This newly renovated apartment in central Bordeaux, home to largest urban World Heritage Site, is perfect for couples and small families. Cute and quirky, this fabulous French home features a lovely, light filled open plan kitchen cum dining cum living room characterised by pops of red, contrasting coloured wall paper.  You’ll love waking up in your idiosyncratically decorated room for two, and delighting in a rain shower before breakfast in the white tiled kitchen. Read, relax or watch the world go by from the sofa next to the window while making a plan for the day. This home’s superb location in the semi-pedestrian Saint-Pierre district, the city’s historic heart, means you’ll be wandering the cobbled streets and stumbling across picturesque squares in no time. 

A stone’s throw from the best Bordeaux has to offer by way of museums and cultural heritage sites as well as restaurants and bars, why not plot a course through the Place du Parlement, the Place du Palais or the Place de la Bourse, before visiting CAPC, the musée d'art contemporain, Saint-André Cathedral, and the Grand Théâtre de Bordeaux? You won’t want to miss out on sampling both Bordelais premiers crus and cuisine and vibrant Saint-Pierre hosts a sassy mix of traditional French kitchens, experimental neobistros, creative fusion restaurants, food trucks and barista-run coffee shops, a gastronomic scene that is sure to impress even the most discerning of bon vivants.

Combining French Regency style with sleek modern accents, this elegant apartment in the heart of the Golden Triangle is an excellent launch-pad for discovering the very best of Bordeaux. Wake up with an espresso and a buttery croissant in the opulent living space – we loved the double height ceilings, parquet flooring and triptych of French doors. Recline on the plush sofa with a crossword puzzle until you’re ready to take the city by storm. 

Spend sunny afternoons strolling around the nearby Jardin Public before nipping into the Museum of Decorative Arts and Design. Visit the iconic Place de la Bourse, treat yourself to a shopping spree on the Rue Sainte-Catherine and admire the 15th-century Porte Cailhau. In the early evening, after a bite to eat in a revered brasserie, head home with a bottle of the region’s famous wine and enjoy a glass or two on your private balcony as the sky turns violet.

Nestled away deep within vineyard country between the Garonne and Dordogne, Monségur is a quintessential bastide town full of medieval architecture and this impressive home is a suitably characterful place to stay if you're planning a visit.

It's a more recent addition to the locale than many of the nearby buildings, but there are still a few centuries of heritage in the walls and this sense of history has been expertly retained during a recent renovation, which prioritised traditional methods and materials. Take a wander throughout the ground floor and you'll spot antique furnishings, period features and elegant decorations evocative of years gone by. At the same time, guests are also treated to all of the amenities to be expected in the 21st century – we're talking sleek kitchens and bathrooms, plus plenty of tech and gizmos.

We've been saving the best until last, however. Out in the enclosed garden, it's pretty clear to see where long summer afternoons will be spent – flitting between the cooling waters of the swimming pool and the surrounding loungers. Of course, if the weather's on your side during your stay, there are plenty of wineries, abbeys and walking routes to explore in the surrounding Entre-Deux-Mers region, as well. The city of Bordeaux only takes an hour to reach by car, too.

Self Check-in / Check-out

Few things sounds more romantic than a cottage situated in the middle of wine country, where the endless vineyards sprawl and birds chirp. Perfect for a long-awaited holiday away from the kids or a getaway for a budding romance, the home is small but its surroundings are vast and baby-blue French shutters are ever-so charming. Escape right out to the private gardens from the pastel bedroom. After days lounging by the pool or drifting in the nearby river, take the bikes to one of two nearby towns to explore gothic churches and to pick up local delicacies like fresh truffles and a bottle (or two) of wine for enjoyment on the stone terrace. Intimacy is the emphasis here, and we can guarantee this home as a perfect start to a French-inspired love story.

