Étretat is small but special: characterful sea-view and clifftop hotels, including a romantic clifftop manor, set beside the cliffs that inspired Monet and Maupassant.
Where to stay in style
Stay near the seafront and the cliffs for the views and the cliff walks, or just back in the village centre.
When to book
Summer weekends are busy and rooms are few — book early. Spring and autumn give moody skies and calmer trails.
