I just booked a house in France for me and some of my family for May of next year . An old stable house with a beutiful courtyard . 6 bedrooms , 3 bathrooms and a very private , nice sized swimming pool . The house is 18th century and very near to an award winning wine chateau in the Languedoc Rousillon region of France . The village is near Narbonne and only 30km from Carcasonne ( a must see place for me !! ) .
Whilst bragging about that , I wanted to draw board members attention to the site we booked through and that we´ve used so successfully in the past .
www.ownersdirect.co.uk . As the name suggests you do all your talking to the owners . I spoke to 2 owners in the UK and finally we decided , via e-mail , on this property owned by a guy in Arizona .
It´s a very easy , direct service where you can ask all the questions you need . And many big properties if you´re planning on a family holiday .
P.s. Much as I would love say I was , I am in no way affiliated to that company !
