The gîte is one France’s travel icons, drawing visitors for centuries. It’s as much a feeling as a type of place, with the simplicity of rural life at its heart. We visit every gîte in our collection, checking for the character and charm that give you a real experience of this French classic, but we also look for owners who will introduce you to the place they live and love. Follow their insider tips to watch fisherman on the carrelets of the Gironde estuary, wander lavender fields in the south and stumble across medieval villages in the hills, returning home to your cool stone gîte for a refreshing dip in the pool.
