Our Property
An authentic 18th century home with plenty of charm and authentic period interior decoration. This is the home of Jeanne Provost, a Parisian actress from La Comedie Francaise who was famous for her role in Topaze. Large rooms with spectacular views of the sea. Walled in huge garden. Quiet. All bedroom windows have identical views in top floor. Historic area with amazing hiking and beaches available. Shopping is walking distance and beach is 3km. Plenty to do for all ages. House has large downstairs living area and access to kitchen for guests. You can rent the entire house or contact us if you prefer to rent a single room or a few rooms.
We are the grandchildren of Mme Provost.
Barneville-Carteret is an unspoiled and unchanged area of Normandy with clean air close to the sea. You can take a ferry to neighboring English islands. It is less than 4 hour drive from Paris and 45 minute from Cherbourg. Historic WWII beaches are 45 minutes away as well as Caen, Sainte Mere Eglise, and a bit further but fine for day trip, Mont St Michel. Normandy has tremendous historical background from the Celtic era to WWII. There are chateaux to visit, local farms, exquisite scenery, hiking trails (randonees), local markets to visit in nearby towns, and fantastic views along the coast from Barneville up to le Nez de Jobourg to Cherbourg to the coastline above the WWII beaches. All of these are day trips from the house. One can visit Mont St Michel as a day trip as well.
