Rental terms & conditions
The national tourist-rental registration number will be published here as soon as the French State teleservice opens to hosts, announced for late 2026. In case of discrepancy, the French version prevails.
1. Purpose
These terms govern the seasonal rental of the gîte (registered furnished tourist rental) “Maison Bayeux”, located in Loucelles (14250), France, offered by a sole trader (French LMNP status), SIRET 842 997 538 00033.
2. Capacity
The maximum capacity is 14 guests. The number of guests declared at booking must be respected. Any unauthorised excess may result in termination of the stay without refund.
3. Booking and payment
Booking is made by enquiry via the site, followed by availability confirmation and a quote from the host. The booking becomes firm upon receipt of payment via the secure payment link sent by the host.
No booking is concluded on this website: there is no instant booking and no online payment. The deposit amount, instalments and balance are set out in the rental contract provided with the quote, and accepted in writing before any payment.
4. Cancellation
Cancellation terms, for both guest and host, are set out in the rental contract. They are provided with the quote and accepted before signature, therefore before any financial commitment.
5. Security deposit
The security deposit amount, its payment and return terms and the applicable deadlines are set out in the rental contract provided with the quote.
6. Tourist tax
A tourist tax applies in addition to the rate, collected by the host on behalf of the local authority. The gîte falls under the French unclassified furnished rental scheme: 5.00% of the nightly rate per liable guest, plus applicable additional taxes. The exact amount appears on your quote.
7. House rules
Parties and celebrations welcome: the house has no immediate neighbours. After midnight, please keep the volume down out of respect for the village.
No cleaning fee is charged; in return, the house must be returned tidy and clean (dishes done, bins taken out).
Non-smoking indoors.
Pool and hot tub are unfenced, the pool open in June, July and August and the hot tub from May to September: supervision of children is the exclusive responsibility of guests.
The number of guests declared at booking must be respected.
Pets: by prior agreement only, with a supplement stated in the quote.
No downloading or sharing of illegal content via the Wifi; no commercial activity without prior authorisation.
8. Check-in and check-out

The exact address and access instructions are shared after booking confirmation.
9. Liability and insurance
Guests must hold holiday-rental liability cover (French « assurance villégiature », usually included in home insurance) for the whole stay. An insurance certificate is required and must be sent to the host before check-in.
Holiday rental insurance is required, and proof of cover may be requested before arrival. Guests are liable for any damage caused to the property and its equipment during the stay. The pool and hot tub are unfenced: supervising children is the guests’ exclusive responsibility.
