Fancy a coastal retreat? This home in Le Pradet overlooks the shoreline and mountain. Better yet, it's big enough to host full family holidays. The interior retains its 18th-century heritage with a glass roof and original accents, but you'll have to make do with four fans rather than air conditioning here. Enjoy barbecue cookouts on the terrace, with a swimming pool to come. A 300-metre stroll from the sands of Pin de Galles, you'll find restaurants and golf courses nearby.

Home truths:
*This home has no air conditioning, but there are four fans to help keep you cool.
*While one of the bedrooms and most of the bathrooms aren’t photographed, expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home. There's a bathroom in the outdoor shed.
*An above-ground swimming pool has been added since the photos were taken.
*There’s free parking in the car park here. Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay.
