Bolleville

Bolleville is a small rural village in Seine-Maritime, Normandy, located in the Pays de Caux area, just a few kilometres from Fécamp and the Alabaster Coast. This agricultural region is known for its traditional clos-masures farms, enclosed by earthen banks planted with trees that shelter crops and buildings from the sea wind. The gently rolling countryside, dotted with fields and pastures, provides a peaceful setting ideal for walking or cycling. The nearby coastline allows for easy day trips to the chalk cliffs and pebble beaches typical of the Normandy shore, particularly around Fécamp, well known for its harbour and its heritage linked to cod fishing and the Bénédictine distillery. The region's oceanic climate, with mild summers and temperate winters, suits a slower-paced holiday centred on the countryside and rural heritage. Bolleville makes a quiet base from which to explore the Pays de Caux, its local markets, regional produce such as cider and Norman cheeses, and the historic towns within easy reach.
