What is Local Tourism Tax?

For all holiday bookings, we are obliged to collect a local Tourism Tax (la taxe de séjour) which is then paid to the local council. The total amount payable is based on the number of adults (any guest aged 18 and over) and the number of nights’ stay. Certain exemptions apply, so please contact us if you are in one of the exempt categories.

Any guests aged 18 and over are required to pay Taxe de Sejour of 75 cents per adult, per night. This amount is not included in the gîte rental amounts and must be paid in cash at the end of your stay.
