Cottage 2 Lovely peaceful Cottage on golf course, 5min from sea, surf and lake

This cottage, 2km from the sea, is in the heart of Lacanau Golf Complex - a golf course with both an 18 and a 9 hole course. Set in a pine forest, the combination of the sea air and the fresh smell of the pine make this a very healthy and relaxing environment.
The cottage Is very well appointed,, sleeping 5 comfortably.

Accommodation
The accommodation downstairs consists of a kitchen, living area and shower room. The open plan galley kitchen and living area has French windows leading to a patio and the back garden.
The shower room has a shower, washbasin and loo and houses a washer/dryer too.
The acommodation upstairs consists of the main bedroom, the mezzanine area and the bathroom.
The bedroom has a double bed and fitted wardrobe. The mezzanine area has three single beds and is ideal as an area for children / teenagers. The bathroom has a bath, shower attachment, washbasin and loo.
Bed linen and towels are available at a supplementary cost

The cottage is in a terrace of 12 cottages & apartments forming part of an L- shaped development built by a Swiss company in 1982. Nestling in a pine forest in the centre of the 18 hole golf course which is part of Lacanau Golf Complex. Cycle tracks abound & weave through the forest.

Lacanau-Ocean, with four wonderful sandy beaches and surf, is 30 miles NW of Bordeaux. It is on the international surf circuit and is an ideal family holiday destination. Close to the beach, lake & wine region of the Medoc with its famous chateaux, this area provides the ideal centre for those wanting a sporty holiday, for those keen to visit the wine region, or for those who just want to unwind and relax in this healthy environment. It is also an ideal retreat out of season for those who love natural surroundings and empty beaches

Lacanau Lake is 5 minutes drive away. There is a sandy area where you can picnic and children can play. A shallow area of the lake is roped off and supervised by lifeguards during the day in peak season so that young children can swim in safety.

Cottage 1 & 2 are next door to each other and can be rented individually or both together.

The sea and lake are about 5 minutes drive away offering great opportunities for surfing and multiple beach and water sports. The cottages are in the centre of a golf course about 2 minutes walk from the Club House and the first tee providing an ideal location for the keen golfer. There is an excellent tennis and squash complex within easy walking distance and many people hire bikes to enjoy the numerous cycle tracks meandering through the forest.The renowned Medoc wine region is close by, offering visits to the many vineyards for wine-tasting. The magnificent historical city of Bordeaux is approximately 50 km /one hour's drive

Lacanau Océan is famous for its surf and it hosts the French Pro in August which attracts surfers from around the world. There is a surf club which teaches all the sports relating to the surf and everyone has a lot of fun in the waves. The many beautiful sandy beaches, stretching as far as the eye can see, are a perfect venue for playing beach games, kite surfing/flying, sunbathing, watching surfers or just watching the world go by.
Restaurants abound during the summer season and Lacanau has several supermarkets and an interesting weekly market on a Wednesday giving plenty of choice to holidaymakers.

These 2 cottages are in the centre of a golf course, providing a base for your holiday. They are compact, but well equipped and the rooms and gardens are small, as you would expect to find in cottage-style houses.
The patios of both cottages provide a tranquil haven even in peak season and many a happy hour is spent relaxing in the filtered sunshine.
Lien is available is at extra cost but must be request as a Supplementary charge.

A worn property that's seen better days
My family and I stayed in cottage #2 for a week, and although we enjoyed our time in the cottage, I wish I had spent more time searching for a nicer rental property for us to stay in. For the price, I expected a slightly higher level of quality. The cottage was not particularly clean. There was dust on the exposed pipes in the bathrooms and elsewhere, the walls need a coat of paint, mold is growing in the main bedroom ceiling and the carpet upstairs is spotted with stains. The bed in the main bedroom is sagging, uncomfortable and needs to be replaced. When I lifted the mattress to make the bed, there was so much dust under the bed, it looked as if the bed had never been moved and vacuumed under. The bathrooms are dark, windowless and cramped (there's a reason the owner doesn't provide photos of the bathrooms.) The description of the cottage is misleading. Although there might be a tumble dryer in cottage #1, none exists in cottage #2. Bed linens are provided, but the beds were not made. "Linen is available for hire on request" means there are no bath towels or kitchen towels. I should have inqured about this before we arrived, but since it's something I've never encountered at any rental that I've ever stayed at, it was a bit of a surprise. I'm accustomed to renting beach towels, but never bath towels or kitchen towels. Upon arriving and realizing there were no towels, I requested them from Janet and Elsie. They didn't arrive until late the next afternoon, so noone was able to take showers that morning. Janet waived the charge due to the confusion, but nevertheless, if you rent this place, you should expect to pay a fee for towels. In addition, be prepared to pay the taxe de séjour (resort tax). This is an extra charge that you will be asked to leave in cash on the table when you depart. On this trip, we also stayed at another rental for a week. The taxe de séjour was already bundled into the price, which, by the way, was quite a lot less than what we paid here, the house was more elegant, more comfortable, cleaner and there was no controversy over towels. The cottage is pleasantly located in a pine forest with close bicycle access to the beach, the lake and the town. In my opinion, though, the description of the property needs to be more accurate and the owner needs to be more transparent about the hidden costs.

Un court passage bien sympathique
Un court passage bien sympathique dans ce cottage calme bien situé au sein du golfe, à moins de 10mn du lac ou de l’ocean. Janet, la propriétaire, a été très arrangeante et le cottage possède tout le nécessaire pour un bon séjour.

Séjour lacanau golf
Belle expérience au sein de la propriété de Janet au cœur du golf et en pleine forêt de pins. L’environnement est calme et agréable. Les échanges avec l’hôte ont été très simples. La maison est bien équipée et à quelques minutes en voiture de l’ocean.
