There is lots of sky!!
There is safe off-road parking.Whilst being 'in the village' it is just on the edge therefore quiet!

The Normandy / Manche region

St Jean le Thomas is situated on the west coast of the Manche peninsula, in the bay of Mont Saint Michel. The Manche department is one of lush green fields and orchards; long sandy beaches; magnificent sea views; rolling hills and dales and charming towns and villages. The countryside and the slower pace of life have often been likened to a Devon reminiscent of the 1950's. This is real cider-making and horse riding country. There are many outstanding places of interest within easy reach : the tapestries at Bayeux, the D-Day landing beaches, the rugged coasts of Brittany, the copper town of Villedieu les Poêles, Cherbourg's hugely popular Cité de la Mer and of course, the jewel in the crown , the Mont St Michel.

The Mont St Michel / Granville area

St Jean is a charming village with lots of character, small enough to be quaint but large enough to boast all the amenities you would need for a relaxing holiday. There are three restaurants within walking distance , a bar in the centre of the village for sitting watching the world go by and another couple of beach bars. There are many beautiful walks - through the woods that shelter the village from behind, along the cliff tops with stunning views out to sea or simply along the miles of beach that face directly across to Mont St Michel. The Mont can be reached by road or there are guided walks across the sands, either on foot or on horseback.

Whilst one can be self-contained in the village the local towns of Avranches and Granville are only twenty minutes away. Avranches is an interesting hilltop town with many existing medieaval parts and was the scene of one of the Normandy invasion's fiercest battles. Granville is a beautiful seaside town and fishing port from where you can take a ferry for a day trip to Jersey and Guernsey or to the archipelago nature reserve that faces the twon across the sea. It has an interesting local history museum, an impressive art gallery and is home to the birthplace of Christian Dior, whose house is now a fascinating musem of fashion history.

There are many wonderful individual shops and boutiques and , of course, a huge choice of restaurants offering the whole range of fresh seafood one would expect from a town with its own fishing fleet.

The property's weekend rates apply to: Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights

NB: Prices may be subject to change at the advertiser's discretion.

From October to March we offer the house for couples at a special low rate of £300 per week. We don't have to have the normal Saturday start day but can offer midweek starts to take full benefit of lower ferry costs.

The house is more than a "gite" but a comfortable home from home. A great place to relax and get away from it all...though a phone and WIFI/broadband connection can be provided, if requested. For those guests not wishing to drag their own computer with them we offer use of our little office to keep up with emails.

We have had this year quite a few enquiries for long weekend breaks, people wanting to get away and recharge their batteries with some good food and wine! So we are offering short breaks, midweek and weekend for £140 a couple and £180 for two couples. A chance to get some fresh sea air and fresh sea food.
