The house is located in the coastal back-country about 10 km from the St. Martin de Brehal beaches and about 45 min from the famous Mont St. Michel. The Abtei La Lucerne d'Outremer from the 12th century is nearby. You can visit the Channel Islands (Chausey and Jersey) across from Granville by ferry. There are also flights to the Channel Islands from a small airport near the city. There is also a museum dedicated to the great fashion designer Christian Dior in Granville, his birth place. The nearby bell-foundry city of Villedieu is famous for its copper manufacturing, where world-renown pots and pans are manufactured. A little further away, Coutances with gothic cathedrals, the sand dunes of Barneville Carteret, parks and palaces south of Cherbourg and - a good hour away by car - Bayeux with cathedral and the famous historical rug.
