Bordeaux could prove a draw for caravan owners after it emerged the French city is benefiting from a rise in UK visitors.
According to Hotels.com, the area has enjoyed a 100 per cent year-on-year rise in interest from British holidaymakers.
The strength of the pound over the euro has helped many European destinations, but none more so than Bordeaux.
Bordeaux Tourism suggested that part of the region’s popularity was down to its fine gastronomic offerings.
Spokeswoman Apolline Belondrade suggested that the fine food and wines on offer are complemented by a number of popular golf courses and spas.
She added that oysters are a particularly tasty treat in Bordeaux.
“For the freshest ones in nice and simple surroundings, don’t hesitate to go to La Boite a Huitres, in the centre of Bordeaux,” Ms Belondrade said.
The spokeswoman pointed tourists in the directorn of Comptoir Bordelais, where they can pick up local foods and wines to take home.
She noted that it is a “true experience” for those who love their culinary delights while on holiday.
