| General information |
| Equipment |
| Gîtes are furnished and equipped according to their ?épi' standard. You just need to bring bed linen, towels and household linen. Some owners are happy to hire bed linen, etc. |

| Inventory/state of repair statement |
An inventory/state of repair statement is drawn up & signed by the tenant & the owner (or his representative). It constitutes the only reference if a dispute arises concerning the inventory/state of repair statement. Tenants are responsible for cleaning the gîte. N.B. if you do not wish to do the cleaning, some owners offer a fixed fee for cleaning (see individual gîte descriptions). |
