Teamedup Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 Gites de France have a section for these too and you are in fact a gite anyway in the proper sense of the french word. It means 'to put people up' and that is what you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Hoare<br>All the best<br>Ian<br>La Souvigne Corrèze<br>http:www.souvigne.com Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 Hi Sam,The words "Chambres d'Hotes" are generic, and therefore no one organisation can claim them as their own.However, in France there are two organisations which classify Chambres d'Hôtes. One is Gites de France under the trade name (being brought in) "Charmance", which they _have copywrited, and the other "Clévacances" who are growing (in this area at least) pretty fast. Of the two, GdF is by far the better established, and I'd argue, has the better reputation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
