Locations in the French Countryside which a Doctor might recommend to Relax

Taking care of our health also means taking some time off. Working is certainly good for the brain, and it is what enables us to survive, but it can also become detrimental to our health, if we never take the decision to stop. One of the places you can head to, when you need to rebalance your life, is the French Countryside. There you will reconnect with nature, while visiting some amazing sites. Here are some of them.

Stay in a Luxury Camping

One of the advantages of such a trip is that you can find a luxury camping in France, where you won’t have to do anything anymore. Every action that you would undertake in a normal day, will be handled by the people on site. You can also practice many different physical activities, such as swimming and going for long walks through the forests located nearby, for a refreshing bowl of fresh air. Choosing a camping site is certainly the best way to do everything and nothing at the same time. You will come back refresh and ready to go again. 

The Loire Valley

If luxury is what you are looking for, then you will be served when visiting the Loire Valley. Not only will you be able to visit some of the most famous wineries in the world, but you will also be offered a spectacle by the beauty that nature in the region has to offer, such as landscapes that you see in movies, and wonder where you can find such perfection to the eyes. You will also witness luxury from another time, as you visit royal palaces that used to be filled with the best that these times had to offer, as well. Instead of planning, don’t think and just follow the Loire River, where you will encounter picturesque villages, all along the way. Stop at vineyards to taste wines from grapes that have been growing there since the time of the Roman Empire.

The Luberon

When you think of relaxing, you usually imagine lying under the sun. If that is the case, you may want to head to the Luberon region. It is located in the South of France, where sun rays are more popular than in the North of the country. It is a place where you will cross the ordinary French people, who also like to live well, like you, as they breathe the mountain air every day, and enjoy walking through nature that is offered to them, just as you will. In summer time, you will cross paths with many of your countrymen, as it is a favourite of Brits. Its lush forests, lavender fields and local farmer’s markets are certainly all reasons that explain why it is so inviting and popular to UK citizens. 

The Mont Saint-Michel

Although it is not a region, we though we would end this article with this magnificent location. When you arrive at the bay of Mont Saint-Michel, you will immediately understand why it is considered the most beautiful in France. And as you walk the streets of the island, lying in the middle of it, you will be reminded of the reasons that explain why it made the UNESCO World Heritage List, thanks to its abbey.
