Experience France with Sky Limit Travels:

The relationship between the British and French has had its ups and downs over the years, but our love for all things French shows no sign of abating. From the Channel ports to the islands of the Mediterranean, Sky Limit Travels ensures that Francophiles are never short of new destinations to discover.

There are few better ways to enjoy the French countryside than in your own villa with a private pool. Sky Limit Travels' favorite self-catering destinations include the Dordogne, Provence, and the Côte d’Azur.

Head to Aquitaine in the south-west for pristine sandy beaches, surfing, and seafood. Cross a bridge to the idyllic island of Ile de Ré to find historic villages, pine forests, and cycle paths—this may be our favorite destination in the whole of France.

We also highly recommend the beaches of Corsica, which are frankly more beautiful than the mainland beaches. If you want to crack open a few bottles, relax, and watch the countryside roll by, Sky Limit Travels can arrange a luxury barge trip with gourmet meals, fine wines, and excursions included—though this isn’t cheap.

In the French Alps, you can ski on a budget in winter, while the mountains make a great destination for a summer activity holiday. Other holiday ideas from Sky Limit Travels include renting a chateau (less expensive than you might think), taking a self-guided cycling holiday, and soaking up the sunshine and glamour in Nice.
