Where to stay… for a great view

This month’s accommodation feature centres on great places to stay in France for a self-catered holiday. Whether it’s a lakeside retreat, rural hideaway or Mediterranean villa we bring you the places where the view will take your breath away.

Land of the Troglodytes

Caves are not the first type of residence that spring to mind when you think of the Loire Valley. However, the local limestone, formed from the compression of sand particles and fossilised organisms over millions of years, is the stone once used by inhabitants to build homes that would be warm in the winter and refreshingly cool in the summer. In this full-length feature we explore how troglodyte caves are a common feature of the area between Angers and Saumur and now serve as everything from hotels and museums to a winery and an animal park.

Plus, we visit the thriving town of Lens in Pas-de-Calais, one of several cities hosting the EURO 2016 football matches, retrace the life of literary master Marcel Proust, explore the history behind France’s favourite sweets and hear from acclaimed author and actress Carol Drinkwater about a Parisian market trader’s royal encounter
