Full Description
Walking distance from all facilities of the lovely town of Saint Georges de Didonne, with its superb long crescent of sandy beach, a favourite for sand yachting and other beach activities, its little port, sailing school and its full range of local shops and services, this property is in an area where peace rules but there are many all-year residents as well as those with holiday homes. The long drive and sizeable plot of almost an acre give an atmosphere of exclusivity to the house. The situation also makes it possible to profit by the proximity of busy Royan, with another long crescent of sandy beach and a great choice of restaurants. Quality shopping is also well catered for and the marina provides safe haven for boat owners wishing to explore the Gironde Estuary as well as the Atlantic coastline. Many cultural activities take place throughout the year but the summer months are particularly rich in this regard with the famous series of classical concerts "Un Violon sur le Sable" taking place annually on the beach. The ferry from Royan to Le Verdon provides the opportunity to go and visit the famous chateaux and vineyards of the Médoc wine region.
Royan has a local railway station providing services to regional large towns, including Angoulême where it is possible to catch a high-speed train reaching Paris in two hours. Local airports in La Rochelle and Bordeaux (about one hour and 90 minutes away respectively) provide flights to many UK and European destinations.
