Relaxing holidays in your Biscarrosse holiday accommodation

Parentis-en-Born lies just a few kilometres from Biscarrosse, a destination known for the wide range of water sports on offer. In Grands Lacs, no less than 4km of beaches await! Sunbathing, surfing or canoeing: whatever you’re into, there’s something for everyone.

Biscarrosse, the seaside resort that charms so many guests each year, is also the seaplane capital. A town rich with cultural heritage, Biscarrosse is home to several museums dedicated to its history and development: discover the seaplane museum and the museum of local customs. The little church of Saint Martin, steeped in reverence and charm, will captivate even the most mystic, while fans of old stones admire the 15th century architecture. 

20 minutes from the town centre, the village of Biscarrosse-Plage offers holiday makers a change of pace from the hustle and bustle of city living. On the beach, there’s no shortage of ice creams and paninis. 

Stop off in Mimizan, the cutest of all the villages in the pays de Born. Get back to nature on the tourist route for the Etang de la Mailloueyre, where young and old alike will marvel at the local flora and fauna. As for the beach, it can be eerily quiet at times, with the wind beating down on the huge dunes. This corner of the Landes region is impossible to forget! Fancy climbing to the top of the biggest sand dune in the world to enjoy amazing views of the surrounding areas? Head for the dune du Pilat, it’ll take your breath away. 

In red and white!
Tradition essential, Parentis-en-Born also organises their own feria! Red and white play an important part in the folklore costumes. So, if you’re invited to a traditional celebration and told to get your red and white ready, don’t get mixed up, your hosts aren’t talking about wine! 

Residence Le Domaine des Grands Lacs***: your seaside holiday accommodation

 "Oh time, suspend your flight!" Lamartine would have loved the Biscarrosse-Parentis lake, a peaceful 3400 hectare stretch of water. Unless you’re looking for some entertainment of course! The entire family will be left with fond memories of the several theme parks dedicated to little adventurers in the making. Plan your day at Bisc’Aventure or go and splash around the inflatables at AquaPark. 

You can also do some fishing, try out various water sports, or simply wander round the port in Parentis-en-Born, a 5 minutes’ walk away from the Residence Le Domaine des Grands Lacs***. Nearby your Biscarrosse accommodation, those who love to lounge will also enjoy visiting the Cazaux lake, with its long beaches and hot sands. 

Don’t miss the Marqueze Eco Museum in Sabres, just 30 minutes from your residence. Nestled in the heart of the Landes de Gascogne Regional Nature Park, it can only be reached via the tourist train, of which the cars, classed as a historical monument themselves, date back to the early 1900s!

Then, head for the bay of Arcachon, and maybe even climb to the lighthouse of cap Ferret? We hope you like oysters, because here, they serve them all kinds of ways! And you can dig in without worrying about the calories: as the chemin de Saint Jacques de Compostelle, or Way of St. James, runs along Arcachon Bay. You can walk for miles and burn off those midday crepinettes. 

Unless you prefer cycling? You’re in luck, as a section of the Velodyssee runs from Biscarosse-Plage to Parentis-en-Born (25km), and then Parentis-en-Born to Mimizan-Plage (31km).

Residence Le Domaine des Grands Lacs***: where water and the natural world come first

Located nearby several saltwater pools, the town of Biscarrosse is committed to the conservation of its environment and natural resources. Your holiday residence in Parentis-en-Born is also working to conserve our planet through responsible acts. You too can play your part. During your stay in Biscarrosse, you’ll use the recycling area set up by the Residence Le Domaine des Grands Lacs***. 

The Vacanceole Group partners exclusively with residences who provide guests with holidays in nature that are truly environmentally friendly. Biscarrosse and its surroundings enjoy a wide network of cycling trails (starting with our very own cycling route at the Residence Le Domaine des Grands Lacs***), which means you can leave your car in the car park. Something for your little Mike Horns in the making, they’re just dying to set off and explore the surrounding forests! Save our bees and the Biscarrosse dragonflies, by playing your part in sustainable tourism and treating your family to a responsible holiday.
