The Normandy / Manche region
Normandy has every conceivable mixture of history and landscape. It exhibits an astonishing variety of scenery with its cliffs, golden sandy beaches, wooded valleys and close by the stunning Vire Valley Gorge. The Vire Valley is known for its micro climate.
Normandy offers lively coastal towns, e.g. Granville with its casino, art galleries and the Christian Dior Museum. there is a Zooligical Park on the road between Granville and Villedieu les Poeles. Villedieu is home to 'frying pans and bells' - with good eateries and plenty of shops, as well as museum and market well worth a visit. and close to the house. Other little gems on the coast are Portbaille, Carteret and Barnville. It also offers idyllic countryside villages and hamlets where you will always find a boulangerie and bar! Bayeux and all the Normandy landing beaches are a must. Brittany easy to reach.
Honfleur is called the St.Tropez of the north and is lovely just walk around, take in the Saturday market and eat outside chosing one of the many restaurants there - fantastic seafood and such a pretty place. Lots of information on arrival of recommended places to visit - many we have visited ourselves.
St Lo area

There are a wide variety of shops and restaurants and a very good Saturday Market. Other local markets are Vire,and not to be missed Villiedieu and of course Granville.
