Did you know that you can do or learn almost anything on holiday in France? Whether you yearn for thrills and spills, a retreat from the world, new skills and hobbies, theme parks and family fun or a spot of gourmet indulgence, it seems that the vast choice of French activity holidays can offer something for just about all ages and tastes.

For sporty types, there's mountain biking in the rugged Pyrenees, horse riding in beautiful Languedoc Roussillon or lawn bowls in The Dordogne. Here you'll find the only full-size bowling green in France, shared with the local bowls club. If you want to learn or practice archery, then independent travel specialist French Connections lists an elegant chateau in the glamorous Loire valley that offers both archery and archery hunting. They also list properties with private tennis courts or fully equipped gyms and the majority have private pools.

Anyone who needs to de-stress from a busy lifestyle can nourish body and spirit at a yoga retreat amidst peaceful Breton meadows and woodland or learn tai chi in a sunkissed southern hilltop village. Massage, beauty treatments, aqua detox ...
... and even lifestyle makeovers with advice on diet and exercise all take a holistic approach to your holiday in France.

We all feel good for releasing our creativity and on holidays in France you can take a course in pottery, ceramics, literature, drama, woodturning, photography or painting. It's a great opportunity to exchange ideas and the people, places, buildings and markets of France will never leave you short of inspiring subjects. Prefer to learn the language? An immersion course can help you speak French like a native and a spot of shopping therapy becomes the chance to perfect your accent!

Food and wine fans are fed with specialist holidays in gourmet dining, French cooking and tours of vineyards in the country's great wine regions. Tasting is included, of course.
