HOUSE in the countryside on a 2 h estate a few kilometers from the sea

Close to sailing, windsurfing, and more, this family-friendly vacation home brings it all within reach. Jump into your car and make short work of the 10-minute drive to Aqualand St Cyprien or the 7-minute drive to Ferme de Decouverte (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime).

After you return to this 180-sq-ft vacation home, you can unwind by the outdoor pool or sip a drink in the garden; you may also like the deck or patio and outdoor furniture. For a change of scenery, come inside and try your hand at table tennis, or enjoy the WiFi and cable/satellite TV.

As you settle into the place, you'll find a dining area, a BBQ grill, air conditioning, and a desk. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer, towels, and toilet paper. The kitchen is equipped with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and a lobster pot. And because there's access to laundry facilities, you can go a bit lighter on your packing.