With views overlooking a golf course, easy access to Lacanau Lake and the beach at Lacanau-Ocean – both just four kilometres away, albeit in opposite directions – there really is something for everyone here. But, if you’re not strolling the fairways or splashing in the sea, it’s easy to relax back at home. With plenty of space to spread out and pine trees framing the villa, privacy is guaranteed. Add to that the private pool, sun-kissed terraces and opportunities for alfresco family meals, and this modern home will surely tick a lot of your holiday boxes.

Sit back, relax and drink in Bordeaux's unforgettable charm at this cosy hideaway in the heart of the historic city centre. Just a short walk from Rue Sainte Catherine, Place de la Bourse and Grosse Cloche, you'll be incredibly located for whatever tickles your fancy, be it sightseeing, shopping or sampling the region's most famous wines. 

A stroll along the Garonne River will get your day off to a great start, as will a delicious pastry from a local boulangerie. Following an alfresco lunch, discover the city's renowned museums in the afternoons while evenings call for dinner, drinks and a grand night at the Opéra National, also within walking distance.

If you prefer a laid-back approach to your travels, this third-floor apartment is just the ticket. Nestled in a stone building dating back to the 19th century, there's plenty of character to fall in love with here – we're talking exposed stone walls, wooden beams and typical Parisian-style windows with wrought-iron balconettes. 

Come home after a long day, kick off your shoes and unwind in style. Prepare your own take on classic French dishes in the kitchen – best served, of course, with a glass of Bourdeaux's dry red at the stylish island. A soak in the bathtub is the perfect way to end the day, or simply snuggle up with a book on the sofa before bed, instead.

Pool / Snooker Table

Tucked away in the Cote de Bourg area just north of Bordeaux, this fairytale 19th-century chartreuse overlooks beautiful vineyards and the rolling landscape beyond. The seclusion makes this a tranquil getaway – especially when swimming in the private pool or enjoying the ample seating outside – but with this being an active vineyard, it's also a unique way to experience the French countryside. The interior, all rustic rafters and palatial furnishings, might not be everyone's cup of tea, but there's plenty of space and charm here. It is worth noting that there are only three bathrooms to share between fourteen guests. The country house is bold and full of character, and the pool table is a nice touch too.

Comte de Montagny

Originally built as an old farmhouse, this beautiful home combines rustic charm with a light colour palette to create a space that feels both cosy and light, and certainly inviting enough for you to relax in. 

We can imagine lazy starts followed by freshly-brewed coffee at the dining table, right next to the statement fireplace. Unfortunately not in working order anymore, the design of the old hearth is still a beautiful focal point to the dining space. Scramble eggs in the minimal kitchen to enjoy alongside fresh croissants, cheese, and caffeine before getting ready for a day of exploration. 

Venture to Cadran Solaire – only minutes away by car – where you can hike the trails and explore the native foliage. In Nérac, about fifteen minutes away, you’ll find the night market and open-air cinema, but it’s also a great place to grab a bite to eat during the day. 

On those days where you find your itinerary completely clear, you’ll delight in the peace on offer at this home. Open the curved doors of the living room and read on the sofa, or head outside where you can walk the grounds until you find the perfect spot for an impromptu picnic. Enjoy sunset drinks on the terrace, barbecued dinners, and collapse onto the lawn every now and again for late-night stargazing.

Rustic on Green

Located in the Bassin d’Arcachon, this charming home sits like a gateway to the refreshing beauty of southwest France. And with views across the surrounding trees, this is the kind of space that has all the qualities of a sanctuary in the woods. 

Stepping inside, you’ll find the gentle lighting and artistic presence of this home provides an instant sense of ease and calm. It’s the perfect place to let go of to–do lists and embrace the simple magic of coastal living. 

Open the doors from the living room and you’ll find the outdoor terrace is perfectly poised for relaxing mornings with a coffee or dreamy sunset drinks. From here, the space opens itself up to slow days reading on the sofa, cooking and sharing atmospheric candle–lit dinners. 

