Ideally located on the Emerald Coast, this French home is all about lazy mornings in bed, fresh breakfast croissants at the dining table, coffee in the garden, and beach days out in the sunshine and fresh air. In short, you’re encouraged to forget about time, toss out the itinerary and just do whatever calls to you.

If that’s reading out on the terrace where you can admire the beautiful garden whenever you take a sip of your coffee, then so be it. Or maybe you’d prefer to snuggle together on the sofa to binge-watch a few seasons of your favourite series.

Walk down to the Plage du Val for romantic strolls on the beach, or explore the cove of Havre de Rothéneuf. Drive to Saint-Malo where you can spend the day taking enviable holiday photos as you wander around hand-in-hand. Stop off for a meal at the local restaurant on your way back, or order in so you enjoy an intimate dinner right at home.
