From our guide to French Hotels & Châteaux
In endlessly flat countryside, set back from the main road in its own walled grounds, this 'castel romantique' has been graciously managed by Danielle Renard for more than 20 years...
A 21st-century fairy tale: a 500-year-old château was abandoned by its owners for 30 years, then rediscovered by the heir who left sunny yellow Provence for cool green pastures...
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.
