Looks increasingly likely our 4th holiday of 2020 is about to be cancelled. I need a back up plan and I’m thinking France via EuroTunnel.

Fairly flexible on the area, but I am out of the loop on the best booking sites to use that specialise in all things French

Thanks in advance

Air B&B.... The place might be owned by English (or any nation on earth really) but it'll still be in France.

Post two, has the answer though. A very good operation, easy to deal with etc etc
 
Seen some beautiful properties on the various gite web sites, but they are in demand.
I had booked a family holiday in Majorca which was subsequently cancelled by TUI having been booked a year previously, Covid being the reason. So looking ahead we’ve been searching gite sites Southern Brittany , out of 10 only one was prepared to accept our booking, openly stating they preferred french guests when I phoned them. Most are also honouring bookings cancelled this year and transferring to 2021.

We are looking at w/c 24/08/20 if we can’t go on original holiday. That said France could we on the quarantine list soon so who knows. This is the 4th holiday that’s gone to sh1t this year!

I friend who I've known for over 40 years has a barn conversion next to his holiday home in Espinasse near Le Puy en Velay.

I believe he and his wife are there at the moment. If you're interested I can ask him if it's available from that date.
 
Thanks all

Sorry those dates are already booked.

Have you tried Maison Laudiere?

Also listed in the accommodation section on the forum.
 
Well it seems the plan to go to France is now doomed as well. Gutted.
 
Spent today cancelling our bookings for planned trip from Sat 22nd. cncelling hotels was easy enough. Amending the Eurotunnel crossing has, so far, been unachievable. Consoling myself that if the worst outcome for us is no holiday this year, we'll have done a lot better than some. Furlough, redundancy, illness or worse... A week or two at home is bearable.

For future reference, though, try the Logis de France website: www.logishotels.com/en
