Provence

France

France has been a favourite of the British for many years and is the world’s leading tourist destination, it’s somewhere that has an allure for so many people. Home to some of the most famous historical sites in the world, and a culture like no other in Europe attract people year after year.

Naturally, you’ll find France on the bucket list of many – ticking off the big names like the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, Notre Dame, the Moulin Rouge, as well as the big museums in Paris. Heading out into the regions, wine is an important part of the French way of life – where you can visit the Champagne region in the east, and the Bordeaux region in the west.

During the winter, France is also a mecca for snow lovers with some of the best and well-kept ski resorts in Europe. Easily accessible for the Brits, with just a short flight to either Geneva or Grenoble – you’ll find world-class skiing as well as world-class apre-ski, and for those who don’t ski maybe some shopping.

France has a well-earned place in the heart of many, with so much to offer for anyone, and any generation.
