Situated a few kilometres from Honfleur and Deauville, only an hour and a half from Paris, the Domaine d’Ablon welcomes guests all year round, offering a unique concept in prestigious holiday villas and apartments respecting the tradition of the Normandy region, where luxury, relaxation and comfort are paramount. Each of our villas offers an intimate, unique and welcoming atmosphere where past meets present to offer the best in comfort to our guests, whether they come for a weekend or a longer family holiday, with friends or as a couple.

Our luxurious villas are surrounded by 5 hectares of verdant parkland and colourful, fragrant gardens, allowing you to immerse yourself in the heart and tradition of Normandy.

Each villa has been built in the traditional way by skilled craftsmen using tried and tested materials, respecting the Normandy architecture of the fifteenth century: thatched roofs, half timbering, flint, granite, bricks, ancient woods, terracotta or wooden floors, top quality fittings, cast iron baths… Luxury and simplicity come together as one, and the villas are endowed with real soul, for a perfect combination of character and timeless charm.

Our luxury apartments and villas reveal a refined and unique décor, co-ordinated by Laureen de Rouvre, which extends to the smallest detail: bedlinen, works of art, wall hangings, ancient furniture, antiques, floral arrangements… This ambiance respects the memory of the Pays d’Auge region and Normandy without spoiling it. Everything has been carefully thought of to create the feeling of a family house with muted luxury.
