Off season holiday let in Aude
As a new member would first like to say Hi!
We have sold our house in the UK and are planning our permanent move to France, aiming to be in a rental home by September.
Our chosen location is in the Languedoc, close to Limoux, and we will be looking initially for an off-season holiday let or failing that an unfurnished property for aprox. 6 months, to enable us to find a permanent home at leisure, rather than trying to find something from the UK.
I realise that the forum rules disallow specific offers for property etc, but can anyone advise me of any websites, agents or other sources of rentals that may exist that you have used to find a rental property? I am planning to fly over towards the end of this month to look at prospective places.
Obviously we are open to offers, and if you do have something you may consider suitable, please send a private mail & I will get back to you asap

There are loads of english speaking immobiliers in that area- just google search agents immobiliers and just about everyone will have at least one anglophone in the office. If you can speak at least a bit of french then Leboncoin.fr is a very good place to start looking and you may be able to avoid agency fees if you go direct to the owner.

Hi, have you considered renting a gîte? They are always furnished....

That's what we are looking for - I am hoping to fly down in a couple of weeks to look at a few, so hopefully we will have a better idea then - just need to make sure they are centrally heated - I know how cold it can get.

Try French property.com
I'm in the same situation. I hope to be in Languedoc Roussillon by November for winter. I was going to buy a fixer upper straight away but we've decided to be wise and rent for 6 months first. We are basically trying to spend 6 months in Fiji - where we have a house - and 6 months in France over winter and spring.
I'd love to hear how you get on. We need a place which is unfurnished and we can bring our 3 cats over from Oz. I'm also hoping I can pay a small fee to someone to feed the fluffy ones when we're away and I can't get friends from England to stay.
