Villa Ma Maison

Deauville is distinguished by its title as the closest seaside resort to Paris. An upscale resort town made famous as a tourist destination in the 19th century and composed of pretty buildings typical of the region, it is located in Normandy on the so-called Côte Fleurie (Flowery Coast). Incredibly chic and boasting a race course, a gorgeous harbour bobbing with boats and yachts, a Grand Casino, two film festivals, a long list of famous visitors, and many films and works of art made or set in the town, Deauville is both lovely and fascinating. Villa Deauville, a charming historic home set within this gorgeous town is one of the distinctly pretty buildings in the area and is found right in the centre of town, just 900m from the sea. Sleeping up to ten guests in five bedrooms with three bathrooms, this stunning villa has availability still for July and August, making it an ideal place to enjoy both a perfect seaside holiday in France and day-trips into Paris.

Cabourg is one of Normandy’s most picturesque seaside resorts. A simple fishing and farming village until the middle of the 19th century, it was transformed by Parisian businessman Henri Durand-Morimbau, who had a vision of what it could be once railway lines made the town easily accessible to Parisians looking to escape the city. Under Durand-Morimbau, the town was completely redesigned and turned into a rather stunning place, full of architectural gems. Boasting lots of ornate buildings, the architectural character of Cabourg is eclectic, Belle Époque, and opulent. A wonderful place to enjoy the seaside during a vacation in Normandy and a unique town with a distinct look, there is something almost a little Gothic about it all and certainly a singular and cinematic feeling. One can feel as though they have fallen back through time or ended up in some sort of fantastical film as they wander about the place. So, find a villa in Cabourg and come enjoy this gorgeous stretch of the coast while admiring the backdrop of steep roofs and turrets with elaborate finials, balconies, intricate details, the multicoloured brick work and wood-panelled facades, and gardens full of blooms.

Not all beach-lovers are also sun-worshippers. Some people love sand underfoot, the sound of lapping waves, gorgeous scenery, and magical sunsets reflected in the waters while they have the beach almost to themselves and they do not have to worry about sweating or sunburns. Some people love the beach during the autumn and, even, winter months.

If you fall into this category, then we highly suggest browsing our villas in Brittany and vacation rentals in Normandy. The already striking and wind-swept beaches of this part of the world are of the kind that are just as remarkable and admirable when the sky is cloudy overhead or the air is crisp, as they are on perfect sunny days.
