Review

The lush French countryside with its magnificent chateaux and incredible food and wines has all the right ingredients for a wonderful holiday and that's before you get to France's bustling market towns and elegant capital. It's easy to find a great spot for a picnic or a leisurely café au lait but finding the right place to stay can be slightly more demanding. That's where the AA France's Top Bed & Breakfast book comes in--every entry in the guide has been individually selected and comes with the French Tourist Authority's stamp of approval. To call the vast majority of entries in the book B&B is to do them a grave disservice--luxurious chateaux, elegant town houses and charming old mills feature strongly in the listings.

The book is divided into five regions (including Paris) and has a 28-page atlas at the front to help you find your way to your chosen guest house. Each entry is accompanied by a full-colour photograph, together with description, contact details and a list of the local delicacies and places of interest. The user-friendly format makes this guidebook ideal for planning a trip from home and a great glove compartment resource once you're on the road. --Linda Sinclair
