Please let us know of any period accommodation you believe we should include in this section - these can be boutique hotels, French inns, chateaux or top quality bed & breakfasts. We believe there are many more historic places to stay in Nord-pas-de-Calais and Picardie and would be particularly interested to learn of great heritage hotels in any of their towns, cities or villages. All property should have retained its historical charm and can date anywhere between the 10th and mid 19th centuries. They should, however, dispense excellent hospitality in all cases. Thank you for visiting the site - we hope you find it a useful resource. |
