A seductive collection of over 320 hotels, châteaux, auberges and other places beautiful, unusual and great value all selected and inspected in the best Sawday tradition: they are here because we like them. At inns, or restaurants with rooms, food takes priority and le terroir seasonal, fresh and local food is de rigueur. In the châteaux, intimate dinners are hosted around a communal table.
Alastair Sawday Publishing has earned a reputation for selecting original places that exude character and warmth and for describing them vividly in fresh and honest write-ups. We have no interest in standard star ratings and always go for atmosphere, welcome and value for money over satellite television and tea and coffee making facilities.
