Beautiful Sunlit Seaside Home in Charming Village

Stylishly restored home with private sun terrace and garden, overlooking trees and countryside, this bright and airy house is flooded with natural light.

Perfectly located 7 minutes walk to Wissant’s charming centre with restaurants, bars and shops, (fully stocked supermarket, locally caught fish, pharmacy, gelaterie) and 8 minutes to the sandy beach.

On your door-step, miles of way-marked footpaths and cycle routes in this amazing “Grand Site de France” landscape of coast and countryside.

This attractive detached house was renovated in 2026, with new decorations, fixtures, fittings and furniture including new beds and mattresses. We have designed our new home to be a relaxing, comfortable place to stay year-round for couples, families and friends. We enjoy cooking and the kitchen is well equipped.

Wissant has so much to offer, we love being able to walk to the village for bread and croissants; to the sandy beach enjoying stretching views and the most stunning sunsets and yet be in the heart of the unspoilt countryside of the Opal coast with a wealth of places to visit. You’ll have a pretty garden with views of trees and countryside, birdsong and star-lit skies, in a quiet cul-de-sac. With a stylish wood-burning stove, as well as electric central heating, this house is ideal in any season. Only 15 minutes drive from the Channel Tunnel (35 minutes to cross), Wissant is real France, really close.

The neighbourhood

A few minutes walk from the house, the sandy beach, backed by dunes, stretches as far as you can see, between the cliffs of Les Deux Caps. A top kite-surf destination, it’s overseen by lifeguards in high season and offers a seascape of unspoilt beauty. There’s also a recently re-designed promenade which makes for a very pleasant walk with wonderful views.

This year-round resort has a full programme of public events - music, fairs, fireworks, brocantes, and the Fête des Flobarts in August celebrating Wissant’s fishing heritage. Local crafts, beers and foods feature in the large market every Wednesday of the year and from April to September there’s a Friday night market as well. We suggest a visit to the Tourist Office in the village to make the most of what’s on.

The area is celebrated for its rich history, protected nature areas, and the special light appreciated by painters that gives its name to the Opal coast. The Wissant School painters' walk lets you discover the history of these artists who came from 1880. They were seduced by the exceptional beauty of the landscapes and the light of Wissant, its bay and the Deux-Caps site.

A picturesque, vibrant and welcoming village, Wissant has received visitors from Lille, Belgium and the UK for many years. It has different charms during every season, from the friteries and ice-creams enjoyed in the summer to the coffee or mulled wine in a traditional bar after a winter market morning. In the village square, is the magnificent 15th century church of St. Nicholas, with working bells.

We hope once you have visited, you will want to return to this special place.
