The Aquitaine / Dordogne / Landes region
One of the greatest assets of Aquitaine is it's unique network of cycling tracks. 500 km of cycling, trailing the coast line and the Landaise pine forest. The Aquitaine coastline is one long beach of fine sand and rocky coves. 250 km in a single stretch. Wouldn't want to walk that in a hurry. From 20 minutes to 1h20 from the chalet. ...and so much more - skiing, walking, surfing, swimming, hiking, cycling, horse riding, golfing, shopping - all within a few minutes drive.
The weather here is mild all year, very warm in summer months.
