Home description
La Maison des Fleurs, with its winding staircase and beamed ceilings exudes the elegance and style that Honfleur is renowned for. Each property has been furnished to provide you with everything you need for a relaxing self catering holiday but with some extra home comforts which you might expect from a boutique hotel.
The 17th century apartment building benifits from being just a 2 minute walk to the 'Vieux Bassin' and next to the famous Sainte-Catherine Church, which is largest church made out of wood in France.

Everything is accessible by foot. The beach ,the beautifully gardens, open air swimming pool, 10 tennis courts and mini golf are all within a short distance.
