On our road trip from Italy to Spain we were set on taking back road or secondary roads and staying in unique/interesting hotels/b&b's. We were looking for a quiet place to stay for the night and we found it! The Auberge La Plaine was on our route and looked great online. It is a beautifully restored farmhouse in the countryside. The very refreshing pool was a treat for my husband and the wonderful vegetation and what was left of the vegetable garden (this time of yr) was treat for me to see. The evening's meal, though large portions, we're very tasty. Aside from a derogatory comment about the American's (which didn't really offend me, being one...yet did make me wonder about his treatments of other less 'open minded' American) made by the proprietor, the stay was very pleasant. I passed the comment off as ignorance, as I believe he has not met many Americans. I thought the place was lovely and would visit it again. read more
