* A lavishly illustrated guide to the most distinctive B&Bs in France, all chosen by Rivages' ultradiscriminating correspondents.
* Includes more than 500 B&Bs, from cottages deep in the unspoiled countryside to lavish cha teaus, converted mills, and manors by the sea.
* Each hostelry portrayed with a color photograph, descriptive text, and detailed information about services, facilities, rates, and what to see and do in the area.
* Lively descriptions covering ambience, decor, the history of the property, and the style, personality of the innkeeper, and how-to-get-there directions.
* Extremely detailed color road maps locating every hostelry.
* A longtime best-seller in Europe, widely used by French and German travelers (which means that your fellow guests will usually be Europeans, seldom other Americans).
