The hotel receptionist (who we later found was the owner) asked us why we had come to Angers. We explained that it was a convenient location for day-trips, and that we liked the city,  She explained that over the last ??5  years, it had become number one for local tourists (at least, I think that was the story) and was also number one in France for a place to live - for lifestyle,  And I can believe that.  It is close to Paris, good transport - when there are no strikes - and it is quite a relaxed place.  So there you go - hidden gem - with an amazing tapestry to boot.
Some random pics from this morning.
The Town Hall - only one tricolour/flag on this one - Bit skimpy!
Maison d'Adam, built near the end of the fifteenth century. Now is a shop selling all sorts of local creations.
And the French have DA's too!
