The unspoiled gem of the Rhine Valley

A spontaneous road trip to a gorgeous and peaceful place like Bacharach, Germany can do wonders to a controlling soul like mine.

No timetables, no rush, no stress.

Lots of green, birdsong, sunshine, local food and wine.

The valley towns are protected Unesco heritage, unspoiled and authentic. No restaurant chains, no ugly apartment blocks, no traffic, just the old houses, castles and medieval ruins.

Take a quiet break, wherever you are. You know you need it.
