I like dreaming in front of our beautiful landscapes, gardening, cooking, rescuing mistreated animals, bringing old objects back to life, walking in the Bay, on the beaches or in the forest, helping children "blocked" with learning; at 60, I'm enjoying my retirement.
I like people to feel at home; the garden is large, laid out in all different terraces and the house is not large but warm. The animals I saved have become adorable with everyone, playful and very cuddly

Tips

  • The tree climbing course and the escape game in the Salomon wood 50 meters away offer good memories for young and old.

  • Walk with the shepherd and his herd or get up close to the seals resting on the sand under the magical all-season sky of the Baie de Somme.

  • The market is famous and accessible on foot by the quay (800 meters). Many delicatessens, tasting corners, sale of local products in the center (between 600m and 800m)
