Mediterranean France arouses the senses with a heady cocktail of light and colour, and this fourth edition of Cadogan's guide serves it up with verve. It's all here: the arty Riviera, sunny Provencal villages perches, the serene Canal du Midi, cloud-topped Cathar castles, and the landscapes that inspired Van Gogh and Cezanne, Dufy and Matisse. This fully updated and revised edition contains sympathetic and entertaining insights into art and architecture, people and places: inspired and discerning listings on where to stay, eat, shop and sunbathe; and practical and reliable advice on wine, travel, festivals and food.

From the Back Cover:
The South of France, a sun-drenched land of olive groves and lavender, grapevines and mimosa blossom, has bewitched painters, poets, and medieval popes. Its intoxicating light inspired Van Gogh, Cezanne and Matisse; its azure coast drew writers, reprobates and the beau monde of Europe. Cadogan's guide - passionate, opinionated, witty and informed - explores this enchanted region, from the glittering excesses of the Cote d'Azur to the untouched wilderness of the Languedoc-Roussillon; the crystalline beauty of the Provencal Alps to the edges of the Pyrenees. Along the way, no southern stone is left unturned: discover vertiginous villages perches; cypress-lined avenues and isolated coves; enjoy the region's finest bouillabaisse; or luxuriate in the heavenly scents of Provencal herbs.
Inside you will find: practical travel advice; over 600 hand-picked places to stay; over 450 restaurants, bars and cafes; 56 maps and plans; color touring-map section; stunning color photographs; vintners' tales and vineyard visits.
