France is to visit a beautiful country look at each area with its own and feel, and I think that only Italy in Europe is coming to France for the wonderful food. The food in France is different from city to city center with seemingly every special dish, this wine is accompanied by one of the best and cheapest in the world makes for a really great experience.
The price is based on French law in theirfood and wine so its rare to find anywhere below a very good standard from the humble to tobac to the Michelin rated restaurant.
I have visited France many times and travelled quite extensively through out but I will highlight one place I have visited on a number of occasion's.
Nestling on the border of Normandy and Brittany is the Citadel of Le Mont St Michael. This is almost a fairy tale like Castle a walled town sitting upon a giant rocky outcrop in the middle of a natural harbour and only accessible by a permanent causeway. At high tide it is almost completely cut off from the mainland with surrounding country flat and low lying Le Mont St Michael can be seen from miles inland. I'm a keen cyclist so highly recommend staying within 10 km of Mont st Michael and riding to it the land is quite flat but very rural and scenic and the views as you close in on Le Mont St Michael is truly amazing.
The Border region between Normandy and Brittany is famed for its apples and many local delicacies are made from Apples such as Normandy Calvados, Cider and the wonderful Tarte de Normandy a delicious pastry filled with a set custard and Apple slices all laced with Calvados. The surrounding region is about an hours drive from the port of Cherbourg, Normandy or half an hour's drive from the Port of St Malo, Brittany. Faeries run regularly from Poole in Dorset to either of these ports, If your thinking of going I can recommend the night faerie to Cherbourg with a very comfortable car for a cheap pint of beer before going to bed you wake up and your there. Accommodation is also very sensitive to the whole of France to more cheap hotels in France.
