Agency Booking
A number of Agencies also handle Bookings for this Gîte. This website is always the most up to date and the booking calendar is controlled via this site.
Beware, Agencies often charge considerably higher than the owner rate so check first on the Rates page.
Below is a list of the Agencies with their Pros and Cons
No Fees, Same cost as per this website. Availability linked to master Calendar so always up to date. They offer payment Protection as well.
Reference GINE102, Credit Cards, easy booking but no direct contact with Owner supplied. They have no direct link on their website to the main Booking Calendar so check availability on this site first.
It works, but they can charge a lot more than the Direct Booking Rate.
Taxe de Séjour (Stay Tax)
The French council encompassing Ginestas (Grand Narbonne ) has applied a Fixed ‘Stay Tax’ of €0.88 per night per person. We will ask for this Tax to be paid before you depart unless your Agency has already deducted this. It only applies if you are resident so if you have a night away it will not apply. This is further complicated by some booking agencies charging 5.5% which is totally incorrect. If you are charged this then please contact your agency and demand the correct rate is applied. (Experience though in 2019 indicates they will ignore you) If necessary I can supply official detail of the rate that should be applied. Registration Number is GNA1259HTQ
