Prices :We set our prices in euros, based upon comparable euro prices charged by local hotels & self catering accommodation of comparable standards. However, we welcome payments in either euros or pounds sterling (see below). To assist UK guests, given the current low value of the pound, we have held the pound sterling exchange rate we use at 2008 levels (approx 1.2 /£). Wherever you are from, you can choose which currency you prefer to pay in ! So if you're from the UK you'll know exactly what the cost is when you book ! If you book with a hotel then you'll pay in euros and (due to exchange rate variations) you won't know the pound sterling equivalent until the day you book out !
Please note that there are no "hidden extras" with our prices. They even include your Taxe de Sejour (Tourist Tax) that all hotels in La Rochelle (and many self catering properties) charge extra for - and you often don't find out until you check out ! See below for the full list of potential "extras" that are all included in our prices - all of which could otherwise add up to an extra 95 euros per week for a couple (165 euros if you have a car !)

And if you book during the festive months of December or January, we will donate 5% to charity, regardless of when the booking is for. Over recent years £2,400 has been donated to either Amnesty International, Mιdecins Sans Frontiθres or the Tsunami disaster appeal.
