Nestled in the countryside of Normandy, this characterful home is a rural retreat with fireside armchairs, exposed wood beams, and a winding staircase. As well as the outdoor dining table, you'll have access to a shared swimming pool in the summer months. However, the sloped ceilings and connected bedrooms in the attic may be a better fit for kids than couples. Make sure you hire a car and plan a drive to Caen, thirty minutes away. Feel like a beach day instead? Take a road trip to the Plage de Cabourg, just twenty minutes by car.

We can see why this French country estate has been featured in a raft of interior design magazines. Inspired by mid-century modern architects, the layout, furnishings and finishes are not what you necessarily expect from these traditional buildings, but they complement them perfectly. There’s a main house and an attached barn, as well as two independent guest suites (one also has a sauna). Step into the gardens and you’ll find a wood-fired Nordic bath and a pétanque court. There’s also a greenhouse growing seasonal crops and an outdoor kitchen with a wood-fired pizza oven. Set in a small village within the Vexin Nature Reserve and just an hour from Paris, you’ll have plenty to see and do during your stay.

Hidden Splendour

With its prime location just steps away from the golden sandy beach and within walking distance to shops, cafes, and tourist attractions, Seaside Serenity provides an idyllic retreat for beach lovers and sightseers alike.

A happy French beach holiday is made all the more special when you stay at this gorgeous French chateau. It’s based just a short stroll away from the stunning Racou beach, where you can enjoy a dip in the Mediterranean, sunbathe on the sandy shore, or sip on a glass of champagne in a beach bar. The home sits nestled away in a peaceful spot, surrounded by leafy green gardens, giving you a serene retreat to return to after days spent in the more vibrant parts of town.

We adore how this home is packed with character – ornate tiled floors, elegant light fixtures, traditional artwork and chic French furniture give it a je ne sais quoi that’s rare to find. There’s plenty of places to make lots of memories here – the beautiful outdoor pool provides the perfect place to cool off in the sunshine, while the terrace invites you to sip on sundowners while you watch the sky turn pink on warm summer evenings. For autumn and winter stays, you can cosy up around the fireplace with a French hot chocolate – drunk out of a bowl, of course – or spend evenings stuck into a good book in the library with a glass of wine.

This rustic-chic apartment, located in the centre of Avignon, packs in the Provençal charm by the bucketload. The floors are made up of vintage tiles and original wooden boards, both aged like fine wine. Look up, and you'll note the stunning exposed timber frame of the building. All this character and period charm is sparked into life by the occasional modern touch, with elegant mid-century-inspired furniture, bright pops of colour and a minimalist, modern kitchen. Avignon is a city with a village feel. Step out, and you're just a few hundred metres from the storied Les Halles market and the Place de l'Horloge. It's the cultural epicentre of Provence and attracts art lovers and history buffs alike. Pair its cultural cred with lush parks, riverside strolls, and plenty of streetside cafes, and you've got an irresistible combo for a city break.

Set amidst the French countryside, this gorgeous retreat offers the French countryside experience with an added touch of Mediterranean charm. You'll be blown away by the quaint, idyllic scenes found both inside and outside of this home. We particularly love the enormous, curved Orangerie style backdoor which paves the way to the magical garden setting featuring a shaded alfresco dining area, day beds and a crystal clear pool – divine for a refreshing dip during the height of summer in the south of France. Back inside, the stunning open-plan kitchen-living area ensures a sociable stay for the whole group to enjoy together. The kitchen in particular will excite guests who are fond of cooking as the large central island makes it perfect for group cooking sessions. Why not book for a private chef to come and give you French cooking lessons? You'll also find that the local area allows guests to experience French culture at its finest. Mornings are for market visits here, so head on down into the local village, just a three-minute walk away where you'll find a lady named Patricia who sells fresh fruit and vegetables every Monday and Wednesday morning in the central square, Place de la Fontaine. Better still, visit on a Saturday as this is the main market day for the villagers to stock up on fresh meat, fish, cheese, truffles, wine and flowers. It's safe to say that such a warm and friendly atmosphere is hard to come by in France, if you're not in a rural village like this one.

