About French Gites and cottages

The only real difference between gites in France and cottages in France is that gites are French owned with the owner often living nearby, while cottages mostly belong to UK residents and may have décor and fittings that reflect this. Gite owners are required to sign the official 'Gites de France' charter, and to maintain the high standards that it demands.

Superb choice and locations

Many gites and cottages are farmhouses or converted barns - others may be a chalet, apartment, or hunting lodge. Settings can vary from peaceful countryside to lively towns and small villages, or close to the coast.

All self-catering gites and cottages are fully equipped, self-contained, and inspected by us to ensure that they meet our high standards. Set in many locations all over France, they sleep from as few as two people, to as many as twenty or more.
