"Tucked away in a quiet cove off the Atlantic, half an hour west of Bordeaux, the nine-room Villa La Tosca is the sort of place that makes you wish you’d been born elsewhere — and perhaps to better circumstances. It’s like a vision of aristocratic leisure, translated for the 21st century and set in a tiny coastal town in southwestern France. The gardens are well-kept, the views of the sea expansive, and the breezy verandahs plentiful. In short it’s a taste of the good life, a low-key seaside hideaway at just the right distance from the more heavily touristed sections of the wine country." - Tablet Hotels
