Blackburn, Henry, 1830-1897

"Normandy Picturesque"


Less bracing than Dieppe or Etretat.
HOTELS: _Roches-Noires, Paris, Bras d'Or, &c. Ry. to Paris._
Deauville.--A scattered assemblage of villas and picturesque
houses--very exclusive and select, and dull for a stranger--grand
casino--quite a modern town--separated from Trouville by the river
Touques.
HOTELS: _Grand, du Casino, &c. Ry. to Paris._
Villers-sur-mer.--A pretty village, six miles from Trouville--crowded
during the season--beautiful neighbourhood--good apartments, but
expensive--inns moderate.
HOTELS: _du Bras d'Or, Casino, &c. Ry. to Paris._
Houlgate.--One large hotel surrounded by pretty and well-built chalets
to be let furnished; also many private villas in gardens--beautiful
situation--good sands--small Casino--becoming fashionable and
dear--accommodation limited. _Dil. to Trouville, 11 miles_.
Beuzeval.--A continuation of Houlgate, westward; lower, near the mouth
of the Dives--one second-rate hotel close to the sands--quiet and
reasonable--sea recedes half-a-mile (no boating at Houlgate or
Beuzeval)--beautiful neighbourhood--a few villas and apartments--no
Etablissement. _Dil. to Trouville or Caen_.
Cabourg.--A small, but increasing, town in a fine open situation on
the left bank of the Dives--good accommodation and moderate--not as
well known as it deserves to be.
