Home description

Set in idyllic surroundings La Grande Corbiere is approached down a long private driveway where the house lies nestling in the sheltered bowl of a forest, the nearest neighbour being over half a mile away.

For over a century La Grande Corbiere was run as a small traditional family run working Normandy farm. Ten years ago after a period of neglect the present owners embarked on the project of restoring the buildings using original materials and employing traditional building methods.

Lucy is a small hamlet situated on the D1314 road approximately 2 km from the bustling market town of Neufchatel with its excellent variety of shops, bars, restaurants and recreational facilities, not to forget the lively farmers local produce market held every Saturday.

    Further afield within easy driving distance are the towns of Eu with its magnificent royal palace, the adjoining seaside resort of Le Treport with its brightly painted fishing fleet, bars and mouth watering seafood restaurants, and for the gambling minded a magnificent Casino. Fecamp a well known watering hole for yachtsmen with its waterfront bars and restaurants and Benedictine monastery where you can see the famous liquors being made, sample the end product and if your eyes still focus marvel at the magnificent architecture and art collection.
