Cap Ferret, French Atlantic Coast, France

Villa Lili

10 guests · 5 bedrooms · 5 beds · 4 baths

If you like Cap Ferret, then you will fall in love with Villa Lili and its breathtaking view of the Bassin d'Arcachon. All in natural colors and brightness, this house is perfect for meeting up with friends and family. After breakfast on the terrace, grab your bike and head for the aisles of the unmissable Cap-Ferret market. For lunch, gather around a good meal prepared on the barbecue or on the plancha, after taking a dip in the villa's swimming pool. At the end of the afternoon, have a stroll in the fishing village of Le Canon, where time has stood still. The region is known for its tasty oysters, so treat yourself to a dinner by the Atlantic in one of the typical wooden huts where summer tourists and locals meet to admire the authentic experience of a sunset over the ocean.

Don't miss

The most delicious almond croissants and pain au raisins from the P’tite Boulangerie du Ferret.

Where to eat

For lunchtime head to one of the many oyster cabanes that line the Cap. Each one has a little garden or decking overlooking the water and serves the same thing: platters of huîtres, crevettes and pate as well as white or rose wine. My favourites are Chez Boulan and La Cabane d’Hortense.
Lunch at L’Hotel de la Plage
For a real treat or special occasion, take a water taxi across the bassin to Philippe Starck’s La Co(o)rniche hotel in Arcachon. The views from the terrace are spectacular.

What to do

There’s plenty to do in Cap Ferret, whether the sun decides to shine or not. If the weather is good, rent a boat for the day and whizz around the Bassin, heading over to the islands which are submerged at high tide — we’ll take a picnic and volleyball net and set up camp for the afternoon.

How to get there

EasyJet flies from several UK airports to Bordeaux. Cap Ferret is then an hour's drive. Eurostar has a regular service from London to Paris, from where a train to Bordeaux takes three and a half hours.
