La Grange is situated on the edge of the extensive and breathtaking Bay of Mont St Michel. The Mont (the most popular tourist attraction outside of Paris) is well worth a visit and is jusdt 25 minutes by car. The house is situated between St Hilaire Du Harcouet (5 miles further inland) and Ducey. St Hilaire has a busting open air market every Wednesday and numerous bars restaurants, shpos etc. Ducey, 3 miles in the opposite direction wins awards each year for it's floral displays. The nearest well equipped town to the house is Isigny Le Buat, which has all the conveniences and is 1/2 hour on foot through some pleasant woodland roads.
