About 1 week. Why not Rome?! Or any other large city in Italy. |
Quiet house in the city centre of Caen, Normandy.
Our House is a 1950s house situated on a quiet one way street. About 110 m2 on 3 levels. We have a fully equiped kitchen, two bedrooms, one sofa bed in the living room, two toilets, one bathroom.
There is also a terrace at the back of the house overlooking the garden (100m2).
The best way to reach Caen if you arrive by plane is probably to take a "Ouibus" or "Flixbus", taking you straight from the airports -Orly or Roissy- to Caen bus station. Then a short ride by bus or tram, and you'll be home!
You can take a train too, with a connection in Paris St Lazare station. Paris is just 2 hours by train from Caen.
The house is close to shops and located near a large park, "la Vallée des Jardins".
Normandie Impressionniste Festival 2024 is back!
Lots of exhibitions in and around Caen.

The Memorial Museum is worth a visit if you're interested in World War 2 and the Cold War. (It's the most visited museum in France outside Paris) It is a 20-minute walk through the park to get there.
You can reach the city center on foot in 20 minutes through the castle grounds.
Caen is 20kms from the sea.
Our favorite beach: Merville-Franceville, family friendly and very easy to access, an international kitesurf spot!
Ouistreham is also very pleasant.
It is possible to go there by bike on the cycling routes along the canal, in around 1 hour.
20 min from Bayeux, a great little town with buildings from the Middle Ages, and of course the famous Tapestry telling about William the Conqueror invasion of Britain! (1066)
30 min from Arromanches to start your discovery of the landing beaches.
40 min from Suisse Normande, a paradise for hiking, kayaking and cycling (Clécy, Thury-Harcourt, ...)
1 hour drive from Deauville, Honfleur and also 1 hour for Le Havre, for those interested in post WW2 reconstruction architecture (Auguste Perret architecture)
1 hour also to access the bay of Mt St Michel.
1h45 by car to reach Brittany, St Malo.
...and about 2 hours by train to have a day-out in Paris!

Estilo de vida
We 've travelled mainly in Europe, but in North and central America too. We enjoy visiting cities as much as the countryside. We are interested in architecture, museums and other sights.
We love reading, watching films, going to concerts. Jean-Bernard practises golf on a very regular base, and we enjoy hiking and cycling too.
We would consider any offer and will reply to your e-mails.
We keep our house clean and tidy and would do the same with yours.
Nous avons voyagé surtout en Europe, mais aussi en Amérique centrale et du nord. Nous apprécions des endroits très différents comme les grandes villes et leur architecture, les musées, les concerts...mais aussi la nature.
Nous aimons lire et regarder des films. Nous marchons souvent pour découvrir les environs. Nous pratiquons la randonnée et apprécions les sorties à vélo.
Jean-Bernard pratique très régulièrement le golf.
Nous considérerons toute offre avec attention et nous engageons à répondre à d'éventuels e-mails.

GBSE004978It was so easy to communicate with Celine and Jean-Bernard and we had a wonderful trip to their lovely home. Caen is a nice city with lots to do and the surrounding area with the Normandy beaches and countryside has much to offer. We had a great holiday and recommend this swap to others.

NL22729We waren heel tevreden over de ruil, het huis was fijn, de tuin heerlijk, en Caen is een prachtige stad. De bewoners hadden veel informatie achtergelaten over mooie wandelingen en fietstochten in de omgeving, waar we veel aan hadden. We hebben een heerlijke tijd gehad in dit huis!
