About this property

Seafront beach house in Le Racou / Argeles-Plage / Le Racou

The small house is located directly on the sandy beach in the third row, directly on the sea. The large sandy beach is guarded in the summer by lifeguards and borders directly on the first rocks of the cliffs of the Pyrenees.

In the village there is a small general store 50 meters away, bakery, newspapers and some small restaurants.

The Mediterranean area in the southernmost part of France right on the border with Spain, with its sandy beaches and rocky coast, with the Pyrenees in the background and a diverse cultural offer.

At this southern end of the 200 kilometer long sandy beach, which starts in the Camargue and ends in Le Racou, you will find the peace to relax or go on excursions, depending on your taste. Le Racou is located on the seafront in a dead end, in which no large streams of tourists pour.

Parfait
Cette location est idéalement située, à quelques mètres de la plage (3ème rangée de maison depuis la mer), pas loin du chemin pédestre qui longe la mer et des petits commerces du Racou. on se sent immédiatement dépaysé par ce petit village au bord de la plage c'est vraiment magnifique. L'intérieur est également très mignon et parfaitement équipé, il y a également une petite terrasse avec une petite vue sur la mer. Attention pour les enfants en dessous de 3/4 ans, il y a un escalier assez raide (mais avec une rembarde) pour accéder à l'étage. Marc est au top que ce soit pour l'accueil et la disponibilité, et Marcus est au petits soins pour le suivi, merci pour ce séjour, nous reviendrons avec plaisir !

Un pequeño paraíso
Marc, el gerente de la casa, fue muy amable y reactivo para organizar nuestra llegada. La casita es muy confortable, varios espacios independientes y dos lindas terrazas, la del jardín es perfecta para los asados y la del tejado para el café en la mañana. Además, Marcus el proprietario deja bicicletas y tablas de surf a disposición. El Racou es un sitio génial para venir en familia. Volveremos sin duda el próximo año ! Marc fue un placer conocerte, muchas gracias por tu amabilidad !! Cristina & Emmanuel

Simple accommodation in a beautiful location
The cottage is as described right between the beach and shops/cafes in Racou Plage, one of our favourite places on this stretch of coast. The check in was easy, we collected keys from the caretaker in one of the apartment blocks over the road and communication with the host was swift and responsive although we didn’t actually meet him. The accommodation was clean but basic and could sleep six if you used the sofa bed downstairs. However, it’s worth noting the lack of privacy as you need to go through one upstairs bedroom to get to the other which was outside off the roof terrace and quite small. Also, there was no door to screen the upstairs bedroom from anyone sleeping downstairs on the sofa bed. That didn’t bother us but might be an issue for some as might the accessibility; steep stairs and an awkward threshold to step over to get to the roof terrace and second bedroom. Having said that, the cottage is in an enviable position and we enjoyed our stay. There are plenty of options for eating out and the coastal path to Collioure right on your doorstep. It was lovely to sit outside and eat on the front terrace but if the weather is bad be aware that there is no dining table inside. The downstairs bathroom was nice with plentiful hot water in the walk in shower. Visitors need to bring their own bedding which caused us a last minute panic as it was not mentioned in the listing but Marcus was very helpful in sorting this out. Overall we loved our stay

Belle découverte
La location correspondait à notre recherche. L'endroit est très typique et idéal avec des enfants. Pas de voiture et la plage à deux pas. C'est paisible et les autochtones très aimables.

We live in Munich and do also visit the house ourselves at least twice a year for holidays.

Why they chose this property

Villa on 2 Floors with terrace and balcony on the beach of Le Racou. Completely renovated in 2017, direct access to the sea with patrolled beach in summertime. Lots of small authentic restaurants and bars around. Racou is a small village at the dead end of the beach road aside from the inrush of tourists.

What makes this property unique

On the beach. Well-kept house in wonderful surroundings.
