Cruise the French Canals

We are delighted to announce a new partnership with CanalBargeCruises who specialise in cruises and barging across Europe. They bring over 20 years experience both as an operator and agent for barges. From our personal experience, we highly recommended them - for us, it was a week we'll always treasure cruising the canals of Burgundy. See Barging page.

French Classes - Sydney, Central Coast, Paris

Term 4 classes start in late October in Epping and Killcare for Beginners and Continuers. Please register your interest to avoid disappointment. In addition, our partner French Language Institute in France has courses available for all levels and ages in Paris. Contact us for information.

A Jewel in Brittany

Hotel Arvor is a delightful hotel in the midst of the stunning medieval town of Dinan. Within easy driving distances are the famed Mont St Michel, the lively old port of St Malo and for abundant fresh seafood, Cancale. Dinan can be reached by train, and offers easy access to Channel ferries and airports. For more info see Hotel Arvor.

ANZAC Day 2015 - Villers Bretonneux

If you're thinking of attending next year's ceremony at Villers Bretonneux, then we have a glorious château (Château d'Omiecourt) in the region that is close to many notable WW1 sites and not far from the excellent Museum of the Great War. Interest for next year is high, so book soon with us and receive your bonus.