Outside, it’s just a five–minute drive into the centre of Arcachon where the Atlantic Ocean awaits. This is the ideal setting to connect with the vibrant beachside atmosphere, sample the famous oysters and savour the views from Dune of Pilat – just a five–minute drive away. Golfers will also love the close proximity to Golf d’Arcachon – just a three–minute drive away. 

The Blue View

This home is situated in the heart of the Chartrons district, just two minutes from Rue Notre Dame and its many antique shops. On the Garonne banks, Bordeaux's Chartrons district is a sought-after area. You’ll find here the luxury residences of former wine and antique merchants. The neighbourhood is well connected too, and it couldn’t be simpler to get around the city. Tram line B is 50 metres away, while tram line C (200 metres) has services to Bordeaux Station, taking around fifteen minutes.

Back at this abode, relax on the terrace with a glass of local wine or unwind on the sofa in the first-floor open-plan living space. We love the mix of industrial vibe (think pallet box coffee tables and polished concrete ceilings), which contrasts with the vintage prints. Rustle up some le magret de canard grille (grilled duck) in the modern kitchen, and enjoy it with some cèpes en persillade (porcini mushrooms in parsley) at your dining table. This home allows friends, family or work colleagues to live like a local.

Named a ‘Best Romantic Break’ by Liz Earle Wellbeing, this chateau in the stunning setting on the Dordogne-Lot et Garonne border presents a unique experience worth writing home about. 

Amidst the spanning countryside of rolling hills, summer sunflowers and fruit trees, it is rumoured that in former times, the fruit was picked from the gardens and served to the aristocracy residing at the 13th-century château just opposite. These days, the abundance of fauna and flora remains for guests' enjoyment. Roam around the castle's grounds, and as you soak up the views, take in the fresh air – sweetly fragranced by the orchards. 

While the home is listed as an ancient monument, it is restored to a pristine standard with contemporary finishings throughout. With plenty of living areas to relax, it's not just the six beautifully furnished en-suite bedrooms that will have you feeling refreshed and revitalised, as you'll find many quiet spots inside and out, to sit in peace with a glass of Côtes de Duras wine. We particularly love that when evening falls, you can control the coloured lighting of this 13th-century castle in a very 21st-century manner. 

Beyond the chateau and its beautiful garden (featuring a terrace and pool area), stroll along the little path that leads straight to the village of Duras in minutes. Pick up fresh bread and pastries from the boulangerie alongside some fresh fare at the local farmers' market. Then, when you're ready to venture further afield, set off on day trips to discover the likes of Bergerac, Château de Monbazillac and Saint-Émilion – all of which boast medieval architecture, quality restaurants and exquisite Maison des Vins. 



Sunflower Spring

La Belle Vie has been around for well over a hundred years. No fakes, no approximations, just old-style charm and the kind of luxury only the nineteenth-century French nobles could conjure up. Mostly furnished with antiques in various states of refurbishment, this chateau is a walk through the history of comfort — perfect for a large family gathering with older children, or a luxurious base to explore the  the world-famous vineyards of the Aquitaine region. Some off you will start your days with a brisk walk around the estate, and some with a proper morning swim in the private pool. There are plenty of spots to socialise both indoors and outdoors, so reconnecting will be easy even when you're not gathering for one of your fancy meals. And if you're travelling with discerning guests, the host is more than happy to organise a variety of extra services that will turn your stay into a proper five-stay experience. Think private chefs, maid service, babysitting, fridge filling, and more. 

La Belle Vie

Enjoy good times and quality wine with this modern apartment as your comfortable base in Bordeaux. Located in the city's historical centre, the space mixes modernity with old-fashioned charm through a combination of classic and new home furnishings. 

While the food and drink scene in Bordeaux is what makes the city so special, this spot gives you the option of cooking up your own delicious meals in the large kitchen and dining area. And then, after a long day of soaking up the city sights, why not soak in the bathtub with a glass of local wine in hand? Utter bliss. 

