Charming former dovecote, superbly renovated, located in Normandy near the picturesque village of Sainte-Mère-l'Eglise. 2 bedrooms, a typical and original accommodation, beautiful exterior, located less than three hours from Paris, on the Cotentin Bay.
Established in a region steeped in history and heroism, this exceptional property overlooks Utah Beach and shares a wild and preserved environment between the sea and the plains
Just a stone's throw from the beach, in the heart of a fully restored park, this exceptional 17th century architectural ensemble is made up of three buildings: a manor house Le Manoir de Revelie and a pavilion Le Pavillon de Reveile and a former dovecote Le Bonheure des Colombes
Come and enjoy an intimate and unusual night in Le Bonheur des Colombes, a beautifully restored former dovecote! This majestic hexagonal building can accommodate up to four people. With family or friends, enjoy this unique and atypical place for a beautiful stay in Normandy that you will remember for a long time.
The building is spread over three levels and has a large round living area and two picturesque bedrooms with private bathrooms.
Over 2000 bolt holes on the walls, once used as pigeon houses, have been completely preserved and restored. In this extravagant and sensational hunting lodge, the warm colures of the decoration contrast with the stone and brick walls, giving the place a warm atmosphere.
After a day of long walks in the fresh air on the Normandy coast, whipped by the sea and the winds, what could be better than a long evening in front of the peaceful fireplace before lounging quietly in the huge round copper bath of the large room on the first floor
In the park, a subtle blend of French garden and English countryside, the ruin of a later castle remains, now laid out and staged around a pond and a garden of simple plants, a true sanctuary for contemplation.
Plenty to do in the region, get on a bike and head off to the beaches of Ravenoville just 5 minutes away from the Domaine. This immense play park is the perfect spot for fishing on foot with your family, a horse cavalcade or …. an introduction to sand yachting! From April to October Utah Mer Loisirs offers classes for beginners.
To continue your quest of a change in scenery, be sure to include an excursion to St. Vaast la Hougue, an adorable village labelled in 2018 as “preferred village” by the French. Its small fishing port and its winding streets will be charm you.
Between April and September continue to the other side of the coast, where you can admire the magnificent classified Gardens of Vauville, designed by the talented landscape architect Guillaume Pellerin and his wife Cléophée de Turckheim.
On the way back, stop in Valognes to visit Hôtel de Beaumont, one of most beautiful, private mansions of Cotentin and dine at L’Epicurien. The menu is simple but delicious and the staff absolutely outstanding, however, be sure to book ahead!
