With an authentic French country-chic feel expertly coupled with all the contemporary mod-cons you would expect, this gorgeous gîte provides you with the perfect base from which to set out and explore the many delights of its picturesque surroundings. 

Nestled in the rolling countryside of Mortagne-sur-Sèvre and boasting a large, south-facing garden complete with gently bubbling brook running through it, the outdoor areas of this home strongly influence its interiors – which themselves exude the rustic old-world charm and light-dappled cosiness typical of rural France.

Whether it's your first cup of coffee out on the terrace in the morning, or a flavourful sip of wine overlooking the water as dinner simmers away in the kitchen, this home invites you to drink in everything which makes this area and the way of life it fosters so unique.

Fenced Property

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.

Fire Extinguisher

Situated in a quiet village close to the Brittany coastline, there's an air of nobility to the handsome white facade of this townhouse surrounded by idyllic grounds and this impression continues behind the front door.

High ceilings and tall windows make for palatial proportions in many of the rooms, especially the lavish bedrooms and the living room with its chandelier and vintage-style furnishings. By contrast, other spaces have been modernised, like the chic white kitchen which is plenty large enough for cooking up Breton-inspired feasts.

As well as scoring high in the style stakes, there's plenty to keep guests entertained here. On the top floor, a games room with a pool table and board games is sure to be welcome on rainy afternoons, while the three terraces, large garden and hot tub will all see lots of use when the weather's a little warmer.

In local Muzillac, there's a good choice of restaurants and bars a short walk from the home, while you won't be short of ways to fill a day in the wider area.  Beaches along the Brittany coastline are easily reached in the car, as are Brière Natural Regional Park and the city of Vannes.

Self Check-in / Check-out

Stay at this 19th century chateau in the Loire valley for an experience of history and extravagance. Large enough for family gatherings and celebrations with friends, the home is grandiose both inside and out. Built by a nobleman two centuries ago, this chateau has been restored to perfection and the grounds are just as impressive and magnificent in terms of upkeep and scale. Spend days cycling around the property. Let the kids fish in the lake or dip in the pool, and marvel at the animals on site. For the adults, book a tennis lesson or in-house massage in the drawing room and enjoy that French joie de vivre topped off with local food and wine. Look out for shooting stars and promise to all meet again at this property in the future (you wouldn’t be the first).

Nice to haves

Sitting within a 100-hectare estate that dates back to the 18th century, this marvellous home was once the residence of an important general during conflicts following the French Revolution. Given this impressive heritage, it's perhaps no surprise to learn that the interior still retains a sense of grandeur. However, don't confuse this with dusty and staid – as the locals might say, there's a joie de vivre to be discovered at the address.

Much of this is down to the interior design, which mixes together antique furnishings, bold print wallpaper and portraits hanging in every room. We love the lavish dining table set under a chandelier, but also appreciate the modern additions as well – we're fairly sure the aforementioned general didn't have the games room to keep him occupied while he was holed up here, but we're willing to stand corrected.

It's a similar story outside. The well-kempt gardens and rosebeds make for a charming backdrop as you stroll about the grounds, but you're also more than welcome to take a dip in the swimming pool or play a match or two of tennis on the private court. There's equipment for badminton or volleyball too if they're more your sport.

There's a lot to discover in the surrounding Vendée, as well. The sweeping beaches on the Pays de la Loire coastline start from as close as 30km away, while galleries and restaurants in the vibrant city of Nantes lie 43km to the north. A little closer to home, the nearest village is 2.5km away and has a pair of bakeries, a supermarket and a restaurant to tide you over.

Beautifully modernised and an architectural dream, this home will be the backdrop to a memorable stay. Nature is brought indoors tastefully through materials and textures, reminiscent of the stunning surrounding garden and beach on your doorstep. Downstairs is open plan and flooded with light – the ideal space for entertaining a large gathering of loved ones. Towering skylights offer a peak at the stars as you relax in front of the log burner on those cooler evenings. Each bedroom is clean and modern with a soft chalk colour palette, tastefully breaking up the serenity of white. We love how each room has a beam of French sunlight creating stunning shadow patterns through the unique windows. 

During summer, enjoy breakfast alfresco on your classic wooden terrace. The deck chairs are tucked around the corner to pop your feet up if you fancy a slower morning, feeling the gentle breeze on your face. Residing moments away from the glistening coastline means all the seaside entertainment is at your fingertips. You won’t need to leave your garden to have a memorable afternoon, however, with a ping pong table and other activities at home to enjoy. Pour yourself a glass of fine French wine, fire up the barbecue and you'll be in for a wonderful stay.

Renovated in 2012, this countryside family home is perched at the top of a hill and boasts beautiful south-facing lawns with abundant wildlife in the garden. Spend your days whiling away in the sunshine by the private swimming pool, outside dining area or over a game of boules out on the extensive lawn. Inside, you'll find just as much to be excited about as stylish contemporary designs pave the way to blissful relaxation. So unplug, unwind and reconnect with yourselves, as from this quintessential French countryside home – "le bonheur de vivre" (the art of living) is encouraged. 

Situated 25 kilometres away from the sea, take days out to the nearest sandy shores (Bares Beach), just a twenty-minute drive away. Within closer proximity, visit the sports harbour (8 kilometres away), a nine-hole golf course (5 kilometres away) and a children's playground – only 200 metres from your front door. Not to mention, there is an array of walking paths to be explored, offering fresh air and plenty of stunning views of the local nature.

Located in the centre of Nantes, this stylish apartment is an idyllic base for a family or group of friends seeking a cultural break in a beautiful city. Peruse the shops and restaurants along Rue Maréchal Joffre, while being a short walk from the Musée d'Arts de Nantes, the Botanical Garden, and the Château des ducs de Bretagne.

Stepping inside, the apartment has a Parisian feel running through it, with traditional wooden floorboards, ornate ceiling mouldings, and wrought-iron Juliet balconies. We love how your host has transformed the home with a modern aesthetic – from the marble fireplaces to the vibrant artworks, stylish furnishings and curated houseplants – it's the perfect open-plan space to return to after a day of exploring. 

There's a desk space for those working from home, while the bedrooms are rustic and cosy, ensuring a restful night's sleep. Start your day with freshly-brewed coffee and a croissant around the elegant dining table as you plan the day’s itinerary, then step out to get going right away.

Nantes Modernist

Immaculately dressed in sultry shades of blue, teal and grey – golden accents inject a touch of luxury to the otherwise modern interiors of the apartment. We particularly love the parquet flooring and high ceilings that remind us of the building's heritage with added charm. With ample space for up to six guests, from here, you'll enjoy an authentic French experience in the heart of Nantes. 

Stroll out to the Natural History Museum, located just 20 metres away. Meanwhile, slightly further, you'll find Dobrée Museum –100 metres away and the famous square of Place Graslin – only 250 metres away. With a wealth of quality shopping, wining, and dining opportunities in this central spot – trying the local French culinary delights is somewhat of a given here. And if you'd like to take advantage of the fabulous kitchen of the apartment, the neighbourhood brags bakeries, a fishmonger, wine shops and cheese shops where you can pick produce up to prepare at home.

Fine finishes and elegant touches abound in this home, where contemporary decor meets with the historic charm of Nantes. 

Cooking breakfast in the open kitchen is a delight, with everything you might need is close to hand. Dine together at the oh-so-chic industrial-style dining table.
