"Rural France Direct" is our programme to France which has been in operation since 1986 featuring farmhouses, cottages, converted barns and a variety of other styles of property all having in common the peaceful, unspoilt surroundings of the French countryside. Our locations stretch from the Channel Coast to Provence. Our holidays in France feature properties that are isolated retreats, some that are in picturesque villages and others close to beaches. In all cases we have made a point of avoiding the crowded tourist centres.

Value for your money . . . |
As the name suggests, in order to provide the best value for money our policy is to deal directly both with our customers and our suppliers: We deal directly with the French owners of the properties bypassing property agents and passing the savings on to our customers. We deal directly with our customers many of whom are now regular travellers with us. By dealing direct we do not have to build into our prices the commissions that would be necessary if we were selling our holidays through travel agents; again we pass on these savings to our customers.

Personal Service . . . |
 |
| We greatly value the increasing number of repeat travellers we welcome back to a Rural France Direct holiday each year. We are totally committed to providing a high level of personal service and carefully examine and take account of the comments we receive on the questionnaire we send to every returning traveller. We are not tied to particular ferry operators and can arrange your channel crossings with the route and timing that best suits your personal requirements. We can also arrange insurance and en-route accommodation or Motorail if required. We are always happy to cater for those who wish to explore more than one region of France during their holiday and we do not insist that all Summer bookings must be two week durations. |
