This former unofficial capital of France sits just 10 miles from Paris and is easily reachable by train. Even though the Chateau de Versailles has been known as the epitome of indulgent luxury for centuries, seeing it in person is a jaw-dropping experience. The chateau's magnificent gardens are free, but it's worth shelling out for a day ticket to see the interior—although it does make going back to even a fancy hotel seem rather humdrum.

This is one of the rare attractions in Versailles that is free to visit, it is worth popping in to see the beautiful state coaches and they also have some original sleds used by Marie Antoinette, also carriages made for her children are on display.

Being a textile and quilt lover, this museum was an absolute joy. Truly beautiful fabrics and colours and incredibly interesting. Definitely worth a visit - would love to be able to return for their upcoming exhibition.
