[:from]Autumn is coming to Normandy. It's getting cooler and more unstable. Most swallows have moved south and most holidaymakers have moved east again. In your luggage: lots of souvenirs from an unforgettable holiday in Normandy with your dog. Many people have caught the Normandy virus, and believe me, it is a difficult disease to cure! The only thing that helps against the withdrawal symptoms is to prepare your vacation for next year and book a holiday home on La Bourdonnerie.
Why should I book a private holiday home in Normandy now?
It's simple: holidays with dogs in Normandy are becoming more and more popular, regular guests usually book again immediately after their summer holiday anyway. So in order to secure your dream house in your desired period, you should reserve early. This is even more true if you are dependent on the school holidays because of the children. Not only the summer holidays, but also the Pentecost holidays and Easter holidays are increasingly in high demand. Pretty holiday homes with dogs are still available for almost all holiday dates on La Bourdonnerie. But even if you travel outside of the holidays, you shouldn't wait too long to plan your vacation. Holidays with dogs in Normandy are particularly popular in the early and late season.
When should I go on holiday with my dog in Normandy?
Have you never been to Normandy but would like to have a private holiday in one of our holiday homes? But you're not sure when you want to travel? Well, it's always beautiful in Normandy. The summers are rather moderately warm and, thanks to a light breeze from the sea, it never gets humid, as you know from Germany. That's why many people who are active in sports and enjoy hiking vacation in Normandy. If you suffer from extreme heat, Normandy is also the best holiday destination. The spring months of April, May and June or in the fall of September and October are ideal for holidays with dogs. The beautiful nature surrounding your holiday home La Bourdonnerie invites you to take part in a variety of activities. You are allowed to go to most beaches in the area in the low season with your dog without any restrictions - and at low tide you usually have the long sandy beach all to yourself. The water is warm enough for your furry friend to splash around in.
Summer, sun, beach – enjoy Normandy to the fullest
Speaking of the beach: your children will also enjoy the beach! Building sandcastles or whizzing up and down on the sand yachts in Bretteville-sur-Ay are just two of the activities you can do if you're on holiday with the whole family. And of course the sea invites you to swim. The water quality is excellent and the bathing beach in Saint-Germain-sur-Ay, just a few kilometers from your holiday home, is guarded. The dog is also allowed, so nothing stands in the way of a carefree family vacation.
Take advantage of the quiet time – come to Normandy in November and December!
Is the time until next spring too long? Then just travel this fall and winter. November is a real insider tip for dog vacationers and in December you can experience the pre-Christmas atmosphere on the Cotentin. Significantly quieter than you are used to from German Advent, but no less atmospheric. Even small towns are decorated with beautiful lights and you can find Christmas products at the small but lovely Christmas markets in the region. Good to know: Two houses are still available on La Bourdonnerie on New Year's Eve 2019/2020. The rural town of Vesley is quiet and tranquil, private fireworks displays rarely take place. The French prefer to celebrate with good food and drink. This way, you and your dog can experience a peaceful turn of the year. Don't forget to stock up on fish and seafood for the New Year in one of the supermarkets or at a weekly market - the selection is never more plentiful!
