Normandy, France
- 6 persons

Beautiful, characterful house in a garden of over half a hectare just over 2 km from the sea. The house has an area of 90 square meters (15x6) and it has a ground floor and a first floor. The house is on maps older than the French Revolution. It has a slate roof and the walls are built of flint bricks, chalk (in the interior walls), grès (hard rock), brick and wood. We used mostly recup materials in the restoration. Although you should not expect the grand luxuries, everything is provided. A new, fully equipped kitchen, an infrared sauna, 2 bedrooms but in the end room for 8 people (2 double beds, 2 single beds and a sofa bed downstairs). Present : crib, park, high chair. Heating is done with a heat pump or the soapstone stove. With proper use, you can heat the entire house with the stove and a minimum of wood. It is very quiet in the house! We do not offer Wifi!
Nature and surroundings
The garden is about 7500 square meters and divided into 2 parts. In the part where the house stands, we have planted a standard orchard, hedges, flower beds, small fruit and all kinds of herbs. In the second part, behind the fence, there is a large meadow of half a hectare, bordered on two sides with ancient beech trees. On this part there is an old barn in which swallows nest and the occasional owl. Because we don't cut the grass on the pasture until June, it is buzzing with insects and teeming with small life. It is fertile soil. We are a little more than 2 km from the sea with its high chalk cliffs and nearby is the protected valley of the Durdent where several wading birds breed and where we have spotted otters and badgers. Deeper into the valley organic farmers grow vegetables where you can also go as an individual. The area is veined with hiking trails. We especially enjoy the silence, the salty sea air and the improbably beautiful light at dusk.

Sven August 17, 2025 General rating:Thanks and hope to see you soon!
Dank en graag tot ziens!
Nature, peace & environment:Surrounded by swallows, peacocks and salty sea air, we enjoyed peace and delay. The cottage offered all the comforts we desired. We were especially drawn to the outdoors, and in the chill of the evening we could warm ourselves at the tiled stove. One rainy morning we dove into the sauna while the children made apple and pear crumble. With the harvest from our own garden... Can life be more beautiful?
Omringd door zwaluwen, pauwen en zilte zeelucht genoten we van rust en vertraging. Het huisje bood alle comfort dat we wensen. Ons trok vooral het buitenleven, en in de kilte van de avond konden we ons verwarmen aan de tegelkachel. Op een regenachtige ochtend doken we de sauna in terwijl de kinderen appel- en peer crumble maakten. Met de oogst uit eigen tuin… Kan het leven mooier zijn?

Wanda July 23, 2025 General rating:The cottage is fully equipped and spacious. A kitchen where you can enjoy cooking and a living area where you can also sit. Good beds. And a wonderful place to unwind.
Het huisje is van alle gemakken voorzien en ruim opgezet. Een keuken waar je heerlijk kan koken en een woongedeelte waar je ook lekker kan zitten. Prima bedden. En een heerlijke plek om tot rust te komen.
Nature, peace & environment:It was a wonderful environment. It's a small village, you have a big garden with great seating areas. There was a lot of peace and quiet and you are so close to the beautiful chalk cliffs and beach in the village below.
Het was een heerlijke omgeving. Het is een klein dorpje, je hebt een grote tuin met geweldige zitgelegenheden. Er was veel rust en je bent zo bij de prachtige krijtrotsen en strand in het dorp beneden.
