Veules les Roses is a charming seaside village in Normandie
Enjoy a great and authentic day in Veules les Roses, named Plus beaux villages des Français (nicest French Hamlet) in a famous French tv show!
Start your day by a short drive from Dieppe (only 12miles) with your driver to reach one of the jewel of the Alabaster coast : The picturesque village of Veules les Roses. On the verge of the Veules, the smallest French river, it’s a little and typical hamlet with its half timbered cottages and lots of ancient unspoiled charm. We bet you will fall in love with this romantic place just like many painters, writers and poets did before you! After your charming walk, go follow the river alongside its authentic mills to finally approach the sea. Before your swim, take a break in the Impressionists’ garden. Admire lights, colors. You know now why this place inspired so many famous artists. Victor Hugo himself had here a little secret lair to feel far from the world and get inspired!
The culinary speciality here in Veules les Roses is La Veulaise : it’s the local oyster, fleshy and crunchy that grow at the foots of the cliffs and has a very particular taste due to the mixture of fresh and salte water.
You can enjoy them facing the sea directly at the farmer stall or cooked by Frederic Cauchye, the renowed Chef of the Galets restaurant (with sup.).
This day tour can be done from Paris, Dieppe, Rouen and Fecamp
