Bed & Breakfast / Chambre d'Hôte and Self Catering Accommodation

Stay in a family home in France or try self catering

Private Accommodation often lets you enjoy the true flavour of the region in which you are staying. Chambre d'hôte or "Chambres chez l'habitant" (B & B's) - this normally means guest houses with fewer than 6 bedrooms, most operating under the Gites de France label. Where the establishments are specifically listed as "Chambre d'Hôtes" we have listed them separately.
