In Tourlaville, 5km southeast of Cherbourg, a chateau with an elegant facade and attractive grounds (open all year) was the setting for a 16th century sex scandal, when Julien and Marguerite Ravalet, children of the owners, ran off together and lived as lovers until they were convicted of incest and executed in 1603.

by Jeanlyon If you are in Cherbourg with your car and have some time, then drive West along the top of the peninsula to Cap de la Hague - a quaint little fishing port with an enormous lighthouse and a delightful restaurant down by the water's edge. Leave a Comment

La Pernelle: on the edge of this village is an amazing viewpoint. Stand on the hill and enjoy the panorama; put a coin in the slot for commentary; look at one of France's smallest town halls; and walk down the path to the replica of the Lourdes grotto. Then look at those views some more. Enjoy them even longer over a drink or meal at the Panoramique restaurant. Leave a Comment
