The Poitou-Charentes / Vendee / Vendee region

Les Pins du Phare Holiday Villa is located only 400 metres from the beach in the seaside town of La Tranche sur Mer in the Vendée region of France. The Vendée is noted for being the 2nd sunniest part of France after the Mediterranean coast, with over 2000 hours of sunshine each year!

La Tranche is a bustling coastal resort and the villa is located in a quieter residential suburb - only a 10 minute walk from the centre, with all of its bars, restaurants, shops and entertainment. The area is popular with the French and the British and is a great base for surf lovers, as there are some fantastic surfing & body boarding beaches only a short drive away. This is a great area for all outdoor activities - with miles of cycle paths, running tracks and guided walking areas.

Further afield, the cathedral town of Luçon is good for shopping, restaurants and site seeing. The old port of La Rochelle is only an hour away and there you will find a world class Aquarium, great site seeing & shopping and entertainment stretching into the evenings around the harbour.

The La Tranche sur Mer / Le Phare area

In summer, La Tranche comes alive! There is a twice weekly market selling lots of good local produce and often there are summer fayres and antique markets as well. The town has many restaurants, catering for all tastes and seafood is a great speciality - with oysters and mussels freshly landed each morning.

In the evenings, the town has lots of entertainment for all ages, ranging from music & dancing in the bars, to full-blown 'Summer Shows', as well as discos and lots of organised entertainment on the beaches.

The beach at Le Phare is only a short walk from the Villa and this is a great place for water sports - with surf schools, sailing, body boarding and kite surfing all close by. The villa is also near to the pine forests, with its many picnic areas and pathways.

Sea fishing boats leave La Tranche every morning and there is a ferry/site seeing boat that takes you from La Tranche to La Rochelle and Fort Boyard.

“Great pool and beach holiday and a home from home” A well-equipped family home with everything needed for a comfortable and relaxing holiday. Beach is 5 min walk. Boulangerie is a 5 min cycle. Centre of town is also very accessible with lots of... more

“Home from home by the sea” A really well equipped and comfortable house - even had lots of sharp knives and proper wooden chopping boards! Wifi was offline when we arrived due to a recent storm but the property managers couldn't have been more helpful or quick to fix it. We didn't venture further than the beach, the Phare boulangerie and the supermarket, all of which were very close by. The kids especially loved the beach - very clean and spacious with lots of rock pools to investigate at low tide. The sea was a lovely temperature, much warmer than the pool!

“Very well equiped house with nice pool close to beach and town.” Really good house. Kitchen very well equipped for 8 people so really good for families who like to cook. Very good restaurant just a couple of hundred yard away. A little away from other shops/restaurants in a quiet residential area but just a short walk to a spectacular beach. Good well-stocked supermarket (Super U) very close - but sometimes ridiculously busy, especially Saturday afternoon/early evening. La Tranche a comfortable walk away - also extremely busy at times.

“Nice house, great location, chilly pool!” We had a great week in the house. Key pick up worked very well and it was nice to know we could phone someone if there was a problem (which there wasn't). The facilities were excellent and the table tennis was a real bonus for the few days when the weather was poor. Had a shock when I got in the pool but the children did not seem bothered and I just lay and sunbathed rather than swim! All in all it was excellent

“relaxing place to unwind and feel you dont have to go anywere else” Having 2 young children this was ideal, as the house itself is fully equiped, the pool was wonderful and all enjoyed this and with a 2-3 minute walk you could walk to a beach that is sandy, long and... more
