Which part of it do you require translation of ... a lot of it is fairly straightforward to work out (even with my schoolboy French).

vous pouvez aussi louer une voiture pour 8, euros par jour chez Leclerc (magasin alimentaire) - you can also rent a car for 8 euros per day.

Thanks Ian,

I think he also said that I can't access the terrace hose until after 17:00 hours? maybe he offers a solution?
thanks-in-advance
Paul

I think it says you can come back before 5:00 pm, but perhaps wait for a proper French speaker!

It says that you can come back before 5pm....you only need to tell them what time.

No problems for Internet...good reception.No problems for tv.....they have satellite tv,250 channels,BBC World etc.

12 minutes on foot to the centre.15 minutes to the station.He will meet you at the station if you come by train.You can rent a car for 8 euros a day (that's very cheap!?)at the Leclerc food store.

See you soon,maybe. ;-)

I confirm the translation, that's it !!

Regarding car rental, 8 euros is very cheap, Leclerc is not a dedicated car rental place, it is a supermarket. So I would advise you don't build your budget on that as cars might not be available from them when you get there.

Have a nice stay in BEaune, it is a very nice region.

Note my email if you need more help with French : <snip>

Yes, that's the proper translation, but I would be wary of renting a car from LeClerc. I would contact AutoEurope in advance and rent from them. Among other things, you'll have a dedicated 24/7 phone number to call if there are any problems. It will cost more than 8 euros a day (which frankly sounds unbelievable), but you will have backup, proper insurance, etc.

Yes ... we've rented quite a lot of basic cars overseas, but never less than about €20 per day at the very rock bottom. i would check that the vehicle has a steering wheel and four tyres.

A van in Beaune is not disponible. A class A - something like a Fiat 500 - start with 25€ per day + insurance. And good luck if you try the Leclerc Internet site to book one.
