Editors Note: There is a photo and a video included with this Press
Release.
An enchanting, largely undiscovered French village and its beautiful
surroundings are starring in an innovative new web TV channel being
launched today to promote a local builder's residential development. The
channel, EUGENIE TV http://www.villas-eugenie.fr is designed to entice
first-time and returning visitors from throughout the world to explore
the region, invest in a villa and enjoy a spectacular gourmet offer.
The campaign will feature a new video every week throughout the summer,
allowing visitors to discover the town of Eugenie-les-Bains and France's
beautiful Southwest region, home to Atlantic beaches, the mountains of
the Pyrenees and a rich cultural and culinary heritage.
"We needed to find a way to let potential investors know of this
opportunity and introduce them to the region, particularly those who
reside overseas," said Jean-Paul Beauchamp, developer of Villas
EUGENIE(R). "We believe we have an exceptionally attractive product at an
affordable price in one of most beautiful, best-preserved corners of
France. Our challenge was how to convey the story in a way that captures
the spirit of what makes the Southwest so special and we are counting on
the speed and power of the Internet to help make it happen."
Among the discoveries waiting for visitors to Eugenie-les-Bains, whether
in person or on EUGENIE TV, is one of France's national treasures, the
"Pres d'Eugenie," http://www.michelguerard.com/siteUK.htm a prestigious
Relais and Chateaux hotel with its three-starred restaurant, and the
Ferme Thermale spas created by gourmet chef, Michel Guerard and his wife,
Christine. Villa purchasers who act before October 1 are being offered a
dream weekend for two at the Pres d'Eugenie, which enjoys an
international reputation as one of France's most prestigious healthful
cuisine destinations. The chef and his restaurant will be featured on
EUGENIE TV in one of the weekly videos.
A favorite destination for more than 400 years of visitors drawn by the
restorative qualities of the thermal spas, the village was propelled to
national prominence in the nineteenth century when it was adopted by the
Empress Eugenie, wife of Napoleon III. It has seamlessly integrated its
magical qualities and old-world charm with the modern amenities of a
bigger community with shopping centers, cinema, theater, and a wide
assortment of cultural, tourist and gastronomic destinations nearby.
Eugenie-les-Bains is ideally located at a crossroads of leisure, cultural
and historic wonders with a myriad of activities from which to choose
including golf, hiking, riding, canoeing, skiing in the Pyrenees,
swimming and surfing at Atlantic beaches, bicycling through vast pine
forests, exploring ruins dating to the Romans or shopping and
sight-seeing in the lovely nearby towns of Bordeaux, Biarritz, St.
Jean-de-Luz, Dax, Bayonne or Pau - or even stepping next door to Spain.
Easily accessible from within and outside of France, the village is close
to the international airports of Pau and Tarbes-Lourdes, high-speed rail
and major auto routes.
