Flow Studios has the advantage of being placed between the historic and tranquil village centre of Chailland and the peaceful manicured gardens that lead to a concealed forested expanse. The history of this village is deeply marked by the forges, which from 1550, and during three centuries, were the heartbeat of the village. Backed by a rock face, the village takes form around the XIth century Romanesque church, with domain, mill and manor. A river that generates energy flows at its feet, feeding the surrounding forests. To make the most of this environment, we recommend venturing into the terraced gardens, discovering the century-old chapel and strolling up to the Rocher de la Vierge, which overlooks the village.
Mont-Saint-Michel, is one of Europe's most unforgettable sights. Dating back to the 8th century, this magical island topped by a gravity-defying medieval monastery, was for centuries one of Europe’s major pilgrimage destinations. Above medieval walls and towers, rise the clustered buildings of the village with the ancient abbey crowning the mount. This holy island is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, alongside its breathtaking bay. Mont-Saint-Michel can be reached by car from Flow Studios in 1hr20. Other beaches can be reached in the same time, including Jullouville and Carolles.
