Is there any kind of special offer from OD for us LMH users? we're considering giving them a shot this year (HL - lots of bookings, HR are performing miserably for us). Be more inclined to give it a go if there was an extra couple of months for lovely LMH-ers! (Not written here for a while, but been...

Nessie and Helen, We've got our inspection coming up next week so it's all a bit frantic here as we try to make sure we've got everything just so.

Thanks for the feedback Nessie, we visited another local gite who are with GDF and they seemed to be doing ok - but only for july and august, and also i think the gite rentals were a bit of a sideline for them anyway.
