What makes Villa des Chevreuils a great holiday rental
Attractive modern villa featuring a striking curved design.  

• Good facilities for young children including heated pool, home cinema & garden swing
• Brand new furnishings and equipment
• Flexible bedrooms (3 doubles can be split into twins)
• Short drive to beaches & resorts but away from 'hustle & bustle'

For a special occasion or just to make your holiday even more relaxing, why not book one of our bespoke catering packages as part of your stay at this villa.
 

Best for:

The house is set up well for a family with younger children - the owners live here with two young kids outside of July & August. 

Suitability for:

• Toddlers - heated pool, garden with swing, dvd player, stairgate, lagoon 'play' beach at Hossegor
• Teenagers - home cinema, wifi, dvd, iPod docking stations. Quiet village location but only a short drive to 'cool' Hossegor.
• Reduced mobility - ground floor bedroom & bathroom

Anything to watch out for?
The bedrooms are not especially large. A little bit of traffic noise should be expected - a minor road connecting the two villages of Saubion and Seignosse is just beyond the back garden. The road is not visible and it is only a minor road. Staircase requires a little care with toddlers. 

Why Hossegor?
An established surfing resort with a very 'cool' vibe. The resort offers great beaches, good shopping, a lovely lagoon and plenty of activities (surf, golf, tennis, cycling, sailing & more). There's also a wealth of restaurants (neighbouring Capbreton is best for seafood) and oysters are farmed in the lagoon - you can do tastings.

Location

Situated on the Seignosse side of Saubion village, in a quiet residential cul-de-sac. The house is a 10 minute walk into Saubion village centre with its boulangerie, tabac and restaurant. Some traffic noise is apparent from the Saubion-Seignosse road which lies just beyond the back garden (the road is not visible) but it's a minor route between two villages.

It's very easy to reach the beaches of Seignosse Ocean and Hossegor (10 mins by car). Equally it's only 10 mins to the autoroute junction for days out, north and south. This is a privileged region famed for its superb landscape of pine forests and endless beaches.

The Local Area

Saubion
Small village just a short drive from the popular resort of Hossegor. The village has a handy boulangerie, tabac and restaurant.

Two larger villages nearby are St Vincent de Tyrosse which has a Course Landaise venue as well as a good selection of shops. Also, St Geours de Maremne which has an excellent swimming pool complex (25m pool, counter-current and wave pool, kids' pool, saunas & hammam).

Hossegor, Capbreton & Seignosse
The local region of Sud Landes is typical Aquitaine - endless stretches of sandy eaches buffeted by the Atlantic ocean, vast pine forests punctuated by the occasional lake and criss-crossed by a network of cycle trails.

Capbreton and Hossegor are neighbouring seaside towns which between them offer an appealing contrast. Hossegor is the more famous, largely through its surfing pedigree. It's a 'feelgood' place offering boutique shopping, great bars and restaurants, world-amous surfing beaches, casino, a lovely golf course and a beautiful lagoon for safe bathing and sailing.

Capbreton lives in the shadow of Hossegor but it's the place the locals prefer for eating out and quieter beaches. It's definitely the more authentic of the two, largely because of its fishing port and daily fish market. In fact, the town thrived in the 19th century as a whaling port and this sea-faring heritage is still very much apparent today. It also boasts a modern marina, a charming town centre and market and remains, admirably, something of a French (and Spanish) secret.

Seignosse comprises three distinct parts: Seignosse Ocean, Golf de Seignosse and Seignosse Bourg. The resort incorporates the fabulous beaches les Estagnots, Bourdaines and le Penon. It's a mostly residential area with a number of holiday homes and apartments. Popular with surfers and families, the beaches are superb. There are seasonal shops, a bit of nightlife and a Water Park. Golf de Seignosse is monster of a course ranked in Continental Europe’s Top 50! Very welcoming clubhouse with a restaurant and bar with fabulous views of the course from the terrace. In the Bourg (village) you will find an excellent tennis centre and useful everyday shops.

Service: Product:

Service: Good 'product' offering and communication

Product: Only the lack of air con avoided it being rated Excellent AND the cleaning can always be to a better standard [a mid week cursory clean would also be beneficial]

Review posted on 20 Aug 2016

Service: Product:

Service: The house itself was fine. It was superficially clean when we arrived; all pots needed washing before being used, the fridge and cupboards needed cleaning, the bbq was caked with grease and a colony of ants commuted nightly across the kitchen counter. There is a large holiday caravan campground just down the road. The music was very loud late into the evening every night of the first week and more moderate but still loud during week 2. The rear road itself is louder than we had understood based on the property description.

Product: As above.

Service: The extra information and map you provided were very useful, and your advice before booking really helped in our decision-making, so thank you!

Product: Very well-equipped, and I don't remember the fantastic climbing frame & trampoline mentioned, but a definite + for us
