The stretch of coast between Calais and the River Somme (Cote d'Opale) can lay claim to having some of the best beaches in France, with miles of unspoilt sand and endless horizons where the sea seems to melt into the sky. Try the popular Stella Plage or Berck Plage for a stroll - or a dip if you are feeling brave.The ferry port at Calais is an hour and 10 minutes by car whilst the famous beach resort of Le Touquet is close by, as is the medieval hilltop town of Montreuil with its renowned restaurants.At a glance:Bedrooms: 6Bathrooms: 3Receptions: 2Habitable space: 284m2Plot size: 5,477m2Taxe fonciere: TBCDPE rating: FBroadbandHeating: Oil fired central heating & wood firesNeighbours: nearbyDistance to shops: 5kmDistance to coast: 35minsDistance to ferry port: 1hr 10 minsPlease note: Agency fees are included in the advertised price and are payable by the purchaser.
