La Co(o)rniche (Pyla sur Mer, Nouvelle Aquitaine) Verified Reviews | Tablet Hotels

"Don’t let the tricky spelling of La Co(o)rniche deter you. Just know it reads as non-standard for French people, too, and move on to the more important details of this rather spectacular hotel, located in the Pilat-Plage region, at the foot of the highest sand dune in Europe. If you haven’t heard of Pilat-Plage, you’re not alone, or you just don’t have any aristocratic French ancestors. Quiet and otherworldly, this is an off-the-beaten-path destination where the sea meets towering dunes and thick pine forest; it was the playground of princes, dukes, even Napoleon III. La Corniche was a Basque-style hunting lodge built in the 1930s, thoroughly updated by none other than Phillipe Starck in 2010 — which is when it became La Co(o)rniche." - Tablet Hotels
