weight when it comes to large 4 00:00:42.920 --> 00:00:46.040 amounts of history. 5 00:00:50.840 --> 00:00:51.600 Don't be fooled 6 00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:55.720 by this quaint picture postcard town with its neat little houses, 7 00:00:55.720 --> 00:01:01.040 cobbled streets, cafes, and seemingly quiet and typically French existence 8 00:01:01.480 --> 00:01:05.960 four and was was once home to the French monarchs and honor that the Leonardo 9 00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:08.720 da Vinci, who also called him, was home 10 00:01:09.000 --> 00:01:11.320 and is now his final resting place. 11 00:01:12.840 --> 00:01:15.400 And Boyer's is no sleepy French village. 12 00:01:15.600 --> 00:01:19.920 Its list of former residents are handpicked from the who's who of history. 13 00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:23.800 It's a town you should visit on your wine tasting tour of Lucca. 14 00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:28.200 So when you're visiting a town full of Chateaux and rural residents 15 00:01:28.200 --> 00:01:32.520 says it's only fitting to reside in an equally luxurious hotel. 16 00:01:32.520 --> 00:01:34.080 So welcome to LA. 17 00:01:34.080 --> 00:01:37.400 Was all part of the small luxury hotel group 18 00:01:37.640 --> 00:01:42.200 and perfectly positioned at the foot of the royal chateau of Armoires. 19 00:01:42.680 --> 00:01:46.920 It was a private property, and two of these properties are 20 00:01:48.160 --> 00:01:52.120 possibly in a 1952 Macon Hotel. 21 00:01:52.920 --> 00:01:56.640 It's one of the best few along the river wall 22 00:01:57.120 --> 00:02:00.240 between Nerja and the not. 23 00:02:01.480 --> 00:02:02.880 The hotels restaurants. 24 00:02:02.880 --> 00:02:06.440 Lutron sees is the only fine dining restaurant in 25 00:02:06.440 --> 00:02:09.600 and was with panoramic views of the Lucca River. 26 00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:14.400 Outside in the hotel grounds, walkways aligned with lavender 27 00:02:14.400 --> 00:02:19.400 and roses, providing a relaxing, perfumed aroma in the gentle breeze. 28 00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:20.400 The swimming pools, 29 00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:24.240 flanked by ancient looking cherubs, keeping a watchful eye on events. 30 00:02:24.240 --> 00:02:26.960 And there's a fabulous alfresco dining area. 31 00:02:27.000 --> 00:02:30.280 Well, the perfect place to sample the region's famous wines. 32 00:02:30.520 --> 00:02:37.880 In the summer months, as you'd expect from a luxury hotel, 33 00:02:38.080 --> 00:02:41.280 the interior design is sophisticated and delicate. 34 00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:44.760 The furniture is a modern take on Louis the 15th pieces. 35 00:02:44.760 --> 00:02:48.560 And there's enough aged blends to remind you you're visiting one of France's 36 00:02:48.600 --> 00:02:52.560 most famous alcohol producing regions. 37 00:02:56.680 --> 00:02:57.640 There's 32 38 00:02:57.640 --> 00:03:01.520 rooms spread across the 16th and 18th century houses 39 00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:06.200 that make up the hotel, all with stylish, soft furnishings and views. 40 00:03:06.200 --> 00:03:09.640 Out across the Louver River, the Italian inspired grounds 41 00:03:09.640 --> 00:03:12.680 and Chateau Time was 42 00:03:12.680 --> 00:03:14.880 perhaps the most unique feature of LA 43 00:03:15.040 --> 00:03:20.440 was the hotel's private cave once used to store wheat and grain taxes. 