This charming stone house lies in the heart of D-Day country and has been beautifully renovated by its English owner. Whilst it offers modern features, such as a solarium terrace, it is a property in complete harmony with its rural setting. The local village, Ste. Marie-du-Mont has a 13th century church: the first to be liberated following the D-Day landings, and it has become one of the focal points of the liberation celebrations every June. Located just 10km from the famous Utah Beach, this holiday home is nestled perfectly between all of the historic sites of the Battle of Normandy and the Allied Landing. Saint-Mère-Eglise and its famous Airborne museum is just 11km away and the Pointe du Hoc, also a must visit location, just 35km away. You will be able to discover other regions such as Cherbourg and its Cité de la Mer or, explore the coastal villages of the Cotentin as the quaint port of Barfleur. For the more adventurous, why not try and cross the ‘la langue de mer’ (the tongue of the sea) that separates the coast of the island of Tatihou and its fort Vauban. Honfleur, Dieppe and Rouen are within an easy drive. With peaceful beaches and breath-taking countryside this is an ideal holiday location for exploring this famous region. This property can be booked with it’s neighbouring gite FNM293.
