Book online at www.bretagnebb.com 4-star rating from the French B&B Agency Gîtes de France. Step back in time at Le Manoir Du Poul, located in the heart of Brittany, a region in northwestern France bordered on the north by the English Channel and on the south by the Bay of Biscay. The 3-story manor was built in 1613 and holds a very prominent place in the hearts of the people in Central Brittany. It is surrounded by 30 acres of woods with hiking paths and a park. It is located out in the country so that the only thing guest hear are the birds and an occasional farm tractor off in the distance. Centrally located, the manor is ideal for use as a home base to make day trips in all directions. The coast is only an hour and fifteen minutes away in three directions.

At first sight, frolics in Nazi-occupied France may have seemed a dubious subject for humour, but the show’s premise was not to make fun of the war but to spoof war-based film and TV dramas, and in particular a BBC1 drama about the resistance movement, Secret Army (42 episodes, 7 September 1977 to 15 December 1979). A good deal of high farce and plenty of bawdy badinage also helped move ‘Allo ‘Allo! away from reality and offence, and the fact that it was a huge hit on French TV (it was shown there on Canal+) indicates that writers Lloyd and Croft succeeded in getting the right balance. (What Germans may have thought of it is another matter…) For a real French experience for French Holidays and French Gites try http

SkiPeak.com provide exclusive Ski Holidays in France. Choosing the right late season ski resort is as difficult as selecting one just before or over Christmas, another time when snow cover can be poor. Generally it is important to aim high for guaranteed snow but may skiers, like me, prefer to stay in chalets in quiet authentic atmospheric alpine villages rather than the unattractive purpose built complexes associated with some higher resorts.
