5 good zen tips #3

We cast off on the Cotentin peninsula

Where ? At Le Landemer hotel, in Urville-Nacqueville.

Why is it zen? Because this 150-year-old hotel, which has just had a second life, looks out to sea and marks kilometer zero of the customs officers' path in La Hague, along a wild coast of more than 80 km, between moors, sea, dunes and cliffs. So you can breathe in the iodized air from the balcony of your room, you walk the fine sand beach beaten by the winds of the English Channel and you cast off for the day on the islands of Jersey or Guernsey. If it's not the end of the world, it looks like it!

Let's go ! Double room from 90€. www.le-landemer.com. More info on the area:www.lahague-tourisme.com.

And also in the same spirit:The Shambala, in southern Turkey, with a dozen cabins overlooking the turquoise sea.
