Campsites in Upper Normandy

Rouen is home to an imposing Gothic cathedral which alone makes a visit to the town worthwhile. While you're there, stroll through the atmospheric alleys of the city and admire the charming, typically Norman,  half-timbered houses. The city of Le Havre, listed by UNESCO for the modernity of its post-war reconstruction, is worth a visit for those interested in architecture and urban design. It also has plenty of museums and a great waterfront. But if you are into the more traditionally picturesque towns, visit Pont-Audemer instead, full of canals which make it very charming.

If you are interested in art, you might like to visit the Claude Monet Foundation in Giverny, where you'll find the house and gardens of the famous impressionist painter. Or raw, natural, windswept landscapes which will make you feel reinvigorated, take a trip out to the famous limestone cliffs of Etretat.

Of course, Normandy is also famous for its rich gastronomy and its cider. Local restaurants will be happy to introduce you to traditional Norman cuisine, generally heavy on the tasty cream and unpasteurised cheeses of the iconic Normandy cows!
