Aquitaine Villas, Apartments and Cottages

The wonderful region of Aquitaine reaches from Pointe de Grave at the mouth of the Gironde in the north where several rivers reach the sea, past Bordeaux famous for its wines, to Biarritz popular with the rich and famous in the south. This lovely unspoilt Atlantic coast has only a handful of resorts and is characterized by vast areas of sand dunes and pines stretching from the Pyrenees to Bordeaux. It is in among this nature that you can take a holiday in lovely Aquitaine Villas and Aquitaine Cottages or rent an apartment in Bordeaux. It is also a wonderful experience to stay in a Bordeaux Chateau.

This south west France area is renowned for its wine growing and the Bordeaux wines are some of the most famous and noble in the World. Visitors can take a long, relaxing French lunch in one of the vineyards and star longingly at the acreas of immaculately lined and cultivated grapes. Names such as Latour, Lafitte an Yquem stand out and this is home to the St Emilion grape and the rare and limited availability of the Beaune and Margaux.

The Atlantic coast of Aquitaine has two great stretches of sandy beach: one 100 km long from Soulac to Cap Ferret; and the other 125 km long from Arcachon to Bayonne. This is really a great place to rent a seaside France holiday villa. The massive dunes form a barrier between the sea and a network of lagoons running along the coast; a great place for sailing or water sports.

Bordeaux itself is actually a seaport albeit 100 km form the Atlantic ! This is an elegant city with wide boulevards, public gardens and grand buildings. This is a great place to rent a Bordeaux holiday apartment for a base from which to explore the region of Aquitaine. Whether you want to rent a Aquitaine Villa in the lovely countryside, a Aquitaine Cottage by the sea, or stay in an Apartment in Aquitaine, we have a solution for you.
