Lovely sunsets to watch over the sea, and views of the island of Oleron and the ocean. The picture with the table shows the view of the beach and sea, though it is difficult to make out, I realize.

Close to all water sports, but note not a surfing beach and muddy when the tide is out (hence the lagoon). Excellent. Great for children.

Property number 27: 3 bedrooms & beach (not a favourite of mine)

boring but sensible villa

three double bedrooms & enclosed garden with BBQ etc
500 metres to sandy beach near La palmyre
all mod cons but no linen - you need to bring your own
approx 3 miles from Royan, excellent situ except that you have to cross a little road to get to the beach - safe enough but children would need to be accompanied

e-mail the owner: latriade.filo@wandoo.fr ref.FF27

Having said that it is an excellent situ, the house itself is very plain & done with absolutely no imagination - bare essentials, very serviceable. Fine for a holiday but no "charm" of any kind which is part of the whole point in coming to France. Washing machine, dishwasher, microwave. Breakages deposit 350 Euros ( ridiculous actually).

Property number 29

undemanding little place

beach house on Marennes beach - 50 metres or so
one bedrooms, living/bedroom (sofa-bed) and kitchen-diner
good-sized enclosed garden with BBQ etc
properly equipped but plain and simple

We used to walk George, our Great Dane, on this beach almost every day so it is an area I know well. (He died while we were in Istanbul a few months ago - he was 12, which is really old for a Great Dane.) Nice little promenade with a few bars & small restaurants, lots of sand. Around there are houses similar to this one and a couple of camp-sites. Excellent for families with children of any age but absolutely not up-market in any way.
