Many of the properties in Aquitaine are historic and make use of regional materials and there are often elaborate porches or distinctive roof shapes as well as other features like shuttered windows and bright hues used for large sections or in vibrant pops of colour on the exteriors of houses. All of this adds up to create impossibly charming and incredibly pretty houses that can sometimes look like something plucked right from a fairytale... the perfect place for your next vacation in France!

France is home to some of the top surfing destinations in Europe and, if you have already hit up the beaches and caught the waves of some of her other famous spots such as Biarritz and Hossegor, then you should check out our vacation rentals in Lacanau. This is one of the best places to surf along the Atlantic Coast of France and has an impressive sandy beach that stretches for a vast distance. With hiking and biking trails through the pine forest, an unspoiled lake that is popular for fishing, canoeing, and more, and a lively summer atmosphere, this is the perfect place for those who want to simply spend their vacation enjoying getting out into nature, taking beautiful scenery, and partaking in some fun activities!

Lacanau is located on the west coast of the Medoc Peninsula, north of Arcachon and to the north-west of Bordeaux. The beach of the resort of Lacanau Océan is an astounding 14 kilometres long and boasts fine white sand with charming dunes as well as an impressively consistent westerly Atlantic swell. In fact, there are relatively few days each year where it is not possible to surf at this beach. And, of course, through late spring, summer, and early autumn, it has all of the ingredients necessary for dreamy days on the beach.
