Imagine fields of poppies in the spring light, sunflowers in the summer, and a glistening coastline that delivers beautiful beaches all year round, and you’ll find yourself here in the region of Charente-Maritime. And nestled on its shores in Bourcefranc-le-Chapus, this home welcomes you to experience the magic of coastal living.

From the warm palette of colours and simple styling to the snug bedrooms (each with its own bathroom) and sun-dappled terrace, the owners have created a home that brings ease and joy to daily living. So whether you’re here for a restorative seaside escape or an intimate family celebration, this is the kind of space that lends itself perfectly to the need of the moment.

Enjoy a quiet morning coffee on the veranda, savour delicious barbecue meals in the garden and gather for cosy evenings by the fire. And when you’re refreshed and ready to explore, you’ll find the endless delights of the Charente-Maritime coast on your doorstep.

From here it’s just a short walk to the bridge that will take you across to the island of Oléron – this is the perfect spot for beach days, picnics and sunset strolls. You’ll also find restaurants, bars, markets and bakeries within easy reach.
