Locating A Suitable Holiday Rental Home France

By Raymond Allen


Many travelers now opt to rent accommodation for their vacation rather than book a package tour or stay in guest houses and hotels. A large number of guests who elect to visit Europe will look for a holiday rental home france. Choosing this type of holiday enables guests to enjoy more freedom and privacy.

The price of renting a property in France depends on a few things such as location, facilities and the type of accommodation. Everything from a small studio for a single person up to a luxurious chateau sleeping twenty plus guests are available. After choosing a location and deciding how many bedrooms are needed it is worth taking some time to think about what activities are on offer.

If you are looking for an active or sporty holiday, a lot of homes are near to rivers, mountains, forests and golf courses. Renting a place in the south of France or in the major cities will usually be more costly than one in more remote villages. Some of the lettings are fully serviced with staff and have everything needed for a comfortable stay.

When working out costs it is advisable to look at as many places as possible with the type of property that suits. A small flat can cost as little as 40 dollars a night and two or three bedroom gites will be approximately a hundred dollars per nightly stay. If the vacation is to be spent in one of the major cities the prices will increase significantly.

At the top end of the market, a castle style property or very large villa can be rented for ten thousand dollars plus per night. These lettings are very sumptuous, boasting extras such as indoor heated pools, hot tubs and wine cellars. These properties are built to an extremely high standard and equipped with all mod cons.

When looking around for somewhere to spend a holiday, the internet is a good place to start with thousands of properties advertised. Most of these sites will feature photographs of the accommodation accompanied by reviews from past guests. Some of the private owners who offer rentals also provide a telephone contact number so the potential guest can discuss their needs and ask any questions not answered on the advert.

Having decided on a holiday rental it is advisable to contact the owners or managing agents and check what is included in the price. Water and electricity is often charged separately and this needs to be factored in to the final cost of the break and things such as telephones and WiFi are also billed according to use. It is also worth finding out details such as how far away are the supermarket and medical facilities in case they are needed.

The last thing to be thought about is holiday insurance and if it is part of the rental or to be sourced separately. Nearly all agents and owners will ask for a deposit in the event of any damage or breakages which is then returned when the guests are due to leave if everything is in order. Also as these are not package holidays, transfers to and from the points of arrival and departure may need to be arranged.
