A long season from 1st April-7th November makes this an attractive option for your holiday home purchase. Port’Land is situated just 900 metres from the small resort of Port en Bessin, which is also home to a vibrant fishing port. The Gérardin family will make you most welcome on this medium sized site of 256 pitches. The large and grassy pitches have been divided into distinct areas with a separate zone for residential homes. The excellent range of facilities include a heated swimming pool (covered in low season), bar, restaurant and takeaway and even a couple of small fishing lakes. For golfers the excellent Omaha Beach course is close by (residents enjoy a 20% discount).
