It
is worth considering when planning your holiday this year
that coming to France may be less expensive than you think.
Apart from petrol being cheaper than the highs we have seen;
and the great offers available from ferry companies and airlines,
your meal in a restaurant will cost you less in euros. From
1 July last year the TVA (VAT) reduction from 19.6% to 5.5%
came into force.
For
the
uninitiated
and
budget
conscious,
look
out
for
signs
to
an
Auberge
(country
Inn)
they
often
offer
better
value,
a
superior
cuisine
and
a
friendlier
service
compared
to
that
fancy
restaurant
which
catches
your
eye.
Appearances
can
certainly
be
deceptive
when
choosing
where
to
eat
in
rural
France;
if
you
venture
through
the
rather
shabby
door
of
a
restaurant
in
a
small
town
you
may
be
pleasantly
surprised
at
the
warmth
of
the
welcome
and
the
high
quality
of
the
inexpensive
menus
on
offer.
What
is
more
you
certainly
will
not
leave
the
table
still
hungry,
the
portions
will
be
more
than
ample
with
the
greatest
challenge
being
how
to
still
have
room
for
pudding.
Before
you
decide
to
grab
lunch
in
a
fast
food
restaurant,
convenient
though
it
is,
compare
the
price
of
your
pizza
or
omelet
and
chips
with
the
menu
of
five
courses
(usually
with
a
carafe
of
wine
included)
in
that
small
restaurant
with
the
rather
unprepossessing
exterior.
LOG
FIRES, COUNTRY WALKS, GREAT FOOD! WHY NOT RELAX IN THE MAGICAL
DORDOGNE THIS SPRING.

The

(which
isn’t
really
a
TGV
??)
between
Lille
and
Brive-la-Gaillarde
came
into
service
9th
December
2007.
Notably
this
train
service
connects
to
Paris-Charles-de-Gaulle
airport
and
Eurostar
at
Lille
without
changing
stations.
What
bliss,
no

Believe
it
or
not
we
have
low
cost
public
transport
in
rural
France.
Here
in
the
Dordogne
a
terrific
trans-urban
bus
service
is
available
to
us.
Launched
in
September
2006,
TransPérigord
established
10
regular
bus
routes
traversing
the
Dordogne
at
a
fixed
fare
of
2
euros
a
journey.
The
fare
can
be
even
cheaper
than
that:
10
journeys
cost
14
euros
and
a
monthly
season
ticket
costs
40
euros.
During
the
year
2006-2007
this
service
was
used
by
60000
travelers.
This
bus
service,
used
together
with
a
complementary
service
known
as
TAD,
(transport
à
la
demande),
means
that
we
can
now
travel
from
our
doorsteps
(well
we
may
have
to
totter
down
the
path)
to
all
points
of
the
Dordogne.
With
advance
notice,
the
Commune
transport
service
will
transport
you
to,
and
collect
you
from,
the
nearest
connection
for
the
TransPérigord
service,
also
at
a
fixed
fare
of
2
euros.
If
you
fancy

National
holidays
in
France
Here
is the calendar showing 2010 national holidays (jours
fériés). These can often offer a long
week-end or what is called ‘un pont’;
a bridge to the weekend; i.e. Thursday 13 May will
be taken as a national holiday on Thursday and Friday
14 May as a bridge day of holiday to the weekend.
Worth noting that on jours fériés
(as on Sundays) you will have to order your own
wine since the usual complementary carafe of wine
offered in most restaurants will not be included
in the price of the meal.