44 00:03:20.600 --> 00:03:32.960 When the French kings resided in and was, there's three long parallel corridor 45 00:03:32.960 --> 00:03:37.440 type rooms and full spherical chambers split over several floors. 46 00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:40.800 There's also 129 stone stairs 47 00:03:40.800 --> 00:03:43.920 to climb. 48 00:03:43.920 --> 00:03:46.840 Each of the round chambers were built with double walls, 49 00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:50.160 rock covered with moteur and a second brick layer 50 00:03:50.160 --> 00:03:52.840 to protect the food from damp and humidity. 51 00:03:55.720 --> 00:03:58.920 After the French Revolution, the taxes were abolished. 52 00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:02.880 Today, the caves have been excavated for tourists to explore, 53 00:04:02.880 --> 00:04:07.320 and they're often used for wine tasting events. 54 00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:13.920 Of course, this 55 00:04:13.920 --> 00:04:17.360 is one of France's most famous wine producing regions. 56 00:04:17.880 --> 00:04:20.240 So once you've quench your thirst for history, 57 00:04:20.480 --> 00:04:22.560 it's time to visit one of the locals. 58 00:04:22.560 --> 00:04:25.640 Many vineyards. 59 00:04:29.240 --> 00:04:30.200 We produce 60 00:04:30.200 --> 00:04:34.680 a very large range of white wines from the dry 61 00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:40.600 the of dry, sweet and also sparkling wines with a shimmering grapefruit also. 62 00:04:40.600 --> 00:04:44.040 So it's a classic traditional fermentation 63 00:04:44.040 --> 00:04:47.960 and a mediterranean bar also in that. 64 00:04:48.680 --> 00:04:53.800 But we also use a what we call now the method, traditional method, 65 00:04:53.800 --> 00:04:57.120 which is in fact the same as a trumpet and metal chomping wise. 66 00:04:57.520 --> 00:05:00.200 We use for the for all the sparkling wine we produce here. 67 00:05:00.840 --> 00:05:06.160 It's a very old company founded in 1893 by a man called Ernest British, 68 00:05:06.760 --> 00:05:09.800 and the first founded that company 69 00:05:10.320 --> 00:05:13.520 to develop metal chomping was at the time 70 00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:15.120 it needed more 71 00:05:15.120 --> 00:05:19.080 space more people to to to make that new method 72 00:05:19.080 --> 00:05:22.200 which came from champagne in the 19th century. 73 00:05:22.800 --> 00:05:26.560 And after that it is Mark Retief who was his nephew, 74 00:05:27.440 --> 00:05:31.680 who takes the company after the first war and really develop it. 75 00:05:31.680 --> 00:05:35.400 And the and he left his name to it as a company. 76 00:05:35.880 --> 00:05:38.640 Now it belongs to the particular Musette, 77 00:05:38.640 --> 00:05:42.080 which is a famous producer of Preform in the Sunset. 78 00:05:42.240 --> 00:05:45.800 And they came in 1986 as a winemaker. 79 00:05:46.040 --> 00:05:50.480 The caves were dug into the 10th century as quarry, 80 00:05:51.840 --> 00:05:55.440 and that times the wine was not a bottle. 81 00:05:55.800 --> 00:05:57.800 It was a drink from the barrels. 82 00:05:58.080 --> 00:06:01.600 And we don't we don't need space to string it. 83 00:06:02.360 --> 00:06:06.320 So in the 16th century, they start to to use the cave as a cellar 84 00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:12.000 for making the wine and for bookings and wine and kept the battle with guns. 85 00:06:12.040 --> 00:06:15.400 He's a so the original press from the 16th century. 