About this property

A typical renovated villa: a family cottage on the Arcachon Basin

  • Our home is perfect for wonderful moments with family or friends… cosy, built almost entirely of wood, spacious, with a beautiful swimming pool, and child-friendly. From the moment you walk through the door and catch the scent of wood, it inspires a sense of relaxation and family holidays on the Bassin!! Our home is located 300 metres from the coastal trail. You can explore our magnificent region by bike, train, or car. All access points are within 5 minutes of our home.
    It’s perfect for quiet, relaxing stays. It has allowed us to enjoy an exceptional life with our three children.
    Fully equipped, the children’s toys and books are still in our bookshelf. We wanted to keep it as warm and welcoming as possible for our guests.

Vacances FAMILLE

Nous avons passé une semaine féerique dans cette maison. Nous l’avons loué pour fêter les 70 ans de maman : 3 générations réunies ; grands-parents, enfants et petits-enfants. La maison idéale pour cet événement!!!! Cette « cabane » est parfaite!! La piscine avec son goût salé idéale pour les tournois de volley 😊 Merci à Julie et Matthieu pour votre accueil et vos conseils pour découvrir Arcachon, la dune, le cap Ferret et ses alentours.

Très chouette maison familiale

Maison située dans un quartier calme mais à proximité des commerces à pieds ou à vélo. Très proche de la mer. Bon point de départ pour visiter le bassin d Arcachon. Belles balades possibles aux alentours. Propriétaire très accueillant et disponible. Petites attentions à notre arrivée. Maison propre et fonctionnelle pour une grande famille. Jardin et piscine chauffée très bien entretenus. Je recommande

La maison est agréable à vivre.

Nous avons été très bien accueillis, Mme Lourenço est aux petits soins pour ses hôtes ! La maison est grande, avec toutes les fonctionnalités qu'on peut désirer. On a tous pu profiter d'une piscine chauffée, d'une grande terrasse et d'un endroit calme et silencieux. Nous vous remercions beaucoup pour tout vos conseils Mme Lourenço. Bonne continuation