From this central home, you'll be within convenient walking distance of the city centre's shops, bars and restaurants. Meanwhile, the banks of the River Garonne, Place St Colombe, Rue Sainte Catherine and Place du Palais are all just a few steps away. 






Good Wine & Quality Time 

Rooftop Terrace

It's not every day you find a place with two outdoor spaces in the heart of a city. This gem of a home is putting an end to the idea that being in the city centre automatically means forfeiting space. Here, location, style, comfort, and luxury have beautifully been combined to bring you a showstopper. 

There's a lot to love here, from the contemporary interior to the fantastic location, but the outdoor space takes the cake. There's something wonderful about waking up in the morning and stepping straight outside to feel the sun on your face, and here, you get that small but special treat from each bedroom. Invigorating fresh coffees in the sun are the perfect way to start the day. Whether you're on the rooftop terrace or the patio, you'll feel a far cry from the hustle and bustle of Bordeaux city centre, despite being close to all the action.

Exploring Bordeaux comes easy here. You're just a five-minute walk from the tram, which takes you all across the city. Or, you can take to the wine metropolis on foot – you're just 1.5km away from the historic centre. There, you can take a walk along the famous promenade which is lined by restaurants and bars, discover the city's museums, and spot some notable sights, like the 11th-century Bordeaux Cathedral. 

However you spend your day, you'll love coming home to your bright, welcoming home. Take the spiral stairs up to the rooftop terrace, armed with a bottle of local wine, to watch the sky envelop into hues of reds and oranges at dusk. When dinner rolls around, your kitchen is perfectly equipped for whipping up meals at home. But if you don't feel like cooking, there are several brilliant restaurants nearby, ready to welcome you. 

City Tropicale

Modern and illuminated, this charming apartment is designed to maximise your Bordeaux city break. Soak up some history and culture from The Golden Triangle – its impressive architecture, significant statues and monuments, La Place de la Comédie, and the Grand Théâtre are just moments from your apartment – then head home to enjoy a glass from the region in your elegant space.

Minimal in design, this home balances modern touches with traditional features – we love the original wooden floors and beamed ceilings. It’s the kind of space that’s designed to enrich your stay with its bright and inviting atmosphere. And whether you're sipping your morning coffee at the kitchen bar, firing off a couple of emails from the bedroom’s desk space or preparing a Bordeaux-inspired dinner in the sleek kitchen – make sure to pick up your ingredients from the diverse and dynamic Marché des Capucins – there’s a sense of ease and openness here.

When you’re ready to step out and soak up the culture, you’ll be within walking distance of the Place de la Bourse, Opéra National de Bordeaux and Bordeaux Museum of Fine Arts. 

The Gold Triangle

Netflix

Lift Access

With its long licks of golden sand, fragrant pine forests and impeccable oysters, Arcachon is an unmissable spot on the southwest coast of France. And where better to base yourself than this modern apartment, situated in the heart of town, just a minute’s walk from the seafront. Inside the abode, we loved the subtle nautical touches and we couldn’t get enough of the south-facing balcony, especially at sundown with a glass of red in hand. Rustle up French culinary classics in the compact kitchenette or dine out at a seafood restaurant a five-minute walk from your doorstep. Spend warm afternoons cycling along the promenade, then take the fifteen-minute drive to survey the landscape from Dune du Pilat, Europe’s highest sand dune. When the day draws to a close, retreat home to your quiet bedroom for a blissful slumber in your comfortable bed.

