Verified accommodations

From this summer, in Rentalia you can see the time that takes a released house as well as a caution notice when the house takes a little time or we could not have verified the direction.
Nevertheless, we were lacking to warn you when an accommodation was placing more trust in us. To settle this, from now on in Rentalia you will be able to find accommodations "not verified" (with the same message of "Be cautious" as till now) and "verified" accommodations. Of the verified ones you will find 3 types:
- Verified by antiquity: the owner of this accommodation goes in Rentalia announcing some house more than 6 months, a time more than sufficient so that anyone of ours filters should detect a possible fraud and should reject this house.

It can be that you meet a house that takes a little time in Rentalia but it is verified because the owner takes a lot of time announcing other houses.
- Verified by direction: in this case we have verified that the owner has access to the accommodation that he announces. It can be that we have sent to him a letter (with a code that then the owner has had to say to us) or because we have sent one of our photographers to the house.

Christmas in family... and in a rural house

The Christmastime is a few days to spend them with our most related, nevertheless, often we are with that between mothers-in-law, brothers-in-law, companions... we remain without space at home to lodge so many people.

The reasons are clear:
- About the space we have already spoken to you. You can rent a rural house according to the number of messmates that you are going to have in the table. There will be need to ask the neighbor for chair chairs neither of doing the "table of the children" (to your adolescent nephews who have just given the tug it does not do grace to sit down there...). Here you have a list of free rural houses the whole Christmas and that admit more than 10 persons.

- He thinks about the intimacy that you will have to celebrate these holidays. If someone extracts a guitar and you throw yourselves to do a recital you will not have to worry about bothering to the neighbors. Or better still, you will not have to worry of that the neighbor says to you that you do not have future in the world of the music...
Here you have a list of free rural houses the whole Christmas and that are in an isolated environment.

- The possibilities that offer you the rural houses are almost infinite: someone accept pets (sure that the dog of your premium will be grateful for this option...), others incorporate jacuzzi, barbecue, chimney...
Anyway, that these dates can be "the same Christmas of every year" or "The best Christmas". In your hand it is :)
