The 18th century Château La Chenevière had a major role to play as a forward command post for the German and subsequently British armies in World War II due to its location on the main road from Bayeux to Arromanches.
A listed monument, this stunning château was built in the 18th century on an estate dating back to the time of the Norman conquest and is located just outside the village of Audrieu, 15 minutes’ drive from Bayeux and Caen.
Starting in the historic port city of Cherbourg, this seven-night holiday encompasses the coastline of Normandy, from the landing beaches around Arromanches, as far as Le Havre in the east.
