The Northern France / Nord-Pas-de-Calais region


This part of France, which is so close to England, is famous for its beaches and golf. However very few know of the enchanting towns and stunning Picardy countryside that is to be found just a short distance inland.
The Montreuil-sur-Mer / Montreuil area
In the 1920's and 1930's Le Touquet was one of the most glamorous holiday destinations in Europe, frequented by royalty, the rich and famous. Today this is reflected in the grand hotels, casino, championship golf courses and innumerable restaurants. The huge sandy beaches provide a welcome tranquility. Aside from golf, the visitor can be served at the sailing centre, two equestrian centres and even a sand-yachting school.
The house itself is one mile outside Montreuil, which is an ancient fortified town. Still contained within its enormous walls, the town has hardly been touched for two centuries. Small shops, cafes and restaurants are plentiful and there is an excellent market on Saturday mornings in the main square.
Beyond Montreuil lies the beautiful folding countryside of the 'Seven Valleys' region with its charming small villages and bustling market towns. There are wonderful walks and the rivers provide for fishing as well as some exciting canoeing. For the adventurous, Paris is close enough for a day trip.

The Manoir is under one hour's drive from Calais, less from the Eurotunnel and only 30 minutes from Boulogne.
Take the A16 motorway south, in the direction of Boulogne, come off at the LE TOUQUET exit and take the road signposted to Montreuil. Drive through the cobbled streets of Montreuil and straight over the small roundabout as you come out of the town. Fork right after 100m onto the road to Campigneulles-les-Petites. After one mile you will come to the crossroads by the village church, turn left and then right so that you cross the village green. The Manoir is the white house behind the large, white iron gates.
The Eurostar train stops at Calais four times a day and a car can be arranged to pick you up from the station. Alternatively there is a daily scheduled flight from Kent to Le Touquet.

Guestbook for Le Manoir
Alas it is all over now. We had a lovely time at the Manor house, the Grandchildren particularly enjoyed the space to play. The House and location were good, we were blessed with beautiful weather, good food and wine and the Montreuil festival. Once again I want to thank you for coming to our rescue. BR 2011
I want to let you know that we had a wonderful family-week at The Manoir. This time the sun was nearly every day our companion so we could fully enjoy the garden, the tennis court and the other facilities. The children had a wonderful time as well as the adults. The region itself was much nicer then expected in comparison with the Calais region, which is more flat and less green. We want to thank you for the pleasure living for one week at the Manoir . GH 2011
