Pyrenees where do they go? Might as well guess, right?

Where To Stay, Eat, & Spa:
La Pleta Hotel & Spa. The Spanish Pyrenees is not dotted with swank hotels--more like cookie cutter hotels that offer little in the way of extras. That being said, La Pieta Hotel & Spa in Baqueira-Beret, should sufficiently impress most fembots.  First and foremost, this place offers oversized beds, which many European hotels don't.   The mountain spa is surrounded by Pyrenean scenery, and the tiny town pubs aren't far off either.  There is a shuttle for easy access to Baqueira where you can sample plenty of local pubs.  The resort also houses a restaurant that specializes in Catalan cuisine.

Where To Ski:
La Molina The oldest ski resort in Spain has plenty of powder.  Apparently, the resort is in the midst of its best conditions in thirty years.  There are only two bars on-site and the après-ski is light, which is perfect for fembots looking for a quiet winter environment.
