at Carolles is shadowed by the wonderful cliffs which offer
a stunning view of the whole area including Mont St.

There
are a number of restaurants and the picturesque village
of Carolles, situated atop the cliffs, is just a couple of
kms away.
Our apartment at

in one direction and across the bay of Mont St Michel
to Cancale in the other. |
