Wondering why bacon and eggs in France? Hi Jon, after looking at the other B&B's in the area, it seems sensible to go with a similar offering to theirs. We dont want to lose custom because we are not offering it, when it is something so simple to do. If we find it unpopular then we can always remove it in the near future. Thanks to everyone for their input so far, I am looking at making the adjustments this afternoon. J.    Report

Maybe it would be better for those looking for a French version if the Word document (explaining that the French version is under construction) were a web page French?

Breakfast - I bet if others are offering full English they're charging a lot more than you.  It's very expensive to produce well and on your prices you don't have much room for manouevre. Which brings me to prices - WAY TOO CHEAP!  You should be charging at least 50 euros all year for a double and at least 80 for a family room.  I can only presume this is a sideline and you have another income.  B&B is very hard work and you are not going to be reaping many rewards with your prices and offering cooked breakfasts. Otherwise, the website itself looks great!    Report