86 00:06:16.400 --> 00:06:17.120 Much of and 87 00:06:17.120 --> 00:06:21.240 was history is linked to Chateau Dam was the former home 88 00:06:21.240 --> 00:06:25.400 to the French royal family and arguably the most impressive chateau 89 00:06:25.440 --> 00:06:32.040 in the town. 90 00:06:32.040 --> 00:06:37.920 The Chateau Van was is a real one because it was built by the kings of France. 91 00:06:38.600 --> 00:06:41.240 They were here at the end of the Middle Ages 92 00:06:41.520 --> 00:06:44.400 for about 150 years 93 00:06:44.600 --> 00:06:47.400 until the end of the 16th century. 94 00:06:48.000 --> 00:06:51.880 And the most important king is the one built 95 00:06:52.320 --> 00:06:57.240 this Charles, the last king of the Middle Ages, 96 00:06:57.800 --> 00:07:00.280 17th and 18th centuries. 97 00:07:00.280 --> 00:07:04.800 The chateau was not a royal residence anymore because they were not here. 98 00:07:05.360 --> 00:07:10.200 But the chateau was used as a prison, state prison. 99 00:07:10.600 --> 00:07:13.280 And the prisoners were in the underground 100 00:07:18.960 --> 00:07:24.760 and and then the chateau was owned 101 00:07:24.760 --> 00:07:30.040 by the descendants of the Kings until 1974. 102 00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:33.120 Then it became a museum, of course. 103 00:07:33.120 --> 00:07:36.640 And that's why in the chateau we find different periods, 104 00:07:37.280 --> 00:07:39.880 end of the Middle Ages, Renaissance 105 00:07:39.880 --> 00:07:43.360 time and 19th century with Louis C 106 00:07:56.640 --> 00:07:58.640 the first time he came here from 107 00:07:58.680 --> 00:08:02.760 Soir of Angouleme was only four years old. 108 00:08:02.960 --> 00:08:04.800 He grew up here. 109 00:08:04.800 --> 00:08:07.320 So when he was king, he came back 110 00:08:07.320 --> 00:08:09.960 and he was here at the beginning of his reign. 111 00:08:09.960 --> 00:08:13.800 Then he decided to to make the war in Italy. 112 00:08:13.800 --> 00:08:17.960 He met Leonardo da Vinci and invited Leonardo da 113 00:08:17.960 --> 00:08:22.360 Vinci to come was because the king was here at this period. 114 00:08:22.480 --> 00:08:25.360 That's why Leonardo da Vinci came to him, was 115 00:08:25.720 --> 00:08:29.440 and spent his last three years not in the ship, too, 116 00:08:29.480 --> 00:08:33.720 doing another smaller one close to to this one. 117 00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:35.760 But he spent his last four years there. 118 00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:39.720 He died there, and he asked to be buried here. 119 00:08:40.640 --> 00:08:43.120 They put the tomb in the church at the chateau, 120 00:08:43.680 --> 00:08:47.000 but in the 19th century, the demolished the church. 121 00:08:47.480 --> 00:08:53.240 So they made excavations from the tomb and the tomb was transported to the chapel. 122 00:08:53.240 --> 00:08:57.200 That's why nowadays Leonardo da Vinci's tomb is in the chapel. 123 00:08:57.720 --> 00:09:00.360 This small but beautifully decorated chapel 124 00:09:00.360 --> 00:09:04.560 was built in 1493 for the sovereign's private use. 125 00:09:04.560 --> 00:09:08.280 It's now the final resting place of Leonardo da Vinci, 126 00:09:08.440 --> 00:09:11.400 the relationship between Da Vinci and King Francois. 127 00:09:11.400 --> 00:09:15.840 The first was so strong that a 500 meter long underground tunnel 128 00:09:16.120 --> 00:09:20.920 links the Royal Castle with closure to say, Leonardo's private residence 129 00:09:22.840 --> 00:09:24.560 as Aperitifs go and 130 00:09:24.560 --> 00:09:28.920 was has more than enough to stimulate the hungriest of historical appetites. 