Provence > Provence Kiosk > Nature and Environment > Tourism > Bed and breakfast in Provence
It was a time when the choice of holiday resorts was very limited : at Aunt Monique's home (or grandfather etc. …), Except if you make kilometres to sleep in a hotel in the closest city.
Two solutions remain nice but it is very comfortable to have a widened range of accommodations !
Two big currents appeared and considerably evolved these last years : vacation rentals (always from a week minimum) and bed and breakfast.
In both cases, the choice extended and really answers to all demands.
But exactly, in front of the important number of propositions, in particular on the net - new and irreversible average of contact and information - how to choose the place and the formula the most suited to ones desires and necessities ?
Know how to optimize your choice for your holidays. Small historic bed and breakfast. One said, in the time, " at the inhabitant "… Spirit is a little the same but possibilities formidably increased. Doubtless the influence of the Anglo-Saxon countries is there for something.
In England B&B are a part of the culture. It is as normal for a small owner of apartment as for a gentleman farmer or a feudal lord. Except the royal family, and still, we have no precise information on this subject, no Englishman would be shocked to receive paying hosts in his house.
Here, evolution is slow. Idea was at first launched by the state to help farmers by an additional income while allowing the little fortunate families to have access to healthy holidays. Twenty years ago, France was not ready to receive in its intimacy !
Little by little, the envy for meetings just as much as the perspective of a small profit seduced the owners of houses in the campaign. A stronger tourist craze aroused greater necessities of accommodation. Offer and demand were there.
