PR1124 Villa St Hilaire

This contemporary villa is beautifully styled and furnished, set in large grounds on the outskirts of the village of Talmont St Hilaire, close to the beaches of the Vendee and the popular seaside resort of Les Sables d’Olonne.  Spacious both inside and out, with a charming courtyard-style outdoor dining terrace, this villa is perfect for young families.

Talmont St Hilaire is a lively village with good facilities, dominated by the local castle ruins of Chateau de Talmont, once the home of Richard the Lionheart, where events are now held during the summer months.

Les Sables d’Olonne has a rich seafaring history and was once home of the pirate Francois d’Olonnais.  Today its connection with the sea is probably best celebrated through the wonderful seafood platters available at many local restaurants, washed down with a glass of local wine. With a climate to rival the Cote d’Azur, beach holidays have become very popular in this region, particularly for those who find the rolling waves of the Atlantic sea exhilarating.  Surfing is popular here of course, but there are many other beach activities, and Veillon Plage is considered one of the finest beaches of the Vendee.
