Frequently asked questions about unique stays in France

  • What are some hidden gems to explore in France?

    For hidden gems, consider the charming village of Saint-Cirq-Lapopie in the Lot Valley, a medieval village clinging to a cliffside. Or explore the Camargue region in the south, with its wild horses and unique landscape. The Gorges du Verdon, often called the 'Grand Canyon of Europe', offer stunning natural beauty, perfect for hiking and water sports. For something different, visit the Rocamadour, a stunning cliffside village and pilgrimage site.
  • Which airport should you arrive at in France?

    It depends on your destination within France. Charles de Gaulle (CDG) in Paris is the largest and best connected, ideal for Paris and onward travel. For southern France, Nice Côte d'Azur Airport (NCE) is a major hub. Smaller airports like Bordeaux–Mérignac Airport (BOD) or Lyon–Saint-Exupéry Airport (LYS) might be more convenient depending on your final destination, offering shorter transfer times.
  • What is generally accepted for payment in France, cash or card?

    Card payments are widely accepted throughout France, even in smaller establishments. However, it's always a good idea to carry some cash, particularly for smaller purchases or in very rural areas where card readers might be less common. Euros are the currency.
  • How would you describe the safety of road conditions and driving habits in France?

    Generally, road conditions in France are good, especially on the major motorways (autoroutes). However, driving in cities can be challenging, with narrow streets and roundabouts. Drivers in France tend to be assertive, so be prepared for a more dynamic driving style than you might be used to. Always be aware of your surroundings and drive carefully.
  • What steps should you take if your passport goes missing in France?

    Report the loss immediately to the nearest police station (commissariat de police) and obtain a police report. You'll then need to contact the British embassy or consulate in France to begin the process of getting an emergency travel document. Keep copies of your passport details and other important documents separately from your original passport.
  • Where in France should you spend a week to experience the best of the country?

    A week in France could be spent exploring the diverse regions. A possible itinerary could involve a few days in Paris, followed by a high-speed train to Provence to explore the lavender fields and charming towns like Avignon and Gordes. This gives a taste of both city and countryside life.
  • Where in France can you have the best weekend experience?

    For a weekend getaway, consider a trip to Lyon, known for its gastronomy and history. Alternatively, a weekend in the Loire Valley allows you to visit stunning chateaux like Chambord and Chenonceau. Colmar in Alsace offers a charming, fairytale-like experience with its half-timbered houses.
  • What festivals in France are highly recommended for visitors?

    The Festival d'Avignon, a renowned theatre festival, takes place in July. The Fête de la Musique, a nationwide celebration of music, is held annually on 21 June. The Cannes Film Festival is a world-famous event in May. These are just a few examples; many other regional festivals offer unique cultural experiences.
  • Does France have Uber or comparable ride-hailing services?

    Yes, Uber and other ride-hailing apps like Bolt operate in many French cities. However, availability can vary depending on location and time of day. Public transport is also an excellent option in most urban areas.
  • What’s the top spot in France for favourable weather conditions?

    The French Riviera, particularly around Nice and Cannes, enjoys a Mediterranean climate with warm, sunny weather for much of the year. However, it's important to note that weather can be unpredictable anywhere, so it's always a good idea to check the forecast before you travel.
