Castle/Chateau stay in Burgundy or nearby Chablis or Reims

Hi all!

My fiancé and I will be travelling through France in early November and are hoping to make part of the trip extra special with a château/castle stay 🏰

We’ll be leaving Arbois and heading toward Paris, where we’ll stay a few nights before flying back to Australia. We’d love to break up that journey with a one-night stay somewhere memorable-ideally in Burgundy, Chablis, around Reims, or anywhere along that general route. Our itinerary is pretty flexible!

We’re looking for somewhere romantic and cosy with lots of character. Bonus points for vineyards on-site or nearby, beautiful grounds, or a bit of history. Doesn’t have to be ultra-luxury, but we’re open to a splurge for the right place. Thinking around $450-$650AUD maybe?

If anyone has recommendations, personal experiences, or hidden gems along that route, I’d love to hear them!

Thanks so much 😊

Thermal Baths; Hot Springs

Bonjour!

We are traveling by car for 5 weeks through France after spending a week in Paris.

We enjoy a good soak and have been fortunate to visit some nice spots in Spain, Greece, New Zealand, and Patagonia over the past 5 years.

Our route is basically from leaving Paris towards Brittany, Normandy, Loire Valley, Dordogne, Carcassonne, Marseille, Nice, Aix en Provence, Annecy and back to CDG.

Any recommendations along the way for free or at least non expensive soaking options. We're seniors.

Merci

Robert

Planning a trip to France in June or July for 10 days!

Hey guys,

I am planning a trip to France. I am coming from the Netherlands and my first stop would be Paris and then head towards Normandy spend few days here and also visit the Étretat. I was wondering if Nomady is the right place to go in early June to early July?

On my search for things to do everything looks nice but Will it be too crowded?

Is there anything else you think we should do our 10 days trip? Me and my husband are trying to plan n idyllic relaxing trip after all the stress we had in past few months. So, anything chill and considerably easy to reach by a car or train, we are up for it.

Thanks in advance

🚚 Quel fourgon acheter pour l'aménager 🚚

Mon premier fourgon emménagé​

J'y pense déjà, parce que ce sont des choses qui sont préférables d' étudier à l'avance, et surtout pas au dernier moment, comme une semaine avant l'achat.

Surtout pour une première fois, et des tas de choses sont à voir. Pour combien de personnes, des animaux à bord, pour combien de temps et avec quel confort, quel budget etc etc.

South of France - Restaurant thoughts

I'm going to Antibes and Saint Jean Cap Ferrat in June - 4 nights in each. I'm trying to plan out lunches/dinners and could use some feedback.

I was hoping to go to Eden Roc for dinner, but it's hard getting a reservation. Is lunch worth it? If so, thoughts on The Grill vs Eden Roc Restaurant? The menu look better at the Grill, but since we are going all the way there I want to make sure it's the best food/vibe/view- overall experience.

We don't love coursed menus, so trying to find top restaurants - fancy to old school family spots that are must visits. Here's what I have so far - would love feedback and any recommendations for places I missed.

Chez Jules - antibes

La Taille de Guêpe - antibes

Bistro Margaux - antibes

Brulot - antibes

African Queen - SJCF

Jardin Exotique - Èze

La Mère Germaine - Villa Sur Mer

Please let me know your thoughts and if any places I should add! Merci!!!
