Le Clos
Hotel and restaurant in a village (Verneuil-sur-Avre) Made famous by the Hundred Years’ War and the famous battle of Verneuil, the town of Verneuil-sur-Avre is today the ideal place to relax... in peace. In February 2010 it was awarded the label of one of the “100 most beautiful destinations in France”. In English hands for some time, the city was re-conquered in 1449 by the French. This small château has retained some of its English charm with its spacious lawns with their straight lines and its centuries-old proudly pruned trees. One hundred years, that’s the time you would like to spend in this romantic residence tucked away close to the regional nature reserve of Perche. Don’t miss the wonderful wine cellar and collection of Calvados.
Le Château de Beaulieu
Restaurant of a Grand Chef Relais & Châteaux and hotel in a park (Busnes) One hour from Le Touquet, between the Opal Coast and Belgium, the elegant facade and sophisticated interior of the Château de Beaulieu grace the surroundings of a romantic park. This architectural gem is also home to one of the best restaurants in the region. The chef, Marc Meurin, pays tribute to Pas-de-Calais producers by using ingredients like Boulogne-sur-Mer scallops, Etaples bass and other fish and shellfish from the North Sea - “because of the currents in the nearby sea, the fish become strong and daring, which ultimately enhances the quality of their taste”. You can savour his creations in two glass-roofed restaurants and learn the tricks of the trade by attending his cooking classes. (Lys offer valid throughout the year except for weekends (“weekend is defined as the period from Friday evening to Sunday noon included))
Manoir des Saules
Hotel and restaurant in a village (La Saussaye) Formerly an inn, at one time a grocery, and then a country delicatessen… This ancient Normandy manor house has already lived several lives. Today it is an intimate hideaway, romantic down to the finest detail. Prepare yourself to fall in love under the willows… Not far from Trouville and Honfleur, this is the ideal starting point for sampling the best that the region has to offer.
La Ferme Saint-Siméon
Hotel and restaurant on the seafront (Honfleur) It was with this remark that the painter Eugène Boudin expressed his love for this place in one of his notebooks. With its bucolic charm and its washed-out light effects, the Saint-Siméon farm was one of the favourite refuges of the Impressionists. Monet and Courbet came in search of their colours. The poet Baudelaire also came here in search of inspiration abandoning the melancholy of Paris for the little port of Honfleur. Now restored, the premises today offer spa and beauty treatments worthy of the Roman thermal baths. “Oh Saint-Siméon!”, how hard it is to leave… (Lys offer valid throughout the year except for weekends (“weekend is defined as the period from Friday evening to Sunday noon included))
Château d'Audrieu
Hotel and restaurant in the country (Audrieu) A journey back in time awaits you at this castle listed as a historic monument. Its first owner, the Lord of Percy, was also William the Conqueror’s personal chef. However, the major historic chapter to relive in the surrounding area is the battle of Normandy - which changed the course of the Second World War between June and August 1944. This is the best Relais & Châteaux address for discovering the beaches of the D-Day landings, as well as to explore the Mont Saint-Michel.
