Home Help: 12 April
France will always have romantic connotations for us more strait-laced Brits, whether it be the mouthwateringly rich food, the charming men presenting roses with a flourish, or the dazzlingly smart French design. But there’s no reason why we can’t...

From chateaux to chalets
Many of us dream of a house in France: the landscape, the food, the wine, the weather – and, of course, the fabulous homes themselves. From sumptuous chateaux, reflecting the magnificence of Versailles, to cosy ski lodges and historic bastides, bathed...

Corking chateaux
They are bywords for luxury, joie de vivre and the high life: Krug, Veuve Clicquot, Moët & Chandon, Château d’Yquem, Cheval Blanc and Ruinart. But far from just being labels on France’s ƒ nest wines and champagnes, they are also vast, historic estates,...

The governess who helped win the war
Dickens could hardly have penned a more austere childhood than the sombre beginnings of wartime veteran Vera Magee. And yet, in the course of a lifetime, this woman would rise to the very top of her profession, freely mixing with generals, presidents...

Tidings of good cheer
At White House dinners, Richard Nixon secretly sipped Château Margaux while serving cheap wine to guests. Though I wouldn’t condone such inhospitable behaviour, I can see his point. Why waste good stuff on those who won’t appreciate it and probably...
