Your seaside holidays!

Did you think we only had self-catering villages in the countryside? Well, we don’t! You can also rent a gîte by the sea. Sometimes, even from your rental property, you only have to walk 500 m to reach the beach, like at Sotteville sur Mer in Normandy! A real treat, isn’t it? Your hosts will be able to point out the most beautiful beaches, as well as the best restaurants for sampling the local cuisine. And what better way to spend a summer than wandering through the narrow streets of small coastal villages on foot or by bike. From the sand and pebbles of Normandy to the wilds of Brittany, the seaside is undoubtedly the ideal destination for a relaxing and rejuvenating holiday.
