Discover the Diversity of France: Visit the North to the South of France

France is incredibly varied, and that’s what makes it such an exciting destination. Up north, you’ll find the iconic Paris, with its romantic streets and world-class museums, only a few hours by train or a quick flight from our nearby Limoges Airport. The north of France is also home to Mont Saint-Michel, where history meets stunning natural landscapes on this island commune rising dramatically out of the sea. Head to the south of France, and, by contrast, you’ll discover the sun-soaked beaches of Saint-Tropez and the glittering Mediterranean. Coastal towns in the south are all about glamour, seaside relaxation, and chic beach clubs, offering a completely different experience from the verdant, rolling hills of inland France. In the west, the Loire Valley and its majestic châteaux are ready to enchant you with their rich history and postcard-perfect scenery, all within a few hours’ drive from our resort. And if you’re in the mood for something more off the beaten path, Provence offers charming villages, lavender fields, and a slow pace of life—pure French countryside bliss.

Central France: The Ideal Base for Exploration

What makes the Wyndham Halcyon Retreat the ideal spot is not just its luxurious amenities and serene setting—it’s that you can venture out and experience all the best of France in every direction. Whether you want to stroll through the bustling streets of Lyon famed for its gastronomy, marvel at the spectacular architecture of the Château de Chambord in the Loire Valley, or enjoy the local delicacies in Limoges, you’re perfectly situated in central France to do it all.

Inland regions like Limoges and the surrounding areas, with their medieval charm and pretty cobbled streets, offer something entirely different from the coastal regions—making your stay a rich and varied experience.
