DESCRIPTION
Enjoy a 7-night stay for 10 guests in the historic tower wing of a 16th-century château in Normandy, France. This experience combines a private residency in the ancestral home of Alexis de Tocqueville with a signature traditional French dinner prepared by a private chef within the estate. Your stay includes access to 14 acres of manicured gardens, a private tennis court, and an elevator-equipped tower wing, providing a high-status home base just minutes from Omaha Beach and the historic World War II sites of the Normandy coast.
The château is still owned by Tocqueville’s family members and serves as a living piece of political history. The tower wing offers a unique architectural experience, blending 16th-century charm with modern convenience. Outside, the 14-acre estate provides a private sanctuary featuring expansive gardens and a tennis court for guest use. Located 3.5 hours from Paris, the property offers a quiet and secluded atmosphere while remaining central to the region’s most significant landmarks.
The estate is positioned a few miles from the beaches of Normandy, allowing for easy exploration of Omaha Beach and other pivotal D-Day locations. Beyond the coast, the château serves as an ideal jumping-off point for day trips to Mont-Saint-Michel, the ancient abbey rising from the sea, and the medieval city of Bayeux. Guests can spend their days viewing the 11th-century Bayeux Tapestry or relaxing by the ocean before returning to the château for a traditional multi-course dinner prepared by a private chef using local French ingredients.
