Holidays in Alsace

Set between the mighty River Rhine and the pine-clad Vosges Mountains, Alsace is a fascinating and beautiful region, rich in culture, gastronomy and heritage. For many, it is the enchanting villages which provide the biggest draw, with their ubiquitous flower displays and higgledy-piggledy array of half-timbered houses, painted in an attractive range of pastel hues.

Venture beyond these and you’ll find tranquil, wooded foothills crowned by lofty castles, and mile upon mile of carefully tended vineyards. From these come the well-known Alsatian wines – subtly delicious, and an excellent match for the region’s highly celebrated cuisine.
