We go beyond the tourist trail to uncover the soul of France with dozens of dazzling destinations under the spotlight:
Wander sun-kissed destinations like arty Aix-en-Provence, and Nice, where the scent of pine mingles with the sea breeze.
Marvel at architectural icons, and discover the imperial and opulent royal party palaces of France, the fairytale castle of Azay-le-Rideau in the Loire Valley and the ethereal beauty of Sacré-Cœur in Paris – which has a secret hotel.
Meander through the most beautiful villages of France, including secret corners known only to locals, from the craggy coastlines of the north to the golden-hued stone hamlets of the south, from Corsica to Normandy.
Discover the best places to soak up summer in the city, where shaded café terraces buzz with life and history echoes down every boulevard: Dieppe, Biarritz, Le Mans, Auxerre in Burgundy, Saumur, timeless Poitiers and many more stunning towns and villages.
Step back in time with captivating tales of heritage, from the earliest artistic masterpieces of France – astonishing cave art; royal intrigue and a Queen without a crown; Nostradamus, the French prophet of doom; and discover the origins of France’s most historic – and delicious cakes.
