French Vacation residences Get Rescue Package.

Vacation home developments, known as dwellings de tourisme have spawned during the last 20 years, with a few hundred thousand bed-spaces having been made since the mid 1980s. There are around 1500 such developments in France, containing 120,000 flats, and half a million bed-spaces. The developments are actually a compound between a hotel and a furnished loft - effectively serviced flats for vacation use. These inducements are referred to as Peacute,rissol, Besson and Demessine, after the Ministers who introduced the schemes. When these tax sweeteners are joined with an assured rent and transfer of management responsibility to an operator, it has appeared an impossible to resist offer. One star indicates a good cafe in its class, 2 stars suggest a cafe with glorious cooking, worth a detour, and 3 stars signal a trattoria with phenomenal cuisine, worth a special journey.
