where to go - what to see - what to doBasse-Normandie is often compared to the English countryside with hedgerows separating acres of apple orchards and pastureland.
Discover some of France's best pungent cheeses and cider here.
The modern city of Caen is worth a visit not least for its abbey built by William the Conqueror.
The port of Cherbourg, further west, still operates as a important naval base.
