The STYLMATE, DELICIOUS SUMMER | Issue No. 03/2015THE Stylemate
Current edition: DELICIOUS SUMMER | Issue No. 03/2015
Let the summer begin!
Since Renaissance times, it has been drawing privileged urbanites to the countryside, coast or into the mountains. There is an elegant word for this in French – villégiature. It means a time of leisure, relaxation and escape from stuffy everyday life. The German term „Sommerfrische“ (summer retreat) expresses a desire to take a breather particularly beautifully.
What used to be reserved for nobility, is now possible for many people in our world. Thanks to wonderful hotels in the most stunning spots from the High North to the Mediterranean south.
Enjoy a delightful summer and start your „villégiature“ with this summer issue of Stylemate, which takes you from the North Sea to the Algarve and from the Balearics to East Tyrol.
Have a great trip!

Mont Saint-Michel was once again opened to the public -
having served its time as a prison since the French
Revolution in 1789Revolution in 1789.
A year later she married Victor Poulard, whose father was
Mont Saint-Michel’s baker. Throughout her long career,
Victor remained faithfully at her side, sharing her twoVictor remained faithfully at her side, sharing her two
main passions: cooking and Mont Saint-Michel.
Mont Saint-Michel has been reputed for its hospitality since the Middle-Ages and its
people - the ‘Montois’ - were used to catering for the pilgrims that flocked to ‘the
d f th t’wonder of the west’.
It is therefore no surprise that Annette Poulard and her husband Victor chose to open
their auberge in the heart of the medieval city back in 1888 – offering a warm
welcome to pilgrims and food lovers from around the world