Sea Salt Spray

Wine Cellar

Nestled inside its very own vineyard, this luxurious château will be a favourite for wine-lovers and francophiles alike. The regal honey-coloured exterior, with its purple adornment of wisteria, dazzles immediately as you enter the grounds. Inside, the home has been lovingly restored and the rooms are light and spacious. Modern touches and elegant furnishings blend with classical remnants. We especially love the claw foot bath, which will make for a dramatic soak. However, the standout feature of this home is its idyllic surroundings. Watch from your window the workings of the organic, bio-dynamic vineyard and sample the well-known Saint-Émilion Grand Cru. This Chateau provides a perfect base to explore this captivating region. Saint-Émilion is situated just three kilometres away with its golden-cobbled streets providing a delightful maze to get lost in. If you’re craving the hustle and bustle of a more well-renowned city, Bordeaux can be reached via the coast in a little over an hour. 

Grand Cru Wine

Underfloor Heating

Whether you’re in search of a lakeside adventure or a slow-paced French escape, this home invites you to enjoy it all from its privileged position on the sandy shores of Lac d’Hourtin-Carcans. 

From leisurely strolls along the promenade to wild swimming and hiking in nearby Étang de Lacanau, you’ll find every sense serenaded by the natural charm of this location. And for those in search of the refreshing spirit of the Atlantic sea, it’s just a five-minute drive to Carcans beach or a little further on to Lacanau. 

Wherever the day takes you, this home provides a refreshingly simple space to relax and unwind. Enjoy the beautiful views whilst sipping drinks on the terrace, savour the comfort of cooking with fresh local produce in the fully equipped kitchen and come together for heart-warming evenings around the table – accompanied by a glass (or two) of local wine. 

Golden Lake

Journey through the vineyards of Bordeaux before finding yourself at this stone villa on the bank of the Dordogne. The highlight of this stay for us is not only the view of the romantic river, but the direct access to it via a private dock or one of the included kayaks. If you do happen to tire of a lazy day by the river (or pool if you’d rather), explore the private gardens, scenic as a Monet painting, and pick at seasonal treats for your family or friends to snack on. Speaking of food, you can take the bikes out to the nearby boulangerie for croissants and tarts. We should also mention that the local farm’s goats cheese selection is sensational, especially when paired with wines from the neighbouring vineyards. 

River Days

Set within the bourgeois and bohemian streets of Les Chartrons, this apartment opens its doors to spectacular views across the River Garonne. 

Light, airy and full of character, the rooms provide the perfect setting for a relaxing city stay – one that will leave you feeling refreshed and inspired from the moment of arrival. And while the location sings with Bourdeaux’s historic charm, you’ll find this home provides more than a touch of contemporary comfort. 

From quiet mornings sipping coffee by the window to laid-back gatherings around the table and cosy evenings on the sofa, this is the kind of space that transforms to suit the mood of the moment.

Stepping outside, it’s just a short walk through the leafy streets of Les Chartrons to the vibrant bars and restaurants of the neighbourhood. The CAPC Contemporary Art Museum is right on your doorstep, while the Jardin Public is also just a short walk away – providing the perfect spot for dreamy picnics and sunset strolls around the lake. 

River Chic 

Soak up the rustic charm of this beautiful home, filled with character and all the luxuries you might want from a stay in France. Go for a float in the private pool or get some remote work done at the dedicated desk. Who says you can't be productive on holiday? The garden is perfect for sitting out under the trees with a drink, and the terrace is perfect for alfresco dining. Get a good night's sleep in the round bed upstairs, and relax in one of many shaded and sun-kissed spots outside.

Enjoy picnics by the banks of the Dordogne and strolls through the markets of Périgord. If you're looking for somewhere to eat, there are plenty of options a short drive away, whatever you're craving. Enjoy hours of exploration whether you're a hiker, a cyclist, or even a sailor. In the summer months, rent a kayak or canoe and traverse the Dordogne river. In the evening, the plush sofas of the two living areas make for cosy places to gather and discuss a busy day.

Bliss by the Pool

This fully restored castle in the Dordogne manages to merge the modern with the ancient. The stone foundations may date back as early as the 5th-century, but the interior is dotted with modern art and all the little luxuries of modern life. There's over 15 hectares of land to explore, with a swimming pool, terraces, and a barbecue area for al fresco dining. The castle backs on to the vineyards of Bergerac, so you're never too far from a glass of locally produced wine. Should the weather turn, the games room with a billiards table and library with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves provide quality indoor entertainment.

