About Normandy
Impressionist Eden
Not only are they invitingly picturesque, those in Calvados county are where the allied troops landed in France during the second World War. Another coastal attraction is Mont Saint-Michel, a medieval abbey perched on an isolated rocky island. While it’s now accessible by road, many visitors choose to trek across the ocean floor at low tide to reach it. Of course if you’re looking for a more contemporary seaside scene, Normandy has that too. In Deauville and Trouville, you’ll find understated glamour in each town’s chic beachside setting. Inland, you’ll find the lush, beautiful gardens at Giverny, Monet’s country home, as well as the story of the Norman conquest of England as depicted on the famed Bayeux Tapestry in Bayeux. The region truly offers a wealth of appeal, and a Normandy villa puts you in the center of it all.
