A stones throw from the beach and only a five minute walk to the friendly 18 hole golf course: The Beach House is located on the 'deuxième ligne' (2nd row of houses) from the sea front, in the heart of Agon Coutainville, a well known coastal village. Only 3 hrs from Paris, it's a popular spot for the Parisians, some keeping holiday homes here for generations. Built around the turn of the century, the house is on 3 floors and decorated in shabby chic East Coast style. The main living area is on the first floor; open plan with sitting room, dining area and galley kitchen. The two terraces are great for outside dining, the lower one with a built-in barbecue, ideal for those long summer evenings. The house has a lovely atmosphere and is enjoyed by all generations. On your doorstep is the village square; restaurants, shops, markets and much more. In summer the local tourist office organises activities for all. Look at our other house (15 mins away) with private pool property nr 513501.

Agon Coutainville is situated on the west coast of the Normandy peninsular, with views out to the Channel Islands and Chausey archipelago. About an hour from Cherbourg and 1 1/2 hr from Caen, it is easy to reach. Well placed for cultural outings to Mont Saint Michel, the Normandy landing beaches or the Bayeux Tapestry, or even the shopping and Christian Dior museum in Granville, or a day trip to Jersey or perhaps you would prefer to wander through the Marais, or bicycle through country lanes and explore along the seafront. There is no need to do anything - just relax into a different pace of life - go to the twice weekly market for local oysters and mussels, take in a coffee or two at a beachside cafe-bar.
