Why stay in a hotel in Normandy, France, when you can enjoy the pleasures of Normandy from a beautiful home? More beautiful than any hotel in Normandy France, these beautiful vacation homes are located only minutes from the D-Day Landing beaches. The location is better than most hotels in Normandy France and are central to famous points of interest: the famous landing beaches of WWII, 25 minutes from chic Deauville and its film festival, 7 miles to Caen the home of the incredible WWII Museum. Bayeux is ten minutes drive away, a medieval town on a river and home of the famous tapestry of the Norman Invasion and 1066 fame. And of course, Normandy itself is a simply beautiful region where you can enjoy the beach, bicycling, golf tennis and great food.

What our guests say - Read more

“We stayed at the Manoir for a week in June 2007 and had a wonderful time. We have rented many vacation properties in Europe and the U.S. and this was by far the nicest place we have ever stayed. The house is graciously appointed, spacious and very comfortable. The grounds are beautiful, vast and well-manicured. There are an infinite number of special spots to while away the time with a good book and glass of wine or play a game of croquet. The caretakers (the Demey's) are both gracious and accommodating. We had arranged for Madame Demey to stock the refrigerator and prepare dinner for us on the night of our arrival. It was wonderful to have dinner cooking when we arrived on a rainy Saturday evening. (She is a wonderful cook!) Our stay was magical and we are already counting the days to our return.”
