Destination
Manor houses, vineyards and pools shaded by plane trees. Every villa here has four or more bedrooms and its own private pool; availability is confirmed personally when you enquire.
France has more genuinely large houses than anywhere else we look: manor houses and chateaux built for households of twenty, now with pools where the kitchen garden used to be. The Dordogne and Gascony are big-group heartland; Provence and the Cote d'Azur add glamour; the Loire and Brittany keep journeys short for cross-Channel parties.
It is the easiest big-group logistics in Europe: drive down with the car full, or fly into a dozen regional airports. Markets, vineyards and rivers fill the days without anyone needing a plan.
