In reply to Anonymous. Yes, it is. Which is why it's spelt correctly in the title. I must have made an error/auto-correct in the other part. Thanks for spending your Sunday evening highlighting my mistakes :)

Hey, it’s “Notre Dame” (our Lady) and not “Notre Damn”… ;-)
Your photos are incredible! Thank you!

Hi Mary,

It’s a bit of a pain to get to but can be done by bus, Mont St Michel is a must IMO – https://www.danflyingsolo.com/mont-saint-michel-daytrip/

I’d say to stay in Caen simple because you have more options and I liked the evening dining options more in the city :)

Have an amazing time!

Hello, Dan. I’m taking my (slightly surly) 15-year old son to London &a Paris in April. We definitely want to stop in Normandy for a night in between. He is fascinated with WWII so we will see that museum and maybe the beaches. Help, with any suggestions- where to stay (Caen or Bayeux), what else we must include, for a day and a half before darting off to Paris? Thanks so much!!!

In reply to Tess. Hey! Sorry I missed this. I think Caen has more going on so would opt for there personally. Have a great trip!

Will be in France for 6 nights and I was thinking if staying in either Bayeux or Caen for 3 nights. Which would would you recommend Caen or Bayeux? We are planning to go to the Memorials and to Mont St. Michel. Thanks

Both great places, we stayed at Le Chsteau Monfreville, camping or cottages unbelievable place to stay, 20 mins from Bayeux and 50 from Caen, recommended Carentan and the nearby beaches.
