Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

I know a few people that have had success with ownersdirect.co.uk. Covers the world rather than just France but may be worth a try.

BernardC, ones that I can recfommend based on our experience so far (in order best first):

holidaylettings.co.uk
holidayrentals.co.uk (not as good as above)
mediahols.com

All of these have brought in good volumes of enquiries. To echo what others have said before we see summer bookings as a bonus and do not count on them. Saying this we have had a few this year which has been great. Local adverts have worked particularly well with this in mind.

Hope this helps Very Happy

i am in mottaret right now cooking on the barbie but have to say summer bookings have been disastrous

our agent who has 30 plus properties has had 3 bookings this summer.

hoidays rentals have produced a fair amount of leads but no bookings.

my thinking is market directly to the french as they are the only ones out here...

 Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I've been told that abritel.fr is a good site to advertise on for French bookings but have yet to sign up. We have had bookings through mediahols (mediavacances is the french website) from people in France and enquiries from Dutch people too.

I would also have suggested Abritel and Media Vacances. The other one to try might be:

MrDan, marmalade, abritel have been acquired by the company who own holiday rentals.

skimottaret, yep, our summer bookings have been way lower than projected - and we are hearing the same from locals and agencies. We think the "bad" weather has sent the French and Italians south rather than up to the hills.

we got the same feedback in Les Saisies, a couple of weeks ago. We don't rent, but others who do have had few takers this summer and the area as a whole had had a very slow July. Well, it was snowing down to 2000m at the beginning of the month... Restaurant owners were looking a bit glum, and hoping for a more summery August. Aren't we all?

BernardC, I aasume you want a listing site rhather than an agent?
FWIW this summer, I have four weeks booked between now and end of August.
1 booking from Owners Direct.
1 returning guest (booked last summer via an Ebay ad)
1 from Internet Cottages (UK cottage rental site, but they also have ski apartments, I also get loads of hits to my own website via there, and they use the same booking calendar as I do, I got the listing free because of this)
1 from my website, booked using my online calendar.

BernardC, What's happening at your place through August/September? I'm looking for some secluded digs.
