Tales from the Hilltop: a Summer in the other South of France

Tales from the Hilltop: a Summer in the other South of France

Much more than a travel memoir â€¦
itâ€™s an invitation to go and see for yourself.

Whether roaming through forests of forbidden fruits or wandering in swaying fields of sunflowers, itâ€™s time to head off to the next mediaeval marvel and the next four-course feast. Pedalling along curvaceous country lanes or freewheeling through valleys and vineyards â€“ earning your supper in this sleepy corner of France is nothing short of a privilege.

Tony and Ludmilla have landed a job with a specialist cycling and walking holiday company in the South of France â€¦ but thatâ€™s not something we can hold against them for too long!

They head off to the mediaeval marvel of Cordes-sur-Ciel in the Tarn â€“ a region so achingly beautiful and laden with history and mystery they have to pinch themselves to be sure such a place really does exist.

When their cyclists turn up for a weekâ€™s pedal-powered adventure they will need a reliable back-up service when they puncture a tyre or come face to jowl with a â€˜devil dogâ€™ intent on devouring their panniers. And when their walkers take the wrong trail and find themselves humming Bonnie Tylerâ€™s â€™70s hit â€˜Lost in Franceâ€™, they too will need a timely rescue. Well, thatâ€™s the theory â€¦
