Four gems within reach
Each neighbouring destination reveals a character of its own, shaped by the tides and by late-nineteenth-century elegance.
an exceptional seaside town
Le Tréport & its giant cliffs
Set against the highest chalk cliffs in Europe, Le Tréport lives to the rhythm of its working fishing harbour, its unpretentious seafood restaurants and its bracing sea air.
Take the historic funicular — free of charge, cut straight into the rock — up to the cliff top for a striking view where the blue of the sea meets the Norman horizon.
architecture & seaside poetry
Mers-les-Bains and its Belle Époque quarter
Step back in time along the Esplanade du Général Leclerc, lined with listed villas whose façades are adorned with delicate ceramics and colourful balconies.
royal heritage & hidden history
The town of Eu, home of Louis-Philippe
A short walk from the estate, the Château d’Eu and its handsome wooded park tell the private story of the last King of the French, Louis-Philippe.
Explore this red-brick architectural gem restored by Viollet-le-Duc, admire the stately Collégiale Notre-Dame and wander the cobbled lanes of one of the “Plus Beaux Détours de France”.
