South West France
Selected because this site is a 5-minute drive from the delightful medieval town of St Emilion and because it is the perfect site for keen anglers, wine connoisseurs and nature lovers. Previously called Domaine de la Barbanne, it has now been renamed Yelloh! St Emilion and offers more organised entertainment particularly in the evening. It is set in the heart of the vineyards on the edge of a picturesque fishing lake. The site is laid out with pretty plants, shrubs and trees. An attractive pool complex is ideal for the children and a welcome dip after a busy day wine-tasting or sight-seeing. Clef Verte
