The pretty medieval village of Yvoire lies on the shores of tranquil Lake Geneva, in Haute-Savoie. Often voted as one of the most beautiful villages in France, this little community of less than 1,000 people is a wonderful destination for a relaxing holiday. Intimate and characterful, our list of the best places to stay in Yvoire are brilliant for couples, friends and families looking to explore a special corner France.
Stroll along the cobbled pedestrianised streets of the old town, past medieval townhouses studded with blooming flowers and picture-perfect boutiques, galleries, cafés and restaurants. The lakeside Château d’Yvoire is a striking 14th-century landmark and well worth visiting, as is the domed Church of St. Pancras. Delve into local history at La Maison d’Histoire, marvel at the medieval gates and ramparts which surround the town, and admire the rose-scented Garden of the Five Senses.
Water sports on the lake are great fun, as are relaxing cruises and day trips to Évian-les-Bains or across the border into Switzerland. Return to one of the best places to stay in Yvoire to savour delicious regional fare in a superb setting.
