After a complicated July and a satisfactory August, with an overall increase in French visitor numbers of +3.2%, the Haute-Vienne summer season is stabilizing, despite a slowdown in foreign arrivals.
2024 will remain a decent season in comparison with past post-Covid years, 2023 having been a good benchmark year. With favorable weather and a clement economic climate, the off-season (from September to the All Saints’ vacation) could well bring an additional boost to business, offsetting an atypical start to the season.
A complicated season for hoteliers, but a decent one for campsites and vacation rentals, thanks to the month of August. Some nautical and sporting activities are not unhappy. While other cultural activities may slow down until the off-season.
