Château le Chenevière
Smack bang between Bayeux and Omaha beach, this gorgeous 18th-century castle is a plush and convenient place to base yourself for the D-Day beaches. “Understated grandeur” best describes the rooms, which are peppered with a savvy mix of antique and modern furniture and fabrics. The outdoor pool and spa are perfect places for unwinding after a day’s sightseeing—as are the hotel’s two restaurants: one serving bistro fare in a winter garden; the other serving fine-dining dishes in a botanical-themed dining room; both using fruit and veg from the château’s garden. Main courses in the bistro start at 19€; fine-dining fixed-price menus start at 72€.
