Getaways to Normandy

A destination long prized by Parisians, Normandy plays host to a treasure-trove of natural beauty and towns with an international aura such as the glamorous seaside resort of Deauville, the romantic Cabourg, and Honfleur, the stronghold of artists and Impressionism.


Poetic, soothing, elegant, and green, Normandy unfurls all the beneficial offerings of the sea and countryside. Blessed by an enchanting marine climate and an endlessly changing sky, it benefits from fascinating nature and light which inspired the Impressionists. Only two hours from the capital, Normandy is now invaded by Parisians who come to take advantage of its wonderful fresh air, and taste the flavours and fragrances of its excellent local produce. We all love its cider, fish, noble seafood, and prestigious cheeses... We appreciate the elegance of its star-rated hotels, the charm of its manor houses. We enjoy the exhilaration of long strolls on its sandy beaches, thrill to the excitement of its casino tables... From the famous boardwalks of Deauville, to Trouville, a chic little fishing port with a beach 1.2 km long, lined with sumptuous villas, Cabourg, a seaside resort as romantic as one could wish, where Marcel Proust wrote “In Search of Lost Time”, and Honfleur, the home port of Impressionist painters, the “Côte Fleurie” can be enjoyed in so many different ways.
