I’d been looking forward to a long weekend away for some time and the second weekend in June would be the only window of opportunity to take a trip!  After visiting Honfleur, on the Normandy coast line, some years ago, we’d always promised ourselves that we’d go back there.

After much research, with the help of Alistair Sawday and Trip Adivsor!, I found a real gem in La Petite Folie. Catherine and Penny were wonderful hosts – seeing to our every need and providing freshly baked cakes, coffee and tea in the afternoons and a fabulous continental breakfast in the morning.  The room was just beautiful – a lovely mix of 18th Century and modern day furnishing and a wonderful view to the garden and coast line beyond.

So – here are a few images from our time away….

I loved Penny’s choice of decor – très chic!

Day 2 we ventured along the Normandy coastline – beginning at the very fashionable Durbanville – the weather was fair – a bit on the chilly side for June – mustn’t grumble though as at least it was dry!
