Just been to our first market today in Beaune. It's even better than described in the book. Off to Avignon tomorrow, looking forward to that.

I thought I would add this here rather than starting a new thread. Mrs Breath is Medway Towns born & bred. As a consequence, she loves a root around a market or three (as do I, so long as there is some decent food on offer).

Although this seems to be geared more towards the smaller foodie markets in Brittany, I'm sure other areas will have a similar online listing.

You can’t beat a good rummage round a Vide Grenier , last one we called into in the Loire had a very eclectic selection of retro items , step up from our normal car boot sales

Yes love vide greniers. Always see lovely bits of furniture tables chests of drawers etc & then realise I don’t have space in the car to take them home.
