Dotted with dune-backed beaches, dramatic cliffs and charming towns, the Normandy coast offers an idyllic, family-focussed summer retreat, far removed from the frenetic pace of everyday life.

In keeping with Normandy's fascinating and well-documented history, this charismatic stone building offers a glimpse into the past. It's been lovingly renovated with your needs in mind. However, there's still plenty of period charm that helps this home stand out from the crowd. From the shuttered windows to the exposed beams and soaring ceilings, to the stylish furniture, cutting-edge kitchen and sleek shower rooms, this home spans the centuries.

History buffs will no doubt appreciate the proximity of a section of Juno Beach, which attracts those seeking to learn more about the D-Day landings, as well as a chance to marvel at the iconic Bayeux tapestry. Nature lovers, meanwhile, will find their happy place in the hiking paths and bike trails overlooking the Seulles Valley, a short drive away. 

Crack the Shutters

Surrounded by scenic valley views overlooking the apple orchards used to produce the region's cider and calvados exports and the grazing cows in the fields. This 17th-century estate presents a magical setting from which to explore the best of Normandy. 

Positioned just a fifteen-minute drive from Honfleur and 30 kilometres away from the sought-after beaches of Deauville, it is also the perfect base to discover the Bayeux Tapestry, Monet's Garden, and the historic landing beaches. 

As you enter the home's grounds, you'll first be welcomed by a hedged garden and an abundance of traditional Normandic charm and character seen throughout the exterior of the farmhouse. Inside is just as enchanting, as while original features remain faithful to the home's heritage – modern designs and amenities pave the way to a comfortable and memorable stay. 

So after a day of discovery amidst the local countryside, sit in front of the fire and soak it all up with a glass of Calvados on the rocks while you ponder the space's fascinating history. Rumour has it; the neighbouring chateau has even played host to guests such as the Aga Khan and the Dalai Lama. 

Calvados on the Rocks

Looking out over the historic heart of the Saint-Léonard district of Honfleur from its rooftop location up on the third floor, this charming apartment can accommodate six people. On entry, you'll be greeted by a beautifully illuminated space with plenty of skylights embedded in the sloping ceilings. The open-plan living room and kitchen is an enticing mix of old and new, with a sleek kitchen and modern furnishings sitting beneath original exposed beams. The bedrooms are more classically contemporary, with ceilings that slope down from sky-high to almost floor level, which adds some design interest. Honfleur has long been a favourite with France's most famous painters, including Monet. Nowadays, this charming old port town is a popular day-trip destination for weary Parisians looking to escape the city for a long weekend. With spades of rugged maritime charm, the Vieux Bassin (Old Harbour) evokes a Normandy that was lost long ago. 

Casa Solar

Step back in time at this charming château just minutes from the dramatic Normandy coastline. Inside, it's grand but homely – think dark wood-pannelled walls, chandeliers, exposed beams, and arched windows framing picture-perfect views across the lawn. Saint-Valery-en-Caux, a pretty harbour town with bistros, shops, and markets, is only 4 kilometres away. Or head to nearby Veules-les-Roses, one of France’s most beautiful villages, with waterwheels, thatched cottages, and a pier, where you can try Veulaise oysters, a local delicacy. 

Normandy Château

Amidst Calvados orchards and stunning rural landscapes rests this 18th-century chateau in the heart of the Normandy countryside. Dripping in elegance, the castle retains its enchanting heritage dating back to the 1700s, while modern renovations bring added comfort and practicality. 

Experience Normandy's unrivalled calmness as you wander around the chateau's 13 acres of lawns, ancient trees and rose gardens. During the springtime, watch the flowers blossom, while in summer, you can take delight in picking plums, apples and cherries from the orchard. The autumnal colours and majestic charm of the wintertime – make this spot completely ravishing all year round.

Original features inside the chateau include parquet flooring, Louis XV and XVI fireplaces and a wonderful classic French kitchen equipped with an open fire. With such preservations in addition to simply beautiful contemporary additions – this spot certainly boasts the wow factor. We particularly adore the office and library spaces, which somehow make us want to pack our laptops just to find a reason to enjoy these rooms. 

Upstairs the bedroom and bathroom suites are dressed in minimal designs and invite guests to truly switch off. The window-side built-in bathtub is like something from a fairytale and deserves to be enjoyed with a glass of champagne in hand. Or why not make that a Calvados cocktail? 

You'll be within easy reach of the Normandy cider routes from here, so soak up the slow pace of life found in the charming local villages, which are most often home to atmospheric markets boasting fine quality fresh fare. Within short driving distance, the likes of Bayeux, Caen and the D-Day Landing beaches are well worth a visit if you're keen to explore Normandy's cultural and historical sights amongst its captivating natural beauty. 

Calvados Royal

When nothing but an actual French chateau will do Cosmopolitan Castle comes to the rescue. This lavish home has hosted a few famous faces, from Aga Khan and the Dalai Lama, and now you. With fourteen bedrooms that can accommodate up to twenty-eight guests, this is a perfect place to accommodate a large family gathering or a wedding party, but you can also use it as a a luxurious base to explore Normandy. Places to see theatre easily accessible from here include the Landing Beaches, the Bayeux Tapestry and Monet's Garden — but there's so much to see around here that we'd rather just let you get on with it. When you're not out and about, relax on the vast estate that surrounds the chateau. You can walk in the gardens, splash around in the pool, play ping pong, work on your tan, read in the salon, or socialise in one of the living rooms. When you need some intimacy, retreat to your bedrooms, all of whom are big, quiet, furnished with beautiful antiques. 

Cosmopolitan Castle

This Norman farmhouse has been impeccably renovated to create a private and contemporary oasis. The quaint timbered exterior has been preserved, while the inside is tastefully designed to blend rustic with modern. Exposed brickwork, natural wooden floors and stone walls characterise each room, while the sleek, high-spec kitchen and modern bathroom with ambient lighting add an updated twist. The house is set on 1.7 acres of land, meaning you’ll have plenty of privacy. You're surrounded by beauty here –wander through the pretty landscaped gardens and head down one of the winding paths to admire the bucolic scenery.  

The large heated 14x4m pool means you can enjoy year-round fun, and there’s an outdoor shower to rinse off in before curling up on a deck chair. The kids will have endless fun running around in the gardens, playing ping pong, and making use of the two bikes. On rainy days they can retreat to the games room, where there’s plenty of board games. 

You are well placed to explore all the delights of the Pays d’Auge region – the village of Honfleur is a fifteen-minute drive away, with its picture-perfect harbour and expansive sandy beach. For the daily shop, there’s a small village near the house which is reachable on foot. On Tuesday mornings drive seven minutes to the farmers’ market in Beuzeville, where you can pick up some local produce and enjoy an alfresco lunch back at home.
