This wonderful California-style villa is tucked away in the beautiful pine forest that borders Seignosse golf course; a magnificent stand-alone retreat offering easy access to Hossegor and the world-renowned beaches of the Landaise Coast. The clue’s in the name, and Villa Natura’s clever design really exploits its magical woodland setting; making use of different levels inside and out to give the house a sense of being at one with its beautiful natural surroundings. Light floods into the expansive open-plan living space, stylishly furnished to create a relaxed and convivial atmosphere with plenty of chic touches and not a hint of pretension. The sociable vibe continues in the high-spec kitchen, well-equipped for easy entertaining with an island at its heart, perfect for gathering round to chat as you lay out the local produce for a delicious no-frills lunch.

Understated style is the order of the day; a splash of colour here, a bohemian flourish there, and the occasional nod to the surf-culture for which the area is so famous. Nothing is overdone and the end result is a marvellously restful and extremely comfortable home-from-home. Five elegant bedrooms (one with four beds, ideal for children) are matched by five sleek and contemporary bathrooms making Villa Natura an ideal base for larger groups or two families travelling together. Four of the five bedrooms open onto the garden or have their own balcony with lovely woodland views through and across the canopy of trees, whilst the main terrace, furnished to accommodate a merry multitude, overlooks the gardens and impressive heated pool.

The pool area is well-equipped for serious sun-worshipping or lounging with a book and the covered veranda with soft-seating is a delectably decadent addition to this stunning property which has all the credentials for a house party to remember.

The Local Area

With all the main attractions within a 15-minute cycle ride of the property, it is perfectly possible to enjoy a week at Villa Natura without a car. The area is set-up for cyclists, with an extensive network of trails linking Hossegor to the lake and beaches and everywhere in between. Hossegor’s lagoon is around a 20-minute walk away whilst the fashionable town centre, with its delightful boutiques, restaurants and daily market, takes about 10-minutes by bike. The sandy beaches and rolling waves of the Atlantic are also a gentle 10-minute cycle from the door or pack a picnic and stroll there in around 20 minutes. Whichever way you wander from Villa Natura you’ll find something to inspire you but the joy of returning to this restful spot will never lose its shine.
