What’s the difference between a guest room and a cottage?

Understanding the difference

A guest room is a room in a guest’s home.
More or less luxurious, they may or may not have a private bathroom or shower room.
Ditto for the toilets.
If you’re renting a chambre d’hôtes on the Côte d’Azuryou’ll be sleeping in the owners’ home.
A house can have a maximum of 5 guest rooms.

On the other hand, if you choose to spend your vacation in a gîte in Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azuryou’ll be staying in a self-contained house or apartment that will make you feel right at home.
A gîte is a fully-equipped, furnished accommodation available to you.

Traditionally, bed and breakfasts are rented by the night and cottages by the week.
