The location and setting
The character and authenticity

The prospect of a long journey in France is always something I relish & we have collated a map that offers anyone heading on a road trip in France an alternative to motorway service stations. The map brings together wonderful food-related stories and fond memories from our clients and colleagues, as well as some of our own recommendations.
The map features restaurants, bistros, swim spots, lovely places for a picnic, as well as places that are simply near the motorway and a great place to take a break and have a leg-stretch. The map will be launched early next year. It will be continually updated and members of the community will be able to offer feedback so that, hopefully, the map will be an enjoyable and reliable resource.

If you need help with any of the above, do get in touch.
