Listed as one of the most beautiful villages of France, the countryside is also very rich :

Like a figurehead of a viking ship, Barfleur is still a traditional fishing harbour full of history ,
Enjoy the french way of life and walk alongside the coast on registred footpaths (GR 223) toward Gatteville lighthouse which stands 200 feet high and faces St catherine's lighthouse on the British South Coast.

D days American landing beaches are 40 miles away, Vauban 's Tatihou fortress now registred as world heritage site, « Cité de la mer  » in Cherbourg with a museum dedicated to submarine discoveries and prospections,Bayeux tapestry and famous Mont Saint Michel (80 miles), every thing for a successful stay.
