Special Places to Stay Europe With Courses and Activities

We've chosen over 250 special places to stay in Europe that offer courses and activities, either on the spot or nearby. All of them are close to interesting and beautiful places to visit and all have owners who are passionate about their area and eager for you to discover its treasures. The owners of these places will be your friends, your agents, your advisers the key to the success of your holiday. We look for comfort, originality, authenticity: posadas, castles, manses, cottages, haciendas, even slick city hideaways; food that is grown with respect and served with pride that will surprise and delight you; and owners who are willing to go the extra mile. There are courses from mainstream cookery, wine-tasting, horse-riding and painting to the less predictable submarinisimo and balneotherapy; our owners have come up with a tantalizing range of sporty, spiritual and creative things to do.Sawday, Alastair is the author of 'Special Places to Stay Europe With Courses and Activities', published 2004 under ISBN 9780762729647 and ISBN 0762729643.
