"La Ferme Troussebourg", is ideally situated close to the superb amenities of Honfleur and Deauville/Trouville, whilst the 17th century farmhouse also enjoys the tranquillity of 30 private acres of outstandingly beautiful countryside.

Honfleur, (10 minutes drive), is a picturesque fishing port and artists' colony, where the visitor, exploring its ancient cobbled streets, will find many charming old buildings housing art galleries, antique and craft shops, museums and numerous excellent and inexpensive restaurants (there are reputed to be over a hundred restaurants in Honfieur). On market days the squares, with their open‑air cafes, are a riot of colour and bustle.

The nine mile (14km) coastal drive to sophisticated Deauville is dramatically beautiful and takes only about 20 minutes from Honfleur; its wide sandy beaches, magnificent seafront buildings, casino and superb shops make Deauville one of France's most elegant towns. Trouville, on the other side of the bridge, is more informal whilst offering many fine restaurants, beach activities, casino and open‑air fish market.

Rouen, (a 79km drive), is a busy port and the capital of Upper Normandy ‑ the site of the inquisition of Joan of Arc in 1431; there are many fascinating old buildings and monuments to visit.

Caen, with its powerfully emotive war museum, is a 57km drive.

Bayeux , site of the famous tapestry and Museum of the Battle of Normandy, is a distance of approximately 80km.

Le Havre, under 40km from the farm via 'Le Pont Normandie', takes about 45 minutes.

Paris, (and Euro‑Disney) is 200km on the A13 motorway.

Giverny (near Vernon ‑ 140 km), situation of Monet's House and Garden, attracts thousands of visitors from all over the world every year.

"La Ferme Troussebourg's" close proximity to some of Normandy's finest attractions make it a perfect place for visitors, whether their interests are history, art, sports, nature, just walking in the lovely countryside or relaxing in one of the many excellent restaurants within a few minutes drive of the farm (no need for a long drive home late at night!).

A swim in our own pool followed by a barbecue supper are pleasant and relaxing ways to spend a long summer evening 'at home' in surroundings of tremendous character and atmosphere.
