Alastair Sawday's Special Places to Stay: French Chateaux & Hotels

Our 6th edition of this guide holds the most exciting collection to date; some 350 places in all. Dip in and find over hundred châteaux, with towers & turrets galore. Stay in a humble auberge in Alpes de Haute Provence, a stone mill in Burgundy or live it up in a boutique hotel in Biarritz.  Traveling with company? Book an entire hamlet on a mountaintop in the Pyrénées! All places are inspected and selected because we like them. Take tours of elegant wine-producing châteaux, or join private cookery courses and wine tastings – all the details you need are here. There’s great value too - with 270 places under €120 for a double.
