4.        Bonjour Paris
Its excellent articles and features make this much more that just a straightforward travel guide. for example, the Food and Wine section currently has stories such as 'Alain Ducasse: France’s Super-Chef' and 'A Beginner’s Guide to French Cheeses' and the very practical 'Great Restaurants at Half Price', a stand-by late-booking service covering many parts of France. Restaurant reviews are comprehensive and cover a range of styles and prices. Bonjour Paris also hosts Chat sessions and Discussion forums, many of which are on food-related topics.

18.        The Farm Cottage
Heart
The Farm Cottage at Chez Le Brun is exactly the type of quiet, relaxed environment that inner-London executives crave for a break from the stress and worry of their frenzied existence. The cottage is close to the charming, historic village of Confolens - but not too close, so the only sounds you hear are the bleating of sheep and the chirping of birds! However it is only a short drive into the village to buy your vegetables at the market or your baguette for breakfast.
It is a very comfortable cottage with two bedrooms, so it is ideal for a family or a small group who want to escape city life for a relaxing break.
