Holidaymakers that are travelling abroad need to make sure they are aware of any local customs so as to avoid causing offence to those living in the area.
This is the view of travel editor at Lonely Planet Tom Hall, who explained that some travellers can "inadvertently create the wrong impression" while on holiday.
"It”s understandable that when you go on holiday, you want to let yourself [off] the leash," he remarked, adding that this can mean some people forget their "common sense" when overseas.
He urged those going on holiday to make sure they understand what is acceptable and what is not at the place they are going to, advice that may be useful to those that have booked holiday homes in France.
The issue may have to be considered by a number of British holidaymakers heading to the country, as a spokesperson for the government tourism department Atout France recently stated that it is an attractive destination for many due to its location.
