This season’s most popular areas of France for holiday rental bookings have been announced by the holiday property website www.frenchconnections.co.uk. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE / PRURGENT
Five departments, or areas of France, have been announced as this year’s rising stars in the French holiday rental market according to the holiday property website http://www.frenchconnections.co.uk.
Research of visitor enquiries received at the site so far in 2008 shows that this years regional hotspots are all are in the sun-filled southern regions of Languedoc-Roussillon and Provence.
Top of the popularity stakes are the departments of Var and Aude, both established areas for property rental, but more dramatic increases in interest have been seen for the departments Gard, Vaucluse and Herault.
These popular areas - both coastal and inland – take in miles of vineyards, quaint towns and villages and the historic centres of Nimes, Avignon and Carcassonne, with their cosmopolitan outdoor lifestyle. They are close to scenic national parks like Luberon, the Camargue and the breathtaking Cevennes mountains and are well served by motorways, TGV trains and low-cost airline destinations.
January and February are traditionally the busiest months for French summer holiday rental bookings. Enquiries received so far this year at http://www.frenchconnections.co.uk, the leading online French property specialist, show a marked increase over 2007 throughout France. But the greatest leap has been seen in the top five departments.
“Properties popular with the self-catering market are typically in a quiet setting with access to restaurants, places of interest and activities such as swimming, cycling, canoeing and walking” explains Glynis Shaw, joint MD of French Connections. “In these departments there’s a wide variety, from farmhouses and vineyard domaines to rooftop apartments - and even houseboats.”
French Connections has the details of over 3500 self catering holiday homes, villas, gites, hotels, bed and breakfasts and even Chateaux on its website for holiday makers to view and contact. The site attracts over 150,000 visits per month from holidaymakers looking for their ideal French holiday property.
