Slow Tourism

What is Slow Tourism ?

Slow Tourism is the art of traveling while taking one’s time, of fully immersing oneself in the nature that surrounds us and in the richness of our heritage. It is to privilege encounters, to savor the pleasures of the table, with the concern of the respect of the territory and its inhabitants. 

So, for the addicts of the return to the essential, a stay in our thalassotherapy is ideal for you, in addition to all the activities that our Destination offers you! Discover the Cotentin donkey or go for a tea tasting in the Pink-House tea. 

At the Domaine d'Esthine

During your break in our thalassotherapy, come to the visit of the asinerie of Carolles where you find our friends the donkeys of Cotentin. Take advantage of this visit to visit the store where you will find soaps made from donkey milk, using traditional methods.

Open from the beginning of the April vacations to the All Saints’ Day vacations. From Wednesday to Saturday from 2pm to 6pm. Store open on Saturdays for the rest of the year, except for the Christmas vacations until the beginning of March.
