From our guide to French Bed & Breakfast
White shutters against pink-washed walls, graceful steps rising to the front door, attendant palm trees… In an amazingly short time, Stéphane has restored this maison de maître to its full glory...
Painters, poets, nature-lovers: it's paradise. History and romance combine as dark 16th-century passages and uneven stone floors open into heavily beamed rooms sympathetically revived. Bedrooms are big and simply refined...
The open space, the natural beauty, the palpable sense of history – people come to France for all these reasons and because of the enviable savoir-vivre of the French people. We have burrowed deep in France and unearthed the most generous, fascinating hosts. You'll find elegant châteaux still in family hands after centuries, chalets among crags and peaks for skiers and ramblers, chambres d'hôtes dotted along the Loire and the Dordogne; perfect for cycling tours and, everywhere, unrivalled regional food. We have special places in market towns and by the sea and a stunning collection of Parisian places, too.
