Bottom Line

Le Manoir Des Impressionnistes certainly makes quite an impression upon first sight: the 18th-century manor house surrounded by pretty gardens and ancient woods could easily be the subject of a postcard or a magazine cover. Its setting on a hill overlooking the Seine estuary is quite special, too, and some rooms enjoy lovely sea-view sunsets. The on-site spa in a converted farmhouse is well received, as is the restaurant that uses locally sourced ingredients. There's no pool, but rates are nevertheless reasonable for such charming package.

Le Manoir Des Impressionnistes

Scene

Charming and historic 18th-century manor house in picture-perfect setting

Guests pass through a set of iron gates and up a long sloping driveway before being met with the enchanting half-timbered facade of Le Manoir Des Impressionnistes. The hotel is housed in an 18th-century Norman country home perched on a hillside overlooking the Seine estuary and is surrounded by a picture-perfect country garden backed by ancient woodland. Inside, one gets a palpable sense of history, emphasized by thick wooden beams, fine antique furnishings, and gilt-framed oil paintings. The mood in this family-run boutique property is intimate and hushed, with little noise to be heard beyond creaking floorboards and the occasional cuckoo-bird outside.

Location

Set on hill overlooking Seine estuary near beach town of Honfluer in northwest France

Le Manoir Des Impressionnistes is set on a hill overlooking the Seine estuary, just outside the port of Honfluer in northwest France. It's about a 10-minute drive to the Seine estuary nature reserve with mudflats and reed beds for bird spotting. From here, the D-day landing beaches are just down the coast. The hotel is a 15-minute walk into Honfluer; Deauville, a popular weekend getaway for Parisians is a 20-minute drive away. The historical city of Caen is under an hour away by car and Paris takes around two hours depending on traffic.

Rooms

Individually styled rooms, some with views of sunsets over the sea

The hotel has just 10 spacious and individually decorated rooms. Standard rooms tend towards homey, country-style decor, while their high-end counterparts are more lavish with classical styling and antique furnishings. All rooms come with free Wi-Fi and flat-screen TVs with DVD players (there's a DVD library at the front desk). Bathrooms are beautifully finished in slate or marble tiles and all have tubs, robes, and Carven brand toiletries. All rooms have either garden or sea views; the latter are often treated to gorgeous sunsets.

Features

Spa in converted farmhouse includes sauna and steam room

The hotel's restaurant is housed in a finely restored, wood-paneled room with period touches and a large limestone fireplace. Meals can also be taken on the terrace overlooking the sea during warmer months. The menu is largely based on produce from the hotel's own garden, while the rest of the ingredients come from local farms. The expansive grounds are dotted with huge old trees and house a rusted greenhouse and an antique washhouse as well as a small counter-current pool for swimming. There is also a spa on-site in a converted farmhouse with a sauna, a steam bath, and a range of treatments.
