Holidays in Essay

Can't sleep? Tossing and turning all night? Could be that intrepid spirit of yours! So what's stopping you? Get up, dust off your passport and book a trip to Essay!

It lies 160 kilometres west of Paris, the capital city of France.

Sword Beach and Deauville Beach are perfect to visit if you want to go somewhere to kick back and relax.

You don't have to go too far afield to see some wonderful natural sights. Grab your car keys and follow your GPS to Le Ballastiere Lake, 50 kilometres away from Essay, for a relaxing day. Or perhaps Perche Natural Park is more your style? It's situated just 50 kilometres away.

Seeking even more things to see and do? Head to Semalle, 10 kilometres southwest of Essay, for the Musee des Beaux Arts et de la Dentelle and Chateau des Ducs. Alternatively, Gapree is 10 kilometres to the north, and it's here you'll discover Sees Cathedral and the Haras Golf.

Saint Sauveur Church, Eglise de Saint Martin du Vieux Belleme and Fountain of Belleme are all quite close to Eperrais, 25 kilometres to the southeast. Want a few more reasons to visit? Church of Saint -Barthelemy-Pin La Garenne and the Belleme Golf are not far away either.

Bank cards? Check. Wallet? Check. But have you packed your appetite? With some fantastic food and drink to try across this region, it's the one thing you shouldn't leave home without.

No proud foodie would visit Essay without eating a few of the classic meals, such as matelote (fish stewed in cider) and moules à la crème Normande (mussels in white wine).

You may be eating yourself into elastic-waisted slacks, but teurgoule (baked rice dessert) is worth it. This much-loved dessert will make your taste buds tingle just by looking at it.

Dedicated travellers will often put in some time to learn a few words in the local tongue. They find that being able to exchange some words with the locals isn't just useful, it's great fun too! 'Santé ! À votre santé !' can be translated as 'cheers/good health!'. Another common phrase is 'Ça va? Comment ça va?Comment allez-vous?' ('how are you?').

Delectable food, dancing and music — national celebrations showcase the best of what a country has to offer. Ensure you join in with the locals on Bastille Day on the 14th of July.

Fortunately Essay isn't going anywhere, so this "À plus tard" doesn't need to be your last!

The closest terminal is Orly Airport (ORY). When it's time to pack your bag and fasten your seatbelt, go 160 kilometres to the east.
