It is possible to take the Eurostar from London – DAX. It takes about 7 hours and there is a change in Paris but is otherwise direct and relaxing!
From Dax, it is a Oui (bus) ride to Capbreton, unless we can organise to pick you and drive you if we know early in advance.
You can also rent a car in Dax across form the station and be more mobile!
Drive

Drive
If you are adventurous, you could drive down! We did last summer with a baby and it was relatively easy – motorways and services are pretty good in France! Then you would have your own car and be mobile and free to explore the beautiful region!
Ferries run regularly and there are often deals so it's wise to book early!
things to do and see
What to do?
The South West is France’s Best kept secret! This is also where Isabelle grew up and many of you may have heard about the beautiful beaches of Biarritz, the Basque Country, Bordeaux, etc… There is so much to do and see and it is still pretty unspoilt! The food is amazing! The surf out of this world, stunning landscapes and even super golf courses, unless you just prefer to laze on a nearly white sandy beach! If you can avail the May bank holiday and half term holidays, why not make a holiday of it and extend your visit?
We will try to populate with more ideas of activities over the next few weeks and do not hesitate to ask us for information too!
Please note that public transport in France is different from the UK and there are only a few (and expensive) taxis, and if you are planning on visiting around, you may want to hire a car for ease of mobility. In particular, in the evenings, there are no taxis at night, and you may need a designated driver…
