Situated a ten-minute drive from La Rochelle, this fuss-free apartment is an excellent base from which to explore the southwestern coast of France. Inside, a monochrome palette is jazzed up with pops of jewel blue. There’s an open-plan living space with a comfy couch for kicking back with a coffee in the morning and a fully-equipped kitchenette for when you fancy flexing your culinary skills. Outside, you’ll find a private balcony – the perfect spot for sipping sundowners at the end of a busy day.

When you’re ready to explore, jump in the car and head into town. Enjoy strolling past the medieval half-timbered houses in the old quarter before finding a spot by the marina to savour an ice cream. If a beach day is on the cards, Plage Chef de Baie is only a twenty-minute walk from your doorstep.
