Martin Pêcheur : Charming house in Port en Bessin

Characteristic and comfortable Norman house with garden in the town of Port en Bessin!  A perfect location: you can walk straight to the harbour with its pleasant restaurants and shops.  Take a dive in the sea in the morning and visit the daily fish market.  Buy fish, seafood or lobsters, straight from the sea. Prepare them on the barbecue in your garden!   Port en Bessin is located near the world-famous D-day landing beaches.  It's the number one fishing harbour of Normandy. The port city was visited often by famous painters like Seurat, who found inspiration for their paintings in the special atmosphere here.   Port-en-Bessin was an important link between the world-famous beaches Omaha Beach and Pointe du Hoc.  There are still many things to see here that remind of the Allied advance, like various wrecks from the war. The film ‘The Longest Day’ was also filmed here.   You couldn't find a more central location for a visit to the museums and invasion beaches. The medieval town of Bayeux (9 km) is just a 10-minute drive away. It offers many sights (a beautiful cathedral, famous 'Tapisserie de Bayeux' museums) and a very nice city centre. FH2020
