Lodge Carmine

Lodge Carmine is an inviting family-friendly villa on the Cap-Ferret Peninsula. This luxury Aquitaine accommodation is conveniently placed for discovering the many attractions of the south west of France. The 7-bed villa is walking distance to the shops in the charming village of Canon and it’s right on the beach, with uninterrupted views of the Atlantic Ocean. Lodge Carmine has everything you need to make the most of its enviable beachfront location. There are inflatable kayaks, paddle boards and a canoe for you to use, as well as bikes and even an Austin Mini for exploring the region.

Cap-Ferret is an idyllic holiday location: a peaceful and unspoilt stretch of coastline with scenic nature trails to explore and seafood to savour. The villa is just 5 minutes by car from some of the area’s most beautiful beaches, and some superb surfing and kitesurfing spots on the Atlantic. The nearest airport to the villa is in Bordeaux, which is an hour’s drive. It’s well worth spending time in this dynamic city: it’s known as the wine capital of the world but it’s also home to a fascinating mix of architecture. Half of the city is UNESCO-listed, while some of the world’s best contemporary architects have added striking new buildings to the cityscape.

The villa itself has excellent facilities: an outdoor heated swimming pool with counter-current system, a TV and DVD library, and children’s games. While family-friendly, it’s also incredibly stylish, with Scandi influences enhancing the beach-house chic of the spacious interior. There are terraces on two levels overlooking the garden and the sea, one with a coal barbeque and seating for relaxed al fresco dining.

This exclusive private villa is managed to a very high standard by professionals who provide a pre-arrival concierge service as well as daily housekeeping. Excellent amenities are provided for your stay, including bathrobes, slippers and luxury toiletries.

Families and groups of up to 15 guests will find Lodge Carmine a great choice for a luxury holiday in Aquitaine. With plenty of outdoor space, direct access to the beach, and enticing interior design, it’s the perfect place to unwind and enjoy this wonderful corner of the country.
