Article A 111-2 of the town planning code which defines leisure residences in France was modified and supplemented on 8 April 2024. This makes it possible to deviate from the maximum surface area of 40m² under two conditions: 

  • That their surface area does not exceed 50 square meters;
  • That they are designed to accommodate persons with reduced mobility and allow, under normal operating conditions, all people likely to access them with the greatest possible autonomy, to circulate, access the premises, use the equipment, find their way, orient themselves, communicate and benefit from the services for which they were designed.
