Information about Gites de France in France - day-tripper.net the web magazine for visitors to France.
Gîtes de France are normally character houses restored and furnished in traditional style. The standard of comfort is set out in the national charter of the Gîtes de France organisation. The number of "épi" (ears of corn) indicate the degree of comfort and standard of equipment found in the gîte.
There are various types of Gites de France. The categories are;
Gîtes rural - A house or structurally separate building in the countryside.
Chambre d'hôtes (Bed and breakfast) - Be welcomed as friends of the houseowner, sample local cuisine.
Gites de séjour - Lodging designed to accommodate families or groups of friends
Gites d'enfants - For Children. During the school holidays, your children are accomodated within a family approved "Lodgings of France" and controlled by the qualified administration. They will share with other children (11 maximum) the life in the countryside and will benefit from leisures to the large air.
Ferme-auberge - Stay on a working farm and discover local cooking.
Camping à la ferme - Campsite on a farm.
Habitat léger de loisirs - Bungalows, chalets and mobil-homes.
Logis de France and Auberge de Ferme are family run establishments which offer traditional French accommodation and food at reasonable prices. If you want real French ambience you will be well served staying in any of the many Logis de France dotted about the French countryside, of which there are about 3,600. All are classified with one to three fireplace symbols, indicating the level of comfort. There are 36 Logis in Pas de Calais, and 22 in NORD.
