Provence
Just an hour from Nice airport is the Chateau de Berne, one of the few Cru Classe vineyards in Provence. But in addition to its fine wines, not to mention the excellent restaurant and comfortable accommodation, it's a great spot for a creative meeting.
We have some special offers for the Autumn (see the "vendange" and experience the autumn colours). Under £ 200 per night for full board and meeting facilities per delegate for a true 5* experience. We don't think that's bad!
Firm believers in the value of away meetings (no distractions and an environment conducive to creative thought), you won't be disappointed. For more details, call Tim on +44 (0) 1233 733 733 or email him at tim@vca-travel.com
Monaco
The Buddha Bar is Monte Carlo SBM’s new bar.
The bar is situated in the heart of the Cercle d’Or, and will appeal to lovers of Asian-style food and a musical lounge bar ambiance.
The Buddha Bar, which is situated in a former concert hall built at the beginning of the 20th century, is very characterful. Wonderful period woodwork was unexpectedly discovered during the renovation works, and has been restored. The Asian-inspired restaurant can serve 150 covers on the mezzanine, with up to 20 guests in the private salon. The lounge bar on the ground floor is the ideal place to make the most of summer evenings, sipping a cocktail with a sushi – all with the Buddha Bars’ own special ambiance, a subtle blend of lounge and world music.
For the inauguration of the Buddha Bar, a plaque was officially unveiled by HSH Prince Albert II and HRH the Princess of Hanover to name the Allée François Blanc, in homage to the founder of Monte Carlo.
The Buddha Bar is open from Tuesday to Sunday inclusive from 7 pm to 2 am
