One of my favorite French scenes - sheep grazing on the salt-marshes near Mont Saint-Michel. A few sheep wouldn't have been a big deal, but as we neared the bay we passed this field where I estimated some 10,000 sheep were out grazing. What you see here is just one small frame from a 180-degree panoramic view.

As it turns out, these are pretty special sheep, known as agneau de pré-salé (salt meadow lamb). Their meat has a very distinctive flavor and tenderness, which we were able to sample at our dinner on the Mont.

"We had a nice stay, it is a beautiful house with a nice host. The description on the website could be better. It is better to rely on the photos than the text regarding the number of beds and bathrooms. Good starting point to travel to other cities or sights. But also a great place to stay at the house and enjoy the pool."

5/5 Excellent

"Position unbeatable. 30 minute Walk across paddocks to Mont St Michel breathtaking, as are views of it around the district. Staff friendly. Very clean. Nice breakfast but no food aside from that. 3 k walk to food. Many restaurants there but not very close. "
