Outside
Large, one-acre private garden offers ample space for noisy children. There is also a large trampoline for children to play on.
Coast/Beach
Nearest beaches face the bay of Mont St Michel, and are about a 45-minute drive away. The best one is probably at Granville, which has spectacular cliffs, rocks to climb on, rockpools, and a seawater swimming pool.
Granville itself is a very interesting old fortified town with upmarket shops and restaurants, plus Christian Dior's house, which has a beautiful clifftop garden overlooking the sea.
Lingreville, also popular with children because of huge sand dunes.
Golf
The fantastic Scottish-style coastal golf links of Granville, designed by Harry Colt in 1912 is less than an hour's drive away. The Granville centre also offers a further nine-hole seaside course, and there is another nine-hole golf course about 15 minutes drive from the house.

The journey from the Brittany Ferries terminal at Caen-Ouistreham takes 1hr, or it is 1hr 15mins via new dual carriageway from the Cherbourg ferry terminal, and a similar time from the ferry terminal at St Malo.
