The best thing about SeaFrance Ferries Dover Calais is the ability to enjoy a French holiday. If you do decide you want to go to France, and have not sorted out accommodation you might want to consider a French Gite.

The decision to stay in a gite may well turn out to be the most important decision you make since a great gite will give you memories that will last a lifetime.
Not all gites throughout France are the same, most gites are registered with the government, and therefore must meet certain minimum standards in terms of what is being offered to travellers.

Gites de France is one organization that is very popular with gites that right across the nation. All organisations have standard rules that are very clear, and require signatures of both the owner and the renter on the contract. Much of the information can be perused online.

Before deciding on a gite, you should first be aware of a number of different details, such as arrival and departure times, cancellation policy and deposits required which are in most cases set by the owner and usually roughly 25%.

You must leave the gite as you found it, which means either cleaning it yourself, or paying a fee. You can save cash by doing it yourself, but you must remember that are expected to give it back in the same state as you received it.

If the gite has a fireplace, there are charges for firewood or gas, as well as a charge for baby cots or any other incidental. The general rule is you pay for anything that the owner says it not included as part of the booking cost.

There is also a security deposit that will be due and usually is 25% of the estimated rate. There will be charges for wood for fires as well as gas, a baby cot and others. The rule is you pay from everything that the owner says is not part of the booking cost.
