Enjoy a luxury driving holiday through France

On Monday morning guests will convene in the morning at Chilston Park for the official start of the tour. The day will begin with a light brunch and display start. From here you will cross into France and spend the afternoon traversing the scenic backroads of the west coast, followed by a run on the Autoroute into the historic town of Lille.

On Tuesday morning you will continue the drive south with a morning run on the Autoroute, followed by an afternoon traversing a regional park in western Normandy. In the early evening the convoy will arrive into a charming historic manor full of character and seeped in Hollywood history – Les Manoirs de Tourgéville.

On Wednesday morning the group will continue north-east through the vine-covered hillsides of the Loire Valley towards Tours. The day's drive features a mix of winding backroads and faster country straights. That evening the group will stay at Les Sources de Cheverny, a newly opened five-star hotel comprising an 18th century chateau and village.

After a restful night's sleep, you will begin your fourth and final day of the drive. Today the group will return north-east across the Loire and Champagne countryside enjoying the magnificent free-flowing tarmac that cuts through the vineyards and rolling hillsides. In the later afternoon you will arrive at your final destination, Royal Champagne, a luxurious hotel offering panoramic views of Epernay.

On Friday morning guests can enjoy a well-earned sleep-in and a leisurely start to the day. Those who have not opted to join us on the day exploring Champagne can relax before onward travel plans. Alternatively, guests who have opted to join us for an exclusive day exploring a selection of Grand Maison's will meet mid-morning to commence a day of indulgence through Champagne.

For those who opted to join the additional night, following breakfast and check-out the day is yours before onward travel plans.
