Official, the French are crazy...

Hey, the Guardian said it, so don't blame me...

News of some of the new "Boutique" hotel offerings from those that gave the world the idea of "Chic..."

The Guardian reports that "Pretty gîtes are a bit old hat now, but France has plenty of wacky alternatives, from tents hanging in trees to a house that turns with the sun. Click through our gallery to see the best billets with la différence...

Spend the night on a bed of straw in a hayloft, or in a treehouse, yurt or tipi on this farm in the Vosges. For something even more original, try the glass pyramid or a real Caravelle aeroplane transformed into a “loft”, with a living room and bedrooms set amid a large lawn...

For those who dream of sleeping under the stars, but in the warm, the glass pyramid offers a unique experience...

There are no curtains, but it is far enough away from other buildings to ensure privacy..."

For more on these magnificently strange offerings, please go to http://www.guardian.co.uk/travel/gallery/2011/feb/19/hotels-france#/?picture=371788700&index=0
