A survey by Explorimmo found buyers were looking at flats more than traditional houses and the No1 dream destination was the Arcachon Basin in Gironde, with 21% of hopefuls. Deauville in Normandy draws 18% and Cassis on the Mediterranean east of Marseille just behind on 17%.

Filling out the top 10 were Biarritz, Ile-de-Ré, Saint-Jean-de-Luz, Quiberon, Ramatuelle, Sainte-Maxime and Porto-Vecchio.
