Travel Books

Louise has co-authored numerous travel books on France for US travel publisher Frommer’s. During her research, she has trekked across Southern France with her new-born baby in a sling ready for the launch of the ‘With Your Family’ travel guide series, slept in the courtly home of Troubadour poets in the Ardèche, time-travelled back to the Middle Ages in Lyon’s traboules (corridors), water-rambled down the emerald-green Verdon Gorges, savoured Tahitian Grand Cru vanilla with France’s only three-Michelin-starred female chef in Valence, spat out Louis Jadot wines from the barrel across 100 Côte d’Or appellations in Beaune, fallen in love with Sleeping-Beauty wine châteaux in Beaujolais and cycled to discover horse-drawn ploughs tilling vineyards in the Northern Rhône. She illustrates her books with photographs taken along her travels. Louise has also worked with Bradt Travel Guides on the British Guild of Travel Writers' 65th Anniversary edition (Around the World in 65 Years) and with Penguin Random House for The Good Pub Guide reviewing pubs around the English countryside where she grew up.
