Perfect klein huis voor twee
Bijzonder aardige gastvrouw/eigenares. Verse eitjes en potje bramenjam als welkom. Huis is heel volledig ongericht: van afwasmiddel tot stofzuiger, van broodrooster tot losse terraslamp. Nog geen 10 min. fietsen via landelijk fietspad naar strand in Wimereux, ook maar 8 km naar Boulogne-sur-Mer. Klein terras aan voorkant huis, fijn besloten, maar erg lawaaierig door vele motoren die langskomen. Je kunt ook achter het huis zitten in de enorme, landelijke tuin met kippen en fruitbomen.

About the host

Hosted by Zoé Delmaire

Host profile image
We are enthusiastic gardeners and have lots of experience of building projects. After many years of searching all over France, we found our house in Wimille ten years ago. The house was very run down and the garden had been abandonned for many years. We began the renovation in 2016 and the transformation of the old kitchen and attic into an attractive holiday apartment is our most recent achievement.

Nous sommes des jardiniers et des bricoleurs invétérés. Après des années de recherche partout en France, nous avons trouvé notre maison à Wimille. La maison était en très mauvais état, mais le grand jardin à l’abandon depuis des années à nous séduit. Nous avons commencé la rénovation en 2006, et petit à petit les projets s’achèvent. La transformation de l’ancienne cuisine et du grenier en joli appartement très « cosy » est notre dernière réalisation.


Why they chose this property

Wimille is an attractive village, close to the coast, but sheltered from the wind. Here you have the advantage of being in the countryside, but also close to the town. People say that the front of our house is in a village and the back is in the country !
You can take a green path from the village and walk or cycle beside the river to reach the beach at Wimereux. Two bikes are available for our guests to use.




Wimille est un joli village, près de la côte mais à l’abri du vent. Ici vous avez l’avantage d’être à la campagne mais aussi près de la mer. On dit que notre maison est dans un village devant est à la compagne derrière !

En plus une coulée verte vous offre un agréable accès direct à la mer en vélo ou à pied.

What makes this property unique

For people who love wild gardens and nature. The garden is shared between people and wildlife, we cultivate vegetables without the use of pesticide. The river Wimereux is at the bottom of the garden.

Pour les amoureux des jardins et de la nature. Le jardin est partagé entre l’homme et la nature, nous cultivons notre potager sans pesticides. Le Wimereux passe au fond du domaine.
