Açıklama İngilizceSet in idyllic gardens, within walking distance to both a pretty coastal village and beautiful beach, this charming home is a wonderful spot for care-free holidays exploring the enchanting region of the Seine-Maritime in Normandy.

At Manoir des Falaises you will be staying in part of a historic residence that is one of the oldest in the village, dating back to the 16th century. Inside, it’s a home of immense charm with typically French interiors full of character and warmth with interesting artwork, old photographs and comfy furnishings. Four bedrooms and three bathrooms makes this lovingly renovated home ideal for a family or a great base for good friends who wish to spend time in an authentic French abode. 

No matter what time of year, the landscaped gardens are a joy with blossoming trees, evergreen hedges and delightful lawns, surrounded by traditional stone walls. Read a book in the shade of an ancient tree, sip calvados whilst relaxing in a deck chair or lay out a picnic rug after a trip to one of the lovely local markets. Subtle artistic sculptures or objets d’art add yet more character; this an exceptional place to spend time with loved ones.

The Alabaster coast is so near with a glorious beach within walking distance, following the trails through the beautiful countryside, or just 2km by car. With its sandy shores at low tide, this is a picture-perfect spot for days on the beach, paddling, swimming, building sand-castles and searching for pebbles. There are many other beaches within a short drive, some ideal for hikers with dramatic coastal paths hugging the shoreline, others with surfing schools or beachside cafes, all backed by the stunning Alabaster cliffs that this part of Normandy is so famous for.

You can also stroll down to the charming little village with its boulangerie, butchers, small supermarket and a couple of restaurants or travel further afield to the attractive maritime town of Dieppe with its historic old town, fantastic weekly market and other attractions that will appeal to all ages. The enchanting village of Veules les Roses is also a must-see, one of France’s ‘Plus Beaux Villages’ due to its delightful thatched cottages and waterwheels along the river leading to the beach.

The white-cliffs of Étretat and the French seaside towns of Deauville and Honfleur can also be visited in a day, as can historic Rouen and Monet’s famous Giverny gardens. So close to English shores and with so much to see and do, this part of Normandy, along the Pays de Caux, is a real gem.
