Offering heaps of French charm, this villa stands out for its laid-back designs and stunning countryside location, just a twenty-minute drive away from the sandy shores of Saint-Jean-de-Luz. Spread across two floors, the villa invites an abundance of natural daylight that bounces off the white-washed walls and terracotta flooring in multitudes. We particularly love the open-plan layout of the main living area, which follows an archway through to the dining area, with a cute country-style kitchen just off the side. During the warmer months, you'll likely want to spend most of your time outside in the grassy garden, where you can soak up the gorgeous mountain views peaking over the greenary of the plants and trees surrounding the property. Lounge by the pool on the sun loungers, taking refreshing dips in the water when you need to cool off. After blissful days of relaxation, rustle up some local French delicacies on the plancha-style barbecue to serve at the covered terrace dining area. Continue the soirée with some local wine and a spot of table tennis before hitting the hay in the tranquil bedrooms. When you're ready to do some exploring, hop in the car for day trips out to Saint-Jean-de-Luz,... Biarritz and other local villages of the Basque coastline. After all, this is one of the most sought-after regions in the world when it comes to surf, good seafood and quality gastronomy.

About Biarritz
Part ritzy coastal resort, part laid-back surfer’s hangout, Biarritz’s sandy shores, cornflower skies, and restorative waters have been wooing visitors since the 19th century. While Napoléon III put the city on the map as the Monte Carlo of the Atlantic Coast, Biarritz has traded nobility for neoprene in more recent years to become France's surf capital. Upmarket boutiques and Michelin star restaurants sit casually alongside surf shops and pizza joints...

Host
This home is managed by Oliver
This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Nearly twenty years ago, Oliver and his friend began curating the world's most unique and rustic getaways. Driven by their own unforgettable experience at a chateau, they have grown remarkably since then. Much like Plum, they believe in hand-picked luxury that doesn't break the bank.
