Our home sits in the small, quiet village of Montanel, Normandy, on the Brittany border. It provides you an opportunity to frequent the abbey (Mont St. Michel); a short 15 minute drive away. It is close to several villages: Antrain is a 10-minute drive west...St James, founded by William the Conqueror, is 15 minutes due east and Pontorson is halfway between home and the abbey. Each of these towns can fulfill all your needs ... boulangerie ... patisserie ... boucherie ... groceries ... gas ... banks and great restaurants! Montanel is a very quiet area sitting in the fields of Normandy, and Arc en Ciel opens into the fields for long walks, hiking, cycling, rest and rejuvenation.