Nice to haves

Situated in the Lot department, just south of the Dordogne River, this cosy 18th-century home is a wonderful place from which to explore the enchanting Occitanie region. 

Inside, original timber beams and stone walls have been lovingly restored to create a warm and inviting ambience. We loved the convivial living space with its squashy sofa and fully-equipped kitchen – ideal for those who like to flex their culinary muscles. When you’re not playing board games at the dining table, you’ll be out on the terrace, sipping a café au lait and watching the day pass by. 

Spend afternoons playing badminton before cooling off with a swim in the private pool. Later on, take the bicycles out for a spin through the surrounding countryside or why not jump in the car and explore the quaint medieval town of Sarlat-la-Canéda – it’s only a thirty-minute drive away. 

Clementine Cottage

Converted from a fourteenth-century nunnery in a village near the historic town of Poitiers, The Priory Tower is surrounded by valleys, ponds, and woods in all directions. It’s a quiet area, with a peace disturbed only by the occasional church bells, or birdsong. The local markets around here are overflowing with produce (this part of France remains an agricultural centre), and if you want to get away from civilisation, there are all manner of trails, lakes and rivers to explore. As a home, The Priory Tower feels like a part of France that got left in the past, away from the bustle and stress of modern life, and that’s quite a special feeling.


The Priory Tower

Heated Pool

This modern home blends in beautifully with its surroundings. The natural stone-clad exterior hides a plush interior filled with soft, velvet couches, wooden floors, an open-hearth fireplace and bedrooms that look as if they belong in a boutique hotel. There’s a grand dining table with sumptuous chairs where you can enjoy a home-cooked meal prepared in the slick black-and-white kitchen. Outside, the heated swimming pool and sun deck have views over grassy fields to where the Loire meets the wild Atlantic. The best part is that you’re just 100 metres from the sea and long, lazy days on the beach. On rare cooler evenings, light up the fireplace and settle in for a movie marathon.

Boasting quintessential French coastal charm, this quaint cottage in Langrune-sur-Mer invites guests to enjoy a seaside escape less than a kilometre away from the beach. 

Original features, including exposed stone walls and wooden beams, inject heaps of character into the space that is otherwise dressed in neutral tones and contemporary designs. We love the unique aquamarine corner sofa – which makes the perfect perching spot and somewhere to put your feet up after a day's adventures in Normandy. Meanwhile, the courtyard outside presents an idyllic spot for picnics and quiet afternoons reading in the sunshine. 

Stroll down to the coastal shores of the beach in just a few minutes, where you'll pass bars, shops and restaurants to make the most of in the local amenities too. The perfect location for wandering around or going on bike rides, the laid-back way of life here will have you feeling refreshed in no time. And with a variety of outdoor activities available, why not try your hand at sailing, fishing, windsurfing, paddleboarding or horse riding? 




Coastal Wandering

This lovely home can be found in Gruissan, a picturesque town in the south of France. If you’re hoping for white sand beaches and beautiful scenery, this is an excellent choice of location. Best of all, it’s home to this stylish abode. 

This home ticks every box when it comes to fuss-free holiday homes. It’s small but perfectly formed, with a cosy living room that’s the heart of the home. Children will love sleeping on the mezzanine level, where they can have their own space while still being close to the grown-ups. 

The outside space here is sure to win over everyone, though. You’ll have access to the shared swimming pool, which is a dream to dive into on hot, sunny days. You can sunbathe alongside the pool, dipping a toe in every now and then, or choose to soak up the sun on one of two terraces. There’s shade aplenty if you’d rather curl up with a book and a lemonade, too. 

Plage de Matteille is less than a kilometre away, where you can splash in the shallows and build sandcastles. It’s also easy to stroll to the harbour promenade – it’s a lovely way to spend an evening. Hikers will be thrilled to be within reach of the trails up Massif de la Clape, which boasts some spectacular views. There’s something for everyone here.
