Château Breaks
Unwind in style in one of our châteaux or manor houses.
With only a few days to spare to get away relax and pamper yourself, there's probably no better way than with a luxury break in a château or manor house. The impressive buildings, décor and grounds of these properties are simply wonderful, and the standards of comfort and cuisine are always exceptional.
Situated just over the channel, they are easily accessible for a short break and many of our Great Escapes customers return to France for a château break time and time again..
Whether you're looking to celebrate a special occasion, wanting a relaxing weekend away in superb surroundings or you want to buy some bubbly at low prices, a short break in the Champagne region will satisfy. The rolling vineyards, lush green fields and historic towns provide the perfect backdrop for a romantic break; and a glass or two of the world-famous bubbly will also help mark the occasion. The famous town of Reims or the less discovered Troyes are favourites; however the towns of Chalon, Epernay and L'Epine are also worth a visit.
