Description

Perfectly placed for easy access to all the attractions of the coastline around the pretty harbour town of La Rochelle, this golden Charentaise farmhouse lies in a tiny, tranquil hamlet. You can be enjoying a petit dejeuner of buttery croissants for breakfast on your private patio and stepping on to beautiful Atlantic beaches only 30 minutes later. Little ones will love scooting about on the ride-on toys in the acre of landscaped gardens complete with large terraced swimming pool and swings, slide and sandpit.
