As the seasons roll on by, the change in weather never fails to bring out different façades to this award-winning historic hotspot. Whilst spring and summer bring visitors onto the beaches and into the markets, autumn and winter sees tourists hitting the streets of the region’s old medieval towns in search of a Christmas market or food festival (hence the need to visit several times.)
With miles and miles of ever-changing landscapes, dozens of ‘The Most Beautiful Villages in France’ and countless seasonal activities to revel in, the main challenge is knowing how to go about planning your perfect holiday in the sun or romantic winter getaway.
So to take some weight off those shoulders, we’ve devised a brief with everything you need from ‘crossing the pond’, getting around and finding the perfect accommodation to deciding whether or not Rover should come along for the ride. The only difficult part will be choosing which time of year to visit but don’t worry, we’ll help you take care of that too…
