Description
Everything was built in the typical neo-South African architectural style. The colors black and white were chosen by Coco Chanel, the Duke’s girlfriend at the time.
In the seventies, the former stables were converted into individual houses, which are completely separate homes with their own entrances: Maison Mimosa, Maison Camélia, and, behind them, Maison Duchesse. The interior is comfortable and well equipped, pleasantly furnished and decorated, and offers space for 6 people in 2 bedrooms for 2 and 4 people.
It includes a living/dining room with a modern and well-equipped kitchen and a shower room with toilet. The floor area is 60 m².
In front of the house, a terrace with garden furniture and a fixed barbecue in a large garden, well maintained and fully fenced, divided into 2 halves for Maison Camélia and the semi-detached house Mimosa. Bed linen is not included in the rental price, but can be provided for an additional fee.
A maximum of 2 medium-sized dogs are welcome, 1 dog (or cat) is included in the rental price.
For the 2nd pet you pay a small surcharge.
Only in the high season (July and August) is the minimum rental period 7 days, with arrival and departure on Saturday. In the low and shoulder seasons, short-term rentals of at least 4 nights, as well as arrival and departure on a different weekday, are possible.
For the cooler seasons, the house is equipped with electric heaters in all rooms.
Maison Camélia has received the maximum 3-star rating from the Tourism Office (Office Intercommunal de Tourisme) of Mimizan.

Location and surroundings of object
Peace and quiet around the house, the sea, lake and forest nearby, and many opportunities for various sports activities:
In front of the house is the golf course of Mimizan, the entrance only 200m from the house.
A round of golf or practice on the driving range are offered at reasonable rates.
Rowing, sailing and fishing are possible on Lake Aureilhan, only 250m behind the house, hiking in the forest or along the very beautiful promenade "Route Fleurie" by the lake. A bike path in front of the house leads to the beach in Mimizan-Plage and other villages in the area. Most guests bring bicycles, but they can also be rented in several shops.
An “Adventure Park” with zipline and mini-golf is only 200m away from the house along the path, near the entrance to the golf course.
The beaches of Mimizan-Plage are very close: 5 km by car or 4 km by bicycle. Here you will find all services, supermarkets, shops, medical center and the market on Friday morning.
For holidaymakers seeking a quieter atmosphere, we recommend the sunny pre- and post-season and especially September / October for the beautiful autumn colors, when the sea and land temperatures are still very pleasant.
Day trips are recommended to the seaside at Biarritz, Bayonne, St. Jean de Luz, the beautiful mountain region of the Pyrenees, San Sebastian in Spain, the Basque Country, and of course the wine regions near Bordeaux, St. Emilion, and Armagnac.

Gabi S. from Jülich
Holiday home
The cottage has a very large garden, which is ideal with dogs. By bike you can reach the beach through a wonderful bike path . A road runs past the house, but after a few days it was no longer a nuisance because the garden is very large. The garden is shared with the neighbour, but the terrace is well separated. The house is well equipped and the proximity to the lake is fantastic. We felt very comfortable and would come back again!

From Swann's World
Elegant beach cottage in cool Coco-Chanel design in Charlie Chaplin's former horse stable. In the afternoons, the landlord comes by like a character from Swann's world from the golf course across the street and tells stories of Coco, Charlie or Rudyard Kipling, the Jungle Book author, after whose African model the nearby hunting lodge was built postcolonially, to which you stroll comfortably. Don't forget your golf clubs!