Old World Meets New

Driving up to this 18th-century chateau in the Bergerac region of France might invoke a sense of actually travelling back in time. And if driving in through wrought-iron gates and past decorative moats doesn’t do it, the interior of this beautiful home just might. Between exposed beams, historical fireplaces, rough-stone walls, chandeliers, and a spiral staircase made of stone, you might get lost in the idea that you’re actually living like royalty. Which is exactly the type of attitude we encourage – take it a step further by having high tea out on the terrace, curling up on the period furniture with a classic novel after you’ve kindled a fire, or walking around the 30-hectare estate of woods and meadow in search of the perfect spot for tea and macarons. 

With plenty of space on offer, everyone is sure to find a nook that serves them just right and you might find yours in one of the palatial bedrooms or in a secluded spot in the garden where you can sit down at the bistro table with a glass of wine. 

Come together in and around the pool where you can dangle your feet into the crystal clear water or make use of one of the sunloungers. With seclusion comes peace and tranquillity and this home makes enjoying that environment to the fullest, easy – offering you every opportunity to spend lazy, sun-filled days in whichever way would make you the happiest. If that means exploring, then you can venture to beautifully restored towns such as Sarlat, Bergerac or Périgueux, and if it means golfing, you’d be happy to find a course minutes away. 

Purple Périgord Chateau

Foosball / Table Football

Access to Gym / Spa

Sauna

Tennis Court

Breakfast Included

This elegant home is a superb base for large groups. It sits in the Gironde department, in a position ideal for visiting both Bordeaux and Saint-Émilion, though you may find yourself entirely content to stay put. The home is set within 52 acres of grounds with walking and jogging trails, and your host can even arrange for you to go horse-riding. The estate also boasts its own vineyard, so wine tasting is a must. We love the swimming pool and the terrace for alfresco dining, and the tennis court will be popular with more active guests. This is a traditional home so the decor won’t suit those seeking a sleek, modern space. 

Sweet & Fresh

Outdoor Kitchen

The epitome of countryside charm, this home is situated on a hilltop overlooking the picturesque landscape of Moncrabeau. From the private heated pool and covered terrace, you can admire views of rolling hills and sunflower fields – it’s an idyllic setting. You can even pick fruit from the trees and grapes from the vines for the meals you’ll prepare in the small summer kitchen. Children will love the trampoline and table tennis, while grown-ups will enjoy the 3-kilometre walk into the riverside village of Moncrabeau for the weekly market. 

Sunflower Bliss

Perhaps unsurprisingly for a chateau that dates back to the 16th century, there's a real air of grandeur at this address. Perhaps the best example of this can be seen in the dining room, which has parquet flooring, wood-panelled walls and a truly monumental 17th-century fireplace. The Beupoil family wallpaper in the living room wouldn't be of place in a museum, while the mosaic-tiled bathrooms are fit for a Roman Emporer, too.

The home's forty acres of private grounds are just as impressive as the lavish interior. Not only are there wonderful views of the Isle River Valley and the woods of Antoniac, but there's also a private swimming pool from which you can admire this rustic vista. Add to that an outdoor games area with tables for ping-pong and pool, plus a barbecue, and you've got everything you need for a stretch of alfresco living.

In the local area, the edge of Parc Naturel Régional Périgord-Limousin takes a quarter of an hour to reach in the car and offers no shortage of beautiful French countryside to wander through. The town of Perigueux is a five-minute drive away too and rewards visitors with a collection of fantastic restaurants, plus a twice-weekly outdoor market.


