Switching off at Plates Farm hotel, in Gascony, France
Come with me to this beautifully restored farmhouse retreat in Southwest France, curated by the team behind the popular Plates restaurant in London.
- The stay
- Book direct or through Booking.com
- Getting there
- Take a train or flight to Bordeaux, or Toulouse. Drive 1 hour to the hotel.
- What I paid
- Discounted at €175 per night (usually €200 p/n)
- Would I return?
- Absolutely, I'd love to try one of their retreats!
The bits I liked. The bits I didn’t. Both belong in the same review.
