In Nouvelle-Aquitaine, Driing brings together mountain holiday rentals offered directly by their owners, from the valleys of the Basque Country and the Béarn to the plateaux of the Corrèze. Every property is in a municipality classed as a mountain area, in green valleys rather than at high altitude. Prices range from gîtes at €50 per night to traditional Basque houses. For properties also listed on Airbnb or Booking.com, booking direct works out on average 23% cheaper for the same home: no platform commission is added to what you pay. Same home, better price.
