The Sanctuary — the stone mill house, its deck and the fire pit on the sunlit lawn

Romantic getaways in Normandy

A romantic getaway in Normandy: a table for two on the deck, a fire on the lawn and the stream running all night. The nearest neighbour is hidden behind the trees.

Four bedrooms sleeping eight, three bathrooms, and a garden that belongs to your group alone — space to share meals, relax together and explore Normandy as a couple, with family, friends or a small group of colleagues.

The house sits on a quiet lane in the Sienne valley near Gavray-sur-Sienne, in the Manche department of Normandy. It feels wonderfully remote — yet the bay of Mont-Saint-Michel, the coast and the D-Day beaches are all within an easy day's reach.
