We’ve just returned from a holiday in France. A highlight of our trip was a visit to the wonderful home of Jonathan and Anne James at Domaine Saint Hilaire situated between Montpellier and Beziers. This is a very special Chambre d’Hote on a Domaine producing some excellent wines. I thoroughly recommend a visit but do not go unless you can experience dinner prepared by Anne, who is a highly competent cook. We enjoyed two superb meals with an excellent selection of wines in a superb setting besides the pool.
