Quiet house 900 metres from the beach

Close to sailing, windsurfing, and more, this smoke-free vacation home brings it all within reach. Thanks to the convenient onsite parking, you can either leave your vehicle behind and let your feet make short work of the 10-minute walk to Chatelaillon-Plage Tourist Office, or easily tackle the quick 4-minute drive to Bay of Biscay. If you're looking to expand your horizons and see other nearby locales, you can catch a train at Chatelaillon-Plage Station, a short 14-minute walk away.

After you return to this 1238-sq-ft vacation home, unwind in the hot tub or sip a drink in the garden, and don't forget about the outdoor furniture. For a change of scenery, come inside and enjoy the free WiFi, TV, stereo, and DVD player.

This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom rental features a dining area, a sofa bed, a BBQ grill, and air conditioning. You can also use the jetted bathtub, plus other bathroom amenities like a hair dryer. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and a microwave. And because there's access to laundry facilities, you can go a bit lighter on your packing.
