Obtaining a star rating for your gîte will be more difficult from this year, but the tax break may well make it worthwhile.
As occurs in most other countries, France has in place a star rating system for most forms of tourist accommodation, whether hotels, resorts, camp sites or gîtes, although there is no classification system for chambres d'hôtes.
For tax and legal purposes, a gîte in France is called a meublé de tourisme.
