Searching For A Holiday Rental Home France

By Raymond Allen


These days rather than stay in hotels or guest houses many people choose to rent a property for their vacation. If you are planning to visit Europe a holiday rental home france is a great way to spend a well deserved break. This way of living is much more flexible than a hotel stay where guests are tied to specific meal times and activities.

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 final thing to check is insurance and whether it is included in with the price or to be arranged beforehand. Some letters will ask for a damage deposit which is refundable at the end of the stay following an inspection. Transfers to and from the point of arrival also need to be arranged if they are not included in the price of the rental.
