What Is the Route du Bonheur?
In 1954, five unique small properties in France banded together to create a touring route from Paris to Nice called the “Route du Bonheur.” As guests experienced the quality and service these properties offered, the Relais & Chateaux association began to grow.
Today, Relais & Châteaux is a collection of over 500 of the finest hotels and restaurants in 60 countries – including The Fearrington House.