131 00:09:28.920 --> 00:09:32.760 A dinner less well sells chances is the perfect way 132 00:09:32.880 --> 00:09:41.840 to end the day. 133 00:09:41.840 --> 00:09:45.960 Head chef Michael Renna provides diners with a gastronomic feast, 134 00:09:45.960 --> 00:09:48.960 arranging plates with local seasonal produce. 135 00:09:49.680 --> 00:09:53.680 Michael likes to surprise guests with unconventional arrangements, 136 00:09:53.880 --> 00:10:09.000 the results of which are mouthwatering. 137 00:10:09.000 --> 00:10:12.760 Here you'll find dishes that respect the seasons and traditional French 138 00:10:12.760 --> 00:10:16.560 cuisine, and each plate has an individual flair about its 139 00:10:26.920 --> 00:10:29.160 you'll want to make sure there's room for pudding. 140 00:10:29.160 --> 00:10:34.800 And after all that food, a gentle stroll around the Italian inspired hotel grounds 141 00:10:35.040 --> 00:10:38.480 and of course, a final glass of wine at the end of the day. 142 00:10:38.720 --> 00:11:06.840 After all, this is the Loire Valley. 143 00:11:06.840 --> 00:11:09.280 The Caribbean is a holiday destination. 144 00:11:09.280 --> 00:11:12.920 Most people have dreamed of visiting at some point in their life 145 00:11:14.440 --> 00:11:17.200 with its beautiful beaches and tropical climate. 146 00:11:17.480 --> 00:11:21.320 The island of Grenada, known also as the spice Island, due 147 00:11:21.320 --> 00:11:25.240 to the production and export of nutmeg and maize crops, has long 148 00:11:25.240 --> 00:11:31.760 been a favorite retreat for holidaymakers looking for their own piece of paradise. 149 00:11:31.760 --> 00:11:34.800 It's an island that's remained relatively unspoilt. 150 00:11:34.840 --> 00:11:38.280 You won't see skyscraper hotels lining the waterfront, 151 00:11:38.520 --> 00:11:43.360 just traditional Caribbean villas sympathetically built into the landscape 152 00:11:43.640 --> 00:11:48.280 and long winding roads that lead high up into the mountains and rainforests. 153 00:11:49.120 --> 00:11:51.440 Grenada has long been a favorite destination 154 00:11:51.440 --> 00:11:55.200 with the sailing community, as the island's many bays and coves 155 00:11:55.400 --> 00:12:01.000 provide a sheltered natural harbor ideal for mooring up the capital. 156 00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:05.560 St George's boasts some of the best beaches in the island, where both locals 157 00:12:05.560 --> 00:12:10.680 and tourists flock to the two mile long stretch of grand and speech. 158 00:12:10.920 --> 00:12:13.720 But if you're looking for a slice of private paradise, 159 00:12:13.720 --> 00:12:17.760 the beach opposite Sugarloaf Island, or more affectionately known 160 00:12:17.760 --> 00:12:22.120 locally as Toblerone Island, is the perfect place to hide. 161 00:12:23.920 --> 00:12:24.880 Set in eight 162 00:12:24.880 --> 00:12:27.840 acres of private, lush, tropical gardens 163 00:12:28.080 --> 00:12:32.920 is the hotel calabash, with 30 suites arranged in a hall shape 164 00:12:32.920 --> 00:12:37.280 around the grounds, each with their own private balcony or patio. 165 00:12:38.360 --> 00:12:42.800 Owned and managed by the Garbutt family who bought it in 1987. 166 00:12:43.160 --> 00:12:46.680 It's now known as one of the best hotels in Grenada. 167 00:12:47.800 --> 00:12:49.680 Where a 30 bedroom hotel. 168 00:12:49.680 --> 00:12:51.760 And we've got quite a few unique features. 169 00:12:51.760 --> 00:12:55.160 One of them is that we're on a secluded beach, which is quite nice, too, 170 00:12:55.160 --> 00:13:13.880 relaxing in tranquility. 171 00:13:13.880 --> 00:13:17.360 We've got quite a large property for only 30 bedrooms, 172 00:13:17.360 --> 00:13:32.240 so people do come here for privacy and to really escape. 173 00:13:34.880 -->
