The facebook page of the British Embassy in Paris has weekly Q&A's and there has been a lot of recent interest in the “attestation d'accueil”. Here is the most recent reply to one of the many questions:
Q Pete Ramsdale
For British citizens visiting France and staying with friends/family can you confirm if we need the “attestation d'accueil (cerfa 10798)” from the Mairie, or “show proof of your accommodation, for example … invitation from your host” as noted on the gov uk website?

Hi Pete, yes, we can now confirm that you do need this. Your friends/family resident in France will need to go to the mairie to complete the requirement for you. We will be updating our Travel Advice shortly.
We own a home in PV but are not resident. From time to time, family and friends use it. I am interested to know whether we shall have to go to the mairie to complete the requirement for them. Any thoughts?
I have posted this on the facebook page as well
