Très belle maison sur la plage
Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour dans cette maison idéalement située face à la mer. La grande véranda offre une vue panoramique sur la mer. La plage devant la maison est immense. La maison est confortable et très bien équipée (il ne manque rien). Accueil excellent. Les enfants ne voulaient pas partir et les adultes veulent revenir !

About the host

Hosted by La Galiote

Host profile image
The current third landlord brought the following modifications to La Galiote:

- added a veranda with aluminium shutters for roof and windows;
- replaced the garage by a large laundry room with a hot shower, quite handy when coming back from the beach;
- insulated thermally and phonically the house;
- set up an electrical heating system in addition to the chimney;
- set up aluminium doors, windows and frames with double glazing;
- opened a gate on beach side, in addition to the car gate on village side;
- added a small terrace facing the sea;
- built the traditional wall with Caen-limestone separating the garden from the streets along 70 meters;
- re-built entirely the roof cover with natural slates and copper; and renovated the three water rooms.

Why they chose this property

The Villa has been built in 1970 for leisure by the so-called "Queen of the Isigny Caramel", thus named because she was directing the factory of the most famous caramels in France, in Isigny-sur-Mer, 44 km away from Asnelles. The factory still functions and may be visited.
The “Queen” being married to Mr. André Galliot, the house was called “La Galiote”, probably also in respect of its maritime location, because a "galiote" is a deep-sea vessel (XVIth-XIXth century).
