Description:This newly renovated seaside villa, in a popular Normandy village, is in a quiet spot. At the end of the street, is a 12km sand beach, stretching south to the historic town of Granville, birthplace of Christian Dior. n nThe house is a very comfortable family house, suitable for very large families or several families sharing. The house sleeps 12 very comfortably, in 6 bedrooms, and has a large enclosed private garden, good for running around, football and dogs. n nThere are four bedrooms with twin beds that can be converted into superking size beds if preferred and two other bedrooms, one with a queen size 140cm double bed and the other with a 160cm double bed. They are hotel quality beds, which are extremely comfortable. There are also two wooden cot beds (under 2s). n nThe bedrooms are situated on both floors, which allows for some extra privacy. The two downstairs bedrooms both have the twin/superking option, with a bathroom and loo shared between the two rooms. Upstairs are two bathrooms one with bath and loo, and one with a shower and a separate loo. n nThere are also two high chairs, and we provide potties, a baby bath, extra high chairs etc if needed. The house is also equipped with plastic plates, spoons and knives for children. On request we can provide a baby pack, including nappies, baby food etc. In fact apart from a baby buggy/pram, we try to provide everything you will need. There is a good range of toys and games for different ages, including a wendy house, trampoline, and all the necessary buckets, spades and toys for the beach. n nWe also supply all the towels for the beach and house, all linens and a 10kg washing machine, 8kg tumble drier, and all the shower and house cleaning products. Our aim is that you should be able to travel as light as possible. There is a good selection of books and films (over 400) in the house, both for adults and children, and Sky TV and French TNT. n nSt Martin is a really fantastic place for children of all ages. There is an amazing range of activities for ages from 3 . At the bottom of the street is the sailing club, which also does sand yachting, kite surfing etc. Next to it is the golf course. In the other direction is the riding school. If you take the coast road to Granville you pass another golf course and the airfield, where the brave can go parachute jumping or take a ULM flight over the bay of Mont St Michel. n nThere are also plenty of interesting and fun days out you can d nThe zoo and landscaped part, at Champrepus nThe Elf Forest and Paint Ball at Cerences nSienne Botanical Park at La Baleine nThe Andouillerie, selling regional products at St Denis Le Gast nThe lake, and junior leisure park, and horse drawn cart rides at St Martin de Brc3a9hal nThe marine museum at Regneville sur Mer nThe Abbey of Lucerne and Abbey of Hambye nThe Bay of Mont Saint Michel, ceramics factory nMaison de la Baie, permanent exhibition of life in the Bay, at Vains St Leonard nGuided crossings of the Bay of Mont St Michel and of Mont St Michel nCarnival at Granville the weekend before Mardi Gras nCinema, Casino, Museum of Modern Art, Old Granville Museum, Aquarium du Roc, Butterfly Garden, Mineral Palace, Shelfish Kingdon and over 30 restaurants in Granville and another dozen or even closer (less than 10km). n nIf any of your party wishes to bring dogs, we have two dog kennels and runs, and there are great walks in every direction. Because the house is on the edge of the village it is very quiet, and our neighbour is a spa for horses, where the French International teams come and do their final preparation in July. Every morning from 6am to 9.30am, all summer long, you can go and watch the horses gallop along the beach through the surf. n nThis coast-line has the largest tides in Europe, and when the tides are very high, you can go a couple of kms up the coast and watch the salt marshes flood, which is impressive to see. The sea where we are is relatively shallow, at all but high tide, and you can see the mussel beds rising out of the sea and eat really fresh mussels in the village restaurant. It also means it is a good place to learn to swim and when the tide is out you can stand in the sea and watch the fish swimming round you.... more info >>
