We very much enjoyed staying in Antoineâs property. It was modern and nicely decorated. Well equipped with everything you need. Basics like oil, salt and pepper, washing-up liquid, toilet roll, tin foil were all provided (or at least left there by previous guests) and this was a nice touch. The terrace/deck with electric awning is very pleasant, quite private and is well lit. We visited in October and the house was perfectly warm during the few colder days we experienced. The bed was comfy too. Location wise, it is close to all the attractions of Cap Ferret. I wouldnât hesitate to recommend this house.
We had a great week with our two kids in Antoineâs property. The property is much bigger than the photos suggest and was very spacious for the four of us, and I would suggest it would be more than adequate for six people. The interior is modern and very clean and all essentials are included i.e. bed linen. There is a large deck in the relatively small back garden which is great for outdoor dining and all BBQ paraphernalia is provided. Parking on the road is no problem but it is also possible to park on the property. The local âpetit trainâ passes past the property (which our kids loved) but you donât really hear it when you are inside or out on the deck in the back garden; the road the property is on is otherwise very quiet.
The location of the property is perfect. The nearest beach (Plage de LâHorizion) is less than ten minutesâ walk away and has two beach cafes and a surf school. The waves are big, which is great for the surfers, but could be a bit hazardous for small kids (endless wave jumping done by our kids!); lifeguards do patrol a section of the beach however and are very hot on keeping the surfers out of the bathing zone. We also visited Plage de la Vigne which is a five-minute drive away; this is a much smaller beach next to a small marina with a roped off swimming area with a platform that folk can swim up to. The water is very calm and shallow but the current can be strong so you might feel yourself drifting if you head out a bit further for a swim, however the rope cordon will stop you drifting too far! There are also lots of other beaches to explore within the area.
The jetty from which boats take you across to Archachon is 15 minutesâ walk from the property and there are several nice bars and restaurants in this area. The boat ride to Archachon takes about 30 mins and is well worth a trip (costs about six euros per person each way). There are several boutiques and restaurants all within a 15-minute walk of the property so car not essential once you are there. The roads are great for cycling (local hire available) and there are lots of cycle tracks through the forest areas.
We would definitely stay at this property again.
We really enjoyed the house in our family holiday. This house is close to the beach, market, little train station and all attractions in Cap Ferret. It was fully equiped with all you need to cook, etc. We would stay here again without looking elsewhere if we ever go back. Antoine is very responsive and an excellent host. You will not be wrong if you choose this property.

We spent a week in this newly renovated house and found it to be super-comfortable. Although its not so big, it is a good size with all the right spaces in the right places... The house was clean and easy to use - a nice size for a family of four with two small children. The location was fantastic - only steps to the ocean - and Antoine was super helpful and easy to deal with. In all, it made our week in Cap Ferret beautiful and memorable...!