Yesteryear

Once an ancient fortress, before becoming a palace in the seventeenth-century, Cypress Way is more than a beautiful holiday home. Set on twenty-five acres of private land, there's plenty to see and do in this beautiful part of France. The entire property is made up of the main house, as well as a guest house – making it possible for up to twenty-four people to stay here. Whether you want to celebrate a special occasion or simply live your best life, Cypress Way could offer a dreamy escape from your daily routines.

Cypress Way

Just a three-minute walk from the Plage d'Arcachon beach, this modern apartment boasts sparkling sea views over the red rooftops. On your doorstep, you'll discover the lovely Les Halles market, where you can pick up fresh fruit and local produce. Or, why not try your luck at the seafront Casino d'Arcachon? With lots of exciting boat trips at hand, there is something for everyone to enjoy at this dreamy holiday destination.

From your Juliet balcony, you'll want to let the breeze rush through the bedroom as you overlook the beautiful bay, only 400 metres away. Each morning, indulge your sweet tooth at this sleek dining table and opt for pain au chocolat. When it's time to explore, we think that this place promises you the perfect base, whether you're staying here on a solo adventure or a romantic getaway. Later, come back to this serene space and soak your feet in the bathtub, then pour yourself a glass of French wine as you watch an idyllic sunset.

Oyster Cove

This quintessentially French chateau is simply breathtaking. It’s a twin tower house that could easily be mistaken for a fairy-tale castle at first glance, and it offers stunning views of the surrounding sunflower fields, which create a magical yellow carpet when they come out to bloom. You’ll also be amazed at the beautiful outdoor pool and pool house – both provide the perfect backdrop for summertime family fun. You’re sure to make many happy memories at this home, which boasts plenty of room for every guest to stretch out and relax.

Start each day with a refreshing dip in your outdoor pool while you watch the sun come up over the yellow fields. Enjoy lounging in the shaded area that offers views of the water, while you sip on a coffee and plan out the rest of your day. Cook up a French breakfast of boudin noir and scrambled eggs, and eat together around the majestic dining table. Head into the pool house to play ping pong, and pour some cocktails in the summer kitchen. 

If you want to venture out, Castillonnes is a short drive away, where you'll find a lively market, as well as lovely restaurants and sights to see. Or, just go on a walk around the gorgeous grounds – the sunflowers offer up some amazing photo opportunities. When the evening rolls in, pop the champagne and fire up the barbecue for a night of alfresco fun, or head into the drawing room to sit by the fireplace with a good book. 


Sunflower Fields Forever

Can't decide between a beach break, a rural retreat or a city escape? This cosy apartment marries all three. It resides just five minutes from the centre of Arcachon and the gorgeous beaches along the coastline, whilst being encompassed by a huge forest. Oh, and did we mention it's also next door to a lush golf course? It lets you have every type of holiday in one trip.

With all that in mind, it's hard to know where to begin. For the beach-lovers, grab your towels and spend the day sunbathing on the golden sands. Bring refreshments and take dips in the water to cool off under the summer sun. 

If you prefer a more adventurous holiday, discover the various walking trails across the forest. After strolling through the verdant scenery, grab your clubs and head to the refined greens of the golf course. 

For the days where you want to go at a slower pace, you can mosey around the cute city centre. Pick up some bread, cheese and wine to enjoy back on the terrace for carefree evenings in the tranquility of nature. 

Hole In Three

Situated in the heart of Arcachon next to the famous market and golden sandy beaches (a five-minute walk away), this charming apartment is a great base to return to for an evening aperitif, whether you're sunbathing or sightseeing. With direct access onto a private balcony off the main bedroom and a sheltered terrace to enjoy dinner and drinks, you'll be spoilt for choice when it comes to picking a space to sit back and unwind.

We can’t think of a better way to start the day than waking up from your restful slumber, cradling a mug of hot coffee on your balcony. And as if your two furnished terraces weren't enough, there are another two dining tables in the open-plan living space and kitchen, so you can tuck into your croque monsieur or fresh croissants while mapping out the day ahead.
