La Rochelle - A coastal city nicknamed La Ville Blanche for its mass of limestone buildings, La Rochelle was once one of France’s most important ports. It’s famed for its maritime history and quaint Old Town that’s filled with medieval and Renaissance architecture, including the Tower of the Lantern lighthouse and the Saint-Nicholas Tower fortress.
Île de Ré - A small flat island with white-washed houses, sandy beaches and miles of cycle tracks to explore. At the lively harbour of St Martin-de-Ré, children can ride on the ‘donkeys in pantaloons’ - traditional clothing that protected the animals from mosquitoes out on the salt marshes.
