Normandy Cottages

St. Malo de la Lande.

Four Holiday homes to rent in sunny Normandy, in a small village called St. Malo de la Lande, which is around 5 minutes from the nearest beach by car.

St. Malo de la Lande is a small village and  is around 5 minutes from the nearest beach by car. There are  Nice fruit and veg markets in the village 2 to 3 times per week. Pharmacy, Doctors, Churches, Mont St. Michel (70 Kms). D-Day beaches at 40 Kms. There is a coastal town called Agon-Coutainville and just off this lovely little town, there are some beautiful little islands called Chaussey Islands. You also have Jersey just opposite.

There are two farms opposite us and they welcome  visitors. You can take the children to see the daily parade of the cows leaving their field just opposite the cottages. They walk just in front of the cottages and into the farm to be milked. You can even take the children to watch the milking. They have chickens, rabbits, ducks etc. The children love this. They sometimes have fresh eggs for sale and other farm produce.
