An airy, art-filled house for groups of family or friends, with plenty of space, a secluded courtyard and pool near the beach

A brilliant marriage of old stone, modern design and reclaimed timbers, the U-shaped Normandy farmhouse is so cleverly linked that you don’t notice the joins. The pebbled courtyard on one side, the pool and deck on the other send light through generous windows onto the squishy sofas, distressed brocante, glorious timber gallery and gilt frames of the huge living area which feels both luxuriously sophisticated and totally relaxed. There's fast fibre broadband too for anyone who needs to work.

The kitchen is filled with everything the modern cook could want. You can keep an eye on the children in the pool while rustling up that feast of local specialities. The double rooms are lovely, downstairs in contemporary style, upstairs more romantically antique, and bathrooms have good-sized showers.

You'll find bikes waiting so venture out to explore markets, beaches, pretty towns.

Local points of interest from Alec & Vicki Howe:

Punti d'interesse locali da
Alec & Vicki Howe:

La Cale, everyone's favourite beach shack for the best moules frites and sausages is 10 mins away. Get a table outside with your feet in the sand, and watch the the sunset. Or try the BOA, a pop up bar at Gouville beach for great tapas, beers and cocktails
For a bit of brocante visit La Cle du Temps (10 mins away.) A huge 'Depôt Vente' full of anything and everything used and quirky... New things arrive every day. Prices are reduced on all items regularly until they sell. Guests adore going here!
If you're coming to this part of France you'll already know about its history. La Brocanterie is ideally placed for day trips to Mt St Michel, the landing beaches, the Bayeux tapestry, the Cite de la Mer (visit a nuclear submarine!), and masses more.
Take one of La Brocanterie's bikes and bicycle to the village for your baguetteand croissants, or go for a leisurely ride. The local area is flat and has plenty of recommended routes to follow.
Plenty of activities abound, from playgrounds, mini golf and pedaloes, to horse riding on the beach, sand yachting, kite surfing, stand up boarding, tennis, golf, bungy jumping, forest adventures, paint ball, laser game, karting; something for everyone.
