This chateau in Normandy is bursting with old-world charm. Built by the original owner in the 19th century as a wedding present for his wife, it has been lovingly restored in recent years. While historic features like the elegant façade, grand rooms and antique French floor tiles have been preserved, the basement has been converted into a haven for fun and relaxation. The curved brick rooms are now home to a cinema room, a pool table, and a fitness suite. Meanwhile upstairs retains its 19th-century splendour through antique furniture, original fireplaces, and oak panelled walls. 

Set within an 18-hectare estate, there are beautiful spots to while away the days. Relax on the lawn with a book or sip calvados on the charming château terrace. On sunny days, whip up lunch on the barbecue while the children have fun in the play area. There are over 300 apple and pear trees in the fruit orchard, and beautiful walking trails through the estate’s woodland, with sprawling views of Normandy countryside, which you can explore on foot or on the bikes at the house. 

The area is surrounded by picturesque villages and scenery. The historic town of Gournay-en-Bray is a five-minute drive away, where you can pick up local produce at the twice-weekly market for a picnic. The Forêt de Lyons can be reached in twenty minutes by car, where you can practise a range of outdoor adventures, or simply walk through the winding woodland trails.

If you want to see the ocean up close, the beach is less than 1km away – take a walk down to the golden sands to discover what the famous Emerald Coast has to offer. When you're feeling peckish, Cancale oysters are a must-try. Head to one of the local restaurants or buy some from the Mont Saint-Michel oyster market and take them home to prepare yourself. We highly recommend an alfresco dinner on the terrace, washed down with a glass of French wine. When you're finished, head up to the terrace to watch the sunset – the waterfront views have to be seen to be believed. 

When darkness falls, head inside to cuddle up on the sumptuous sofa to watch a movie. If you're travelling with little ones, the mezzanine level dens are the perfect place for a bedtime story to make sure they settle in for a good night's sleep.

Crack the Shutters

Taken in and of itself, this apartment in Saint-Aubin-sur-Meris is perfectly pleasant. The stark white walls and wood floors feel smart and contemporary, while the flashes of blue and some eye-catching accoutrements – the lighting fixtures and funky stools, to single out a couple – stop it from feeling too anonymous.

However, it's the home's outdoor space and excellent location that really distinguishes it from competitors. Along with two other apartments in the building, guests share a pretty garden bordered by flowerbeds and this looks out to the town's beach, which sits just across the street.

As well as offering opportunities for watersports and relaxation, the beaches of Saint-Aubin-sur-Meris hold significance for the pivotal role that the region played during D-Day.

Just don't get too comfortable – there's plenty to explore in the local area. The village of Créances is on the edge of the Cotentin and Bessin marshes regional park, a beautiful landscape of wetlands and windswept dunes. You're also just a short drive from Pritania beach.

Emerald Bay Cocoon

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

Nested in the heart of Normandy's gastronomic riches, Pivoine is a rustic retreat that will best suit those who want to slow down and smell the flowers. The estate of the chateau is perfect for long walks and doing absolutely nothing by the pool, while the interior promotes socialising via the regal antique furniture. The nearby town of Bourg-Achard also has a lovely bakery that delivers bread and pastries on demand – and everyone can wake up to the smell of croissants in the morning. 

Pivoine

Get a taste of royal life at this 16th-century chateau, located 5km from the tiny town of Haye du Puits. Go wild swimming in the pristine waters of the valley, or ramble in Normandy’s nature – this home offers 2.5 hectares of private land that’s all yours to explore. Handsomely historical, the manor was built as a fortified house in the Huguenot rebellion, and its period features include an original thatched roof. Climb to the top of its defensive tower for stunning views of the rolling green countryside, or out your alfresco fantasies with long, relaxed family meals on the open-air terrace.
