Overlooking the rolling vineyards of the Duras, the Jolie Maison enjoys 360 degree views of the surrounding picturesque countryside. An area renowned for its wine and gastronomy, the ancient neighbouring bastide towns of Montsegur and Duras host weekly markets and offer a good selection of cafes, bars and restaurants, whilst further afield, for the serious wine connoisseurs, is the renowned Bordeaux region, home of the world heritage sites of Bordeaux and St Emilion, and an indulgence of world class chateaux and vineyards.
There are plenty of local activities from cycling and kayaking to an excellent golf course nearby, whilst for those seeking the sea, the Bassin d’Arcachon boasts a long sandy coastline with a choice of beach resorts, and the Dune de Pyla, the highest sand dune in Europe.
