Pas-de-Calais

A bright, colourful lodge, part of an 18th-century abbey with a private garden, swimming pool, books, games and a cosy fire

A period manor and pretty rooms in old stables: a quiet base for Pas-de-Calais and Picardie. Madame loves the house, animals, story-telling

Simple rooms on a spotless farm, delightful hosts, delicious fruit tarts at breakfast on Sundays. The perfect stopover en route to Calais

Tremendous value particularly considering the delicious dinners, large, comfy rooms and a pair of wonderful hosts who look after you so well

You’re wrapped in parkland here and close to the coast, gardens and war memorials. A treat of a stop-over for foodies

In history-rich Arras, close to the WW1 memorials, a remarkably authentic 1750's mansion with statues and an elegant knot garden

An ideal stopover at a handsome 1790 house on the edge of a small village surrounded by beautiful countryside and with friendly young owners

Rare as a bird, a proper old fashioned French inn on the side of the road in a sleepy village, a restoration project for the new owners
