Bonny Lass Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 We are coming to house-hunt in a couple of weeks time and would like to rent somewhere from about 5/6 May for three weeks, for 2 adults, preferably with not too much driving to Saint Germain les Belles, St Leonard de Noblat, St Dizier Leyrenne. We are on a very limited budget and our top price would be maximum 300 euros for 3 weeks (total cost). Can anyone help? Is your gite unoccupied for even one or two weeks?All offers considered and replied to! Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cendrillon Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 http://www.laymyhat.com/forum300 euros for 3 weeks is a very low rate but you could ask on the above forum and see whether anyone there can help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quillan Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Funny, I was thinking the same and May is already looking quite good for bookings. I wonder if they really meant 300 Euros per week for three weeks, if so they may be lucky but even then there is not much around at that price. The other thought was if they did mean 300 Euros for three weeks because they are on a tight budget how will they afford to live in France.

Cendrillon Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 I have just looked on Owners Direct France and there are some small places in the Limousin that look quite cheap, worth a try perhaps.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pommier Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 There are some cheap holiday lets on Leboncoin - don't know if any are in the part of the Limousin you want.http://www.leboncoin.fr/locations_de_vacances/offres/limousin/?f=a&th=1&pe=1&cs=2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonny Lass Posted April 16, 2011 Author Share Posted April 16, 2011 Thanks for all replies so far. I had started looking at private owners' sites and have found a couple of places within our price range. Gites de France and Cle Vacances have offers and promotions also at the moment.I am aware that the price I said we'd like to pay is low, but we are also renting here, and want to keep as much of our income as possible for our move to France. We do not have any illusions about the cost of living in France!Thanks once again - any further suggestions still welcome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
