Exceptionally located on the port, beautiful house, terrace, 50m from the sea

Newly opened home (April 2011) – Exceptionally located on the port, this beautiful individual house is only a few meters away from the sea. It has a large peaceful and half-covered sunny terrace which offers a unique open outlook.
« Le havre portais » is a luxury holiday house, convenient and comfortable that sleeps up to 5 people in 3 bedrooms. It is the perfect place for children and grown-ups, en famille or among friends, wanting to breathe in the sea air. From the house, you'll had a ringside seat to enjoy the magnificent view of the port, the fishing and sailing boats' traffic and the opposite banks full of shops and restaurants. A few meters away, the seafront appears on low tide to fishermen's' houses and to the Vauban tower.
Last house on Baron Gérard quay before the seafront, "le havre portais” will make you appreciate all year long the “outdoor-indoor” way of life on its south-west-facing terrace under the glass roof or under the awning. From all living rooms and bedrooms,

Lovely property with harbour views
Lovely views, conveniently placed for exploring the Normandy D day landing beaches. Near to restaurants and village shops. Local bakery is excellent just across the bridge. The house is fully equipped, the third bedroom is very small. We enjoyed our stay here immensely.

The perfect location for a holiday in Normandie
We had een fantastic holiday in Port-en-Bessin Huppain. Our hostess, Astrid, was very friendly and helpful. The house is wonderful and the view from the terrace is magnificent. Port-en-Bessin Huppain is a lovely and lively village with nice restaurants and boutiques. The boutique of Astrid, La Compagnie Ordinaire De La Mer, is a must visit!

Perfect place to stay in Normandy
We spent a week here. We easily explored Omaha Beach, American cemetery, St Michel, St Malo, Honfleur, etc. It is perfect in every way. Great views of the port, you can walk right to all the restaurants, patisseries, boulangeries. The bedrooms are comfortable and having the extra 1/2 bath downstairs is a plus. The terrace is a gem. Amazing views and you can eat under the covered part even if it is cold or raining. Highly recommend. Communication was excellent.

Most enjoyable stay in Port en Bessin
This is our second time staying here, and it was even better than the first time. There were two fantastic firework displays in the harbour area, one at the start and one at the end of our week here. Local restaurants all good, especially breakfasts. I would thoroughly recommend a stay here to anyone. James.

Super Unterkunft
Herzlicher und unkomplizierter Empfang, großes und sauberes Haus mit fantastischem Blick von der Terrasse oder dem Wintergarten über die Schleuse mit den ein- und ausfahrenden Fischerbooten. Zahlreiche Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Restaurants direkt gegenüber auf der anderen Seite des Hafenbeckens. Sehr empfehlenswert !

Prachtige uitvalsbasis in gezellig dorp
Prachtige locatie met mooi zicht op de bedrijvigheden van de haven. Zéér lekkere sint-jacobsschelpen en oesters in de plaatselijke vismarkt. Praktisch ingericht huisje...de afsluitbare veranda is een pluspunt. Grootwarenhuis in directe nabijheid en klein supermarktje op wandelafstand. Ideale uitvalsbasis voor vele uitstappen naar landingsstranden en 1,5 u rijden naar Mont-Sint-Michel. Kortom: een absolute aanrader!

Great place to stay
I was swayed by the amount of positive reviews and they were right! The terrace is larger than I expected and such a great place to spend time. The town is also prettier than I thought it would be. We hired bikes from the garage and cycled to Bayeux, visited museums, swam, walked, went to the markets in the town. Ice-creams from Le Glacier are v good.

Terrasse sur le port .
Ma femme , nos deux filles jeunes adultes et moi-même , avons passé une très agréable semaine à Port en Bessin . La maison lumineuse avec sa vaste terrasse permet de voir la vie d'un port de pêche . C'est vivant et en même temps paradoxalement cela demeure calme Par ailleurs la maison est confortable . J'ajouterai que l'accueil est chaleureux .

Lovely house in a great location
We had a lovely week. The house is very well equipped, clean and is in a great location. It was nice being able to sit out on the terrace - the glass veranda was excellent as we were able to sit outside whatever the weather. Jean-Luc answered our emails promptly and Astrid was very helpful with local information. We will return sometime.

Séjour de fin d'année au bord de la mer
Nous avons passé un séjour idéal à Port-en-Bessin. La maison est très confortable et idéalement située sur le port, à quelques pas de la plage. Nous avons particulièrement apprécié l'accueil d'Astrid, ses bons conseils et sa disponibilité, la proximité de commerçants très sympathiques et de la halle aux poissons. Location idéale en famille avec un accès aisé à pied. C'est certain, nous reviendrons!

Emplacement idéal!
Maison très agréable et lumineuse, idéalement située à l'extrémité du port. De ce fait, accès très simple à la plage, aux jetées et aux falaises pour des promenades, mais aussi juste en face de la passerelle menant à l'autre rive et donc proche des commerces, cafés et restaurants à pied. Maison très bien isolées et silencieuse, et une terrasse couverte parfaite pour petit déjeuner ou dîner face au port. Un must à Port en Bessin!

Agréable séjour
C'est notre troisième séjour à Port en Bessin, toujours en période hivernale, cette année, durant la semaine encadrant le nouvel an. La location, vaste et confortable, située face à l'animation du port de pêche (les départs et arrivées des bateaux de pêche sont spectaculaires, avec le jeu de l'écluse et du pont tournant, mais également sonores du fait l'attente devant ceux-ci), est proche des commerces et de la Halle aux poissons, et point de départ pour de nombreuses balades à pied et en voiture. Les propriétaires ont répondu rapidement et avec précision à toutes nos questions préliminaires et la personne, Astrid, chargée de la gestion de la maison, a joué son rôle avec efficacité et chaleur. Bref, une location à conseiller.

Lovely location / great sun terrace
House has a great location to local and regional amenities. The Port is busy in the day, but everything is shut by 10.30-11, which makes a quite (sometime too quite stay). House great, the stairs are creaky but you get use to them., we found our double bed VERY firm, but the rest of the house worked really well. The local fish market is amazing a provided lots of interesting food. Getting out and about to beaches and all the locations around the area is very easy as we brought our own car. We would highly recommend this for a family holiday as our teenagers also had lots of fun.
