We live in a residential area close to all amenities (food shops, local market on Saturday, supermarkets, bakeries, banks, ... tramway, bus). Very easy to reach what you want !

The house is strategically located to go to the center of Bordeaux (20/25 min walk, 10/15 by tram or bus ) and to explore the surroundings by car too (30 min drive for St Emilion, Medoc, and the famous castles & wineries ; 45 min for Dune du Pilat, Arcachon and the ocean for surfing or tasting oysters ..). You can also use the bus just next to our house (15 min to go to the central station to take the train to Arcachon).

Bordeaux is a city with a rich historical heritage, particularly from the 18th century, classified in the UNESCO World Heritage Site. The city is renewed for its cobbled streets (the biggest pedestrian area In France), stone architecture (Middle Age and 18th), its gastronomic delights, and unforgettable wine experiences. You will appreciate the "cafés" & terraces, many restaurants and various museums (La cité du vin, le bassin des lumières, le musée d'Aquitaine, musée des arts décoratifs, ..). The quaysides with their impressive 18th facades and the emblematic "Place de la Bourse" are very nice for walking, riding a bike, rollerblade, skate, and even refreshing in the "Miroir d'eau" for young children.

You can also discover Perigord, (1h30 drive) registered in the world patrimony of the Unesco for the riches of its prehistorical caves (the famous cave of Lascaux with paleolithic drawings, ..) and the Dordogne with its old authentical villages (Rocamadour, Sarlat, . ), its castles and rivers. The "Pays Basque" in the South could be another purpose of your trip too (the seaside resort, Biarritz, with powerful waves which attract the world's top surfers or Saint Jean de Luz / 2 hours).
