		<description><![CDATA[The south-western corner of France, on the border with Spain, is well known for popular resorts such as Biarritz and for the western Pyrenees mountains that lie a little way inland &#8211; you can visit the beach in the morning and go for a walk in the mountains in the afternoon&#8230; Perhaps less well known here in the Pyrenees-Atlantiques region of France are the traditional basque villages, but it is highly recommended that you include a few as part of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[To list all of the lovely villages scattered across Provence would be a substantial job to say the least &#8211; at every turn there is another hamlet perched on a precipitous hilltop, a perfectly preserved medieval village with locals sitting on benches in the shade of ancient plane trees, or a small town where the boules court is the heart of social activity. Our first recommendation would be to head inland from the coast a little way, or away from [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Argentat is a small town in the southern Correze, at the heart of the Valley of the Dordogne region. It won&#8217;t take you long to explore and discover the highlights but be sure you do because it is a very lovely little town in an enviable setting. The old town in Argentat, the region behind the quais a little up the hill from the river, has some exceptional buildings to discover, dating mostly from the 16th-17th centuries,  including among others [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Ariege department of south-west France is often visited for the countryside and scenery, and the chance to enjoy outdoor activities, but there are also some interesting towns and villages to discover and explore &#8211; and one of these is Mirepoix. Situated to the north-east of Ariege (south-east of Toulouse, south-west of Carcassonne), Mirepoix is a small market town that contains a great deal of history. The town as we now see it dates from the 13th century and later. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mussidan is a sizable town in the (less visited) north-west of the Dordogne region, north of Bergerac. Escaping from the impact of tourism is perhaps a good thing for a town &#8211; but tourism also brings with it facilities, and money for maintenance. Perhaps the best way to describe Mussidan is that it has escaped both the benefits and the &#8216;perils&#8217; of tourism. Unfortunately these perils are what visitors are looking for, and it is true that you do need [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The action packed town of Saint-Tropez stands just a few kilometres from Grimaud, and in dramatic contrast! If you are visiting the Riviera and want to leave the car behind, why not take the train? It is possible to get to Grimaud on a little tourist train that parts from Port Grimaud, the coastal &#8216;twin&#8217; of Grimaud and itself a sophisticated town &#8211; a nice hassle free way to reach the village. A visit to this super-attractive perched viillage is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sarlat, &#8216;unofficial&#8217; capital of the Dordogne department and tourist magnet because of its extraordinary number of medieval buildings, is in the centre of a very attractive region. This is not news! Most visitors to the region around Sarlat venture along the Dordogne River to see the villages and castles, and head up the Vezere Valley for the prehistoric sites. But to the south, towards Villefranche-du-Perigord, the region and places are much less well known. This is a shame, because it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Aubeterre sur Dronne is a remarkable village about 20 km west of Riberac. The most fascinating thing about it is its underground church, the Eglise souterraine Saint Jean. This has been hewn out of the rock and is 20 metres high at its highest point. It is the tallest of its kind in the world &#8211; entering the church really is an incredible experience. As well as the main nave which has a full-immersion baptismal font and a reliquary which [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Bergerac is found in the region of south-west france known as Purple Perigord &#8211; Perigord is the &#8216;ancient&#8217; name for the region that now largely includes the Dordogne, and &#8216;purple&#8217; for the wines grown in the region. It is a lively active town that often gets overlooked as visitors head to the quaint villages and ancient castles of the Dordogne region to the east. Bergerac itself is not the most exciting town in the world, but it is attractive, has [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Monpazier is a small town (OK, village) to the south of the Dordogne region, and south of Domme. A little removed from the main highlights that follow the Dordogne river, Monpazier is none the less firmly on the tourist circuit &#8211; and if you are visiting the Dordogne it should be on yours! The region to the south of the Dordogne and into Lot-et-Garonne was once a wild, undeveloped region &#8211; and also the frontier between French and English territory [...]]]></description>
