The Atlantic Aquitaine region is blessed with a mild oceanic climate and 2,200 sunshine hours per year, with the Bordeaux area having a climate similar to that of the Mediterranean – perfect for ripening the grapes and for sun starved visitors!

The Limousin, on the western slopes of the Massif Central, remains a mix of unspoilt countryside and medieval towns and is justly popular for its cameo images of beautiful village-France, whilst neighbouring Auvergne is a combination of volcanic landscapes and magnificent chateaux.

The wide ranging landscape of the Midi-Pyrenees is the setting for many leisure activities including hiking in the Pyrenees and canoeing on the river Lot, as well as discovering fine wines and the intriguing castles of the Cathars...

Finally, Languedoc-Roussillon is a blend of natural and historical landscapes incorporating the wild Camargue, home to bulls, horses and birdlife, the Canal du Midi and the spectacular walled town of Carcassonne, one of France’s most famous national treasures and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Southwest France offers unmissable adventures between the mountains and the sea.
