BETWEEN THE DUNES AND THE SEA
The house is the last one on a path, which leads you straight into the dunes and to the sea.
The house is located in the outskirts of a small village called Hatainville, approximately 2 km from Carteret. The other residences on the path are located away from the house, which makes the location unique: It`s surrounded by a meadow, a couple of beautiful horses and lots of wild rabbits. A small path leads you directly into the dunes, and after a few hundred meters you find yourself at an extraordinary viewpoint (80 m above sea level), overlooking the sea and the wild dunes that stretches as far as 16 km. from South to North. It’s a protected natural area and therefor completely wild, without any man made constructions.
The previous owners of the house, including a Dutch and a Belgic, were all searching for a place, where they could be in close contact with the wild nature. After more than one year of searching for a country house, we arrived to find this charming gem. Every time we are here we always discover something new. Whether it’s in the nature or in the region, the place always brings us happiness and new memories. From the large South facing terrace, you can enjoy your lunch made from local products sold in the different markets close by. After lunch you can unwind in the wooden armchairs or sunbeds in the quiet garden, while listening to the soundtrack of the nature. The house is also charming during the colder seasons. After a long walk where you are exposed to the strong forces of the nature, you can snuggle up beside the fireplace that efficiently heats up the entire house. But it's never too much cold because of the gulf stream we take sea bath often until the 1 Nov.
The wooden house was originally imported from Norway, and is decorated in harmony with the architecture, inspired by Scandinavia and the sea (one of the previous owners were a famous sailor). The ground floor of the house is where you will find the living room, the dining room, a large kitchen, bedroom and the toilet. On the first floor there are 2 bedrooms and a bathroom with shower and a separate bathtub and second toilet. All three bedrooms have double beds, and a sofa bed on the first floor can accommodate two persons. The sofa in the living room accommodates one person, and an inflatable bed is suitable for one person.
