For buying and selling property in Chateau d'Olonne
Chateau d'Olonne and its linked resort of Les Sables d'Olonne offer the perfect spot from which to enjoy sun, sea and sand. In the ever popular Vendée department of the Pays de la Loire region, the town has the glorious beaches and sunny climate common to many parts of western France. It's ideal for family holidays, as the resort of Les Sables d'Olonne offers a range of leisure activities for all ages.
Chateau d'Olonne and Les Sables d'Olonne are so closely linked, both physically and metaphorically, that they share amenities. This means you have access to plenty of shops, supermarkets, banks, bars and restaurants. In addition there are schools, medical facilities like doctors, dentists and pharmacies and also all essential services. As the town is a popular tourist destination too, you'll also find lots to do, especially in the summer.
Although the town isn't particularly renowned for its historical monuments, there are some buildings worth seeing if you're interested in history and heritage. These include the residence of Fenestreau, the town's Church of Saint Hilaire and some remains of a Benedictine abbey. The natural heritage, however, is a knockout. From woodland trails to rocky coves and lovely beaches, this is a paradise for walkers.
If you've chosen to buy property or to holiday in this area, it probably goes without saying that you will want to spend time at the seaside. And of course, that's so easy here. Whether you love quiet rocky coves and pebble beaches or prefer to hit the busier parts of the resort of Les Sables d'Olonne, there's no shortage of possibilities to suit your taste. The beaches are family friendly, and the resort offers activities such as water sports, tennis, children's play areas and more. Adults and families are also able to choose from a wide variety of bars and restaurants to enhance the whole experience. The local cuisine is tasty and offers excellent seafood, and the region is also known for its fine grade sea salt.
If you're looking for places to visit nearby, you'll find more than enough. The city of Nantes is a wonderful place to spend a day exploring the heritage and culture, and offers wonderful shopping too. If you've got kids (or even if you haven't), time spent at the theme park of Puy de Fou is an unforgettable experience.
You can fly to La Rochelle, Nantes or Poitiers. The town has its own railway station with links to TGV routes too, so letting the train take the strain is another viable option. Drivers can find Chateau d'Olonne using the D32/D160/D939 roads, the A87 being the nearest auto route. The nearest ferry port is that of St Malo.
France's Atlantic Coast often commands high prices, so many people find they have to give upon their dreams of a place by the sea. However, as Chateau d'Olonne is the slightly inland part of the resort, property there can be a little more affordable than you might expect.
