Artist's house, built in 1904, 500 m from the lighthouse, within a forest

The house has two living rooms, of which one very large (52 sqm and 4 meter ceiling), four fireplaces, four bedrooms, one kitchen, two bathrooms, three WCs. The three floors of the house and its large rooms allow at once peace, calm and also being together with family or friends. The garden is ideal for flower-lovers, kids and well-behaved dogs. The trees are partly one hundred year old. It is cared for by a gardener and has various essences: rhododendrons, hydrangeas, azaleas... The flowering season is at its best in April, May and June.

Lovely old house in a great location
This an interesting old property in a great location, close to Varengeville and near some beautiful gardens. It’s very comfortable - although admittedly there was just two of us for most of the time - with a large sitting room and plenty of secure outdoor space.

A Wonderful Week in Normandy
There was so much to like about this property - the age, size and character of the house, the large garden (of which the children took great advantage), the heavily treed and otherwise very attractive neighbourhood in which it’s situated, its proximity to the sea, the access it gave us to an outstanding local bakery, the many walks it opened up for us, the short distance to Dieppe and all that it has to offer (most notably the Saturday morning market), the well supplied kitchen, the option we had of eating our meals both indoors and on the porch outside, to mention only some of its appealing features. Marc was also an excellent host, especially in the lead up to our visit, during which he sent us lots of helpful information about both the house and the local area that made our stay that much more enjoyable.

Amazing!!
We had 1 regret from our trip to France, not enough time in this beautiful home and garden!! After 4 busy days in and around Paris, this stay in a beautiful turn of the century home was exactly what we needed. The beautiful garden was so peaceful and the home so welcoming. We really cannot say enough great things about it. The owner and property team were great to work with and provided an abundance of information about the property and surrounding area. Our family was entirely blessed to find this beautiful corner of paradise.

Fantastic house, great experience!
We had an absolute great time chez Marc. Everything from initial communication with Marc and property manager Franck was top! The house is absolutely charming with enough room for the 11 of us. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen is stocked with anything you could need. I would love to return in the summertime. The area is beautiful and we had many good walks on the beach. Highly recommend this magical place!

A little bit of heaven on earth
Our experience renting this property was excellent. Marc was quick to respond, had loads of helpful information to share about nearby restaurants and areas to explore, and we were welcomed with cider, Norman apple cake, and apple juice! The house is simply beautiful. Everything was clean and tidy. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you could need to make meals. The beautiful gardens and outdoor seating and dining areas were much used by us. We had the best time here and would love to return.

A Spacious and comfortable house!
Thank you for a lovely stay with family in Normandy. The check in was lovely - we arrived with tired adults and kids from CDG and were greeted with the manager and a local apple tart and ciders. The lawn is great - we were able to use the bikes - and play games outdoors till late. The house is comfortable - the large living room is great for families and separate from the bedrooms so you can’t hear people. The bedrooms and bathrooms are very comfortable. The kitchen is strange and quite difficult to move around in. The layout of the kitchen is not at all suited to the number of people who can stay in the house. But as long as only one or two people are working in there, it’s fine. This area of Normandy is very quiet and beautiful. Arriving on a Saturday, there was little open till Tuesday. We did enjoy a great seafood lunch in Dieppe and loved that church. We spent a day in Rouen and Veules-Les-Roses which is beautiful, before moving to the southern part of the area. I found the deposit that the owner required nerve-wracking. I had to wire 1200 euros before the trip, and it took weeks to get it back after we left. Part of this was getting the right information to Marc, but this was difficult as I was still traveling. It made me uneasy sending this outside of the VRBO system.

A wonderful week
The house is magnificent, of its period and full of charm. The garden is a delight, both for sitting and admiring and for children to play and explore. We had a great time in this fascinating area with glorious sea food and beaches, though you must read the tide times carefully. The owner’s helpful guides and his efficient and friendly response to queries helped to make us feel at home for this family reunion. Thanks to everyone who made our time in Normandy so wonderful.

A blissful week!
Marc's home is full of old world charm, is surrounded by woods, and is a short drive from several beaches. For reference, we had two families stay at the house (4 adults, 3 children) and had plenty of space. There are several dining areas to choose from both inside the house and out in the yard, which made for some fantastic outdoor dinners. The house also has its own cabana on a nearby beach, which made it easy to leave all of our things locked up at the beach, and head home for a quick meal. The house also stayed relatively cool on warmer days since it is surrounded by so many trees, providing nice shade. Finally, there is a market, a butcher, and a boulangerie all located less than a mile from the house, which was very helpful since we cooked all of our own meals. We definitely plan on returning to the beautiful part of Normandy and staying in this home again! The Zimmer Family

Unique Experience
My recent stay at the seaside country house was nothing short of magical. Nestled in a picturesque landscape, this charming retreat offered the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. From the moment we arrived, I was enveloped in a sense of tranquility and warmth. The house itself is beautifully maintained, with every detail thoughtfully considered. The interior exudes a cozy atmosphere with comfortable furnishings, and large windows. Waking up to the sound of birds was an absolute delight. One of the highlights of my stay was the spacious living room with a fireplace. Whether sipping my morning coffee or enjoying a glass of wine at sunset, it was the ideal spot to unwind and take in the natural beauty surrounding us. The well-manicured garden added to the charm, providing a peaceful place to read or simply relax. The hosts were exceptionally welcoming and attentive, ensuring that every aspect of our stay was perfect. Their local knowledge was invaluable, offering great recommendations for nearby attractions, hidden beaches, and the best seafood restaurants. I felt genuinely cared for and appreciated their thoughtful touches, such as the welcome treat. The location of the country house is another standout feature. It offers the best of both worlds – the serene seclusion of the countryside and the invigorating proximity to the sea. In conclusion, my stay at the seaside country house was a truly rejuvenating experience.

Nous avons loué cette charmante maison afin de passer un week-end surprise pour les 60 ans de mon père. Nous recherchions une location avec une grande pièce à vivre afin de pouvoir dîner en famille, tout en ayant assez d’espaces pour que chaque « petite famille » ait sa propre chambre (3 couples + une famille avec deux jeunes enfants). Cahier des charges rempli. Propriété bénéficiant d’un jardin agréable (apprécié pour la chasse aux œufs), dans un secteur calme. Pas de vis à vis. Cadre agreable et naturel pour de belles balades. Proche de tous commerces. Accueil chaleureux : une bouteille de cidre et de jus de pomme, ainsi qu’une tarte nous attendaient au frais. Propriétaire aux petits soins, qui prend la peine de nous communiquer les commodités et lieux de promenades à proximité pour faciliter notre séjour. Expérience à renouveler.

Sehr gute Gastronomie in der Umgebung und so freundliche Menschen! Wochenmärkte und täglicher Fischverkauf an der Küste von St. Varengville laden ein, die normannische Küche selbst nach zu kochen. Das Haus und der Garten bieten Freiraum zum Sein für Alle - für Kinder, Eltern und Haustiere. Das Haus hat „Seele“ und Charme. Ein paar Reparaturen stehen an, dann ist es perfekt.

Wir haben uns in dem Haus sehr wohl gefühlt. Ein Fehler an einem Heizkörper wurde sofort durch den ortsansässigen Dienst sehr schnell behoben. Leider war der kurze Zugang zur Küste durch eine Baustelle am Leuchtturm nicht zugänglich, aber es gab andere, wenn auch weitere Wege.
