Falling under the charm of NORMANDIE

A quick trip to Normandy and totally spellbound by  this beautiful region of France 

Etretat by MONET
Étretat, with its picturesque cliffs, is a seaside resort located 200 km from Paris.
Romantic theater open on the Channel ... Étretat attracted and inspired many painters (Monet, Corot, Boudin ...), filmmakers and writers (Maupassant, ...).

Trouville by BOUDIN
Honfleur invites you to discover its picturesque streets and its narrow, slate-covered houses and half-timbered façades. On the estuary of the Seine, city of painters and Impressionism, "Honfleur has this extra soul that makes it irresistible". The changing lights of the sky inspired the painters (Courbet, Monet, Boudin ..). Even today, there are many galleries and artists' studios.

A step away from its famous neighbor, Deauville, Trouville-sur-mer is a seaside resort full of charm … its villas belle-epoque, its beautiful beach.

« la route des chaumières »
…Charming route of about fifty kilometers along the  SEINE river. For a long time, the Norman cottage were "shelters of misery"… they became gradually rural habitat, made of clay, stone and wood,…they reflect a secular Norman tradition .. . and to-day, they delight you with their beauty

Let Normandy surprise you .. go and see the photo albums
