A romantic 19th-century mansion within a forested pocket of Normandy - includes breakfast, optional dinner, pool and fitness access and activity perks

  • Into the woods: Belle Isle sur Risle sits gracefully in a forested spot on a river islet that's been transformed into a landscaped park blooming with ancient trees and roses and carpeted with expansive lawns. You’ll have lofty Madame Bovary-like aspirations when you step foot inside this charming country pile.

  • Gourmet dining: You can expect haute cuisine in the hotel's restaurant, inspired by various French regions and sometimes further afield. Gourmands can skip the La Carte dishes and jump straight into more foodie-orientated menus, if they fancy. Look forward to refreshing cocktails or a tipple of champagne in the elegant, gilded bar. 

  • Indulgent spa: A rose-pink marble haven of calm, the spa holds both indoor and outdoor pools, two Jacuzzis, a hammam, and a sauna. For the more active types, there's a fitness room, plus kayak hire for exploring the surrounding waterways and bike hire for winding through the woodland. At the end of the day, book in for a soothing massage to ease any tension (fees apply).

How to get there

Your hotel is located just outside the town of Manneville-sur-Risle, in the Normandy region of France. From Paris and its connections to the UK (including Charles de Gaulle Airport, Gare du Nord station and Orly Airport), it's a drive of a little over two hours. Public transport is scarce in this beautiful region, so we highly recommend hiring a car to make the most of the area. Good to know

Please note that access to the spa is €25 per person and reservation is required.

Entry requirements

The passport, visa and health requirements at the time of booking can be viewed on the Foreign and Commonwealth Office website for UK citizens, and on the Department of Foreign Affairs website for IE citizens. It is your responsibility to ensure that you and all members of your party are in possession of all necessary travel and health documents, and in compliance with any other immigration/entry requirements before you travel, including whether your passport must be machine readable or which visas/waivers may be required for entry, such as ESTA for USA travel and/or ETIAS for EU travel. Please also be sure to check the validity of your passport and allow up to 10 weeks for passport renewals.

Pont-Audemer
Not only are you within the vast greenery of Boucles de la Seine Natural Park with all manner of outdoor pursuits at your toes, from fishing, horse riding and kayaking to biking, golf and lengthy park rambles, but you also have chic Deauville and dreamy Honfleur within reach on the nearby coast.

Deauville lures with its upscale harbour, beach, horse races and international screen stars swanning around the famous film festival, while harbourside Honfleur is the Impressionist painter's love affair and a must-see at only half an hour from the hotel.
