Question for Gite owners


audio

Recommended Posts

I have not used a gite before, so can you help me please?

 

Can a gite normally be rented for just 3 or 4 nights during October?

If so what is the approximate cost? (La Rochelle area)

We have a medium sized dog, are they normally accepted?

Thanks.

Hi Audio,

Let me begin by saying that our gite is not in the area in which you are interested & both owners & areas can differ!!

However, we welcome guests to our gite all year round, although business is substantially quieter outside the summer season and rates are lower.

Due to our changeover arrangements, our minimum rental duration, regardless of season, is one week. Whether or not guests choose to stay the full duration of time booked, at any time of year, is up to them. For example, some have early flights for which they prefer to travel to the airport the day before, some are going on to gites in other areas with an earlier arrival day and some spend a night away during their holiday perhaps with friends holidaying further afield or, as in one case, in the hotel where they honeymooned some years before. Some gite owners accept nightly lets, particularly off season so it might be worth asking wherever you're thinking of staying.

We choose not to accept pets but many gites do. Most usually say on their websites.

I hope this helps a little.

E.

A normal week runs saturday to saturday for me, but off-season I will rent out pretty much any period desired assuming that it doesnt interfere with another booking, and charge a pro-rata amount of the cost for a normal stay. You just need to ask. If a gite is empty for the month, then most owners would rather let out for a few days than miss the booking completely.

Pets are welcome too.

 

by the way, im not in the area you need!
