Couple's stay
Coming to Tatihou for two
As a couple, you want to take time for your couple, to find each other. An island cut off from the world represents exactly the image you have of a stay just for lovers. Tatihou brings you the change of scenery and the necessary quietness to think only of each other. The charm and comfort of the room, the hotel restaurant, all the services of the Maisons de Tatihou offer you a setting worthy of the end of the world to live in Normandy.
DISCOVER OUR HOUSES AND THEIR HISTORY
The history of the island has been rich in twists and turns. A military fort from the beginning of the 18th century, then a lazaretto from 1721, the island was a great laboratory of marine biology between the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. During the First World War, a civilian prison camp was set up in the premises on Tatihou. They were then used to receive women and children refugees from the Spanish war in 1939. During the Second World War, the Germans occupied the island and built blockhouses. After the war, the island became a re-education centre for young people, allowing them to learn a job with an elaborate educational project. The historical buildings of Tatihou open a new page of history.
The Conservatoire du littoral entrusted the département of La Manche with the rehabilitation of Tatihou in the early 1990s. The symbol of the project was the opening of the maritime museum in 1992 to celebrate the tercentenary of the Battle of La Hougue. Today, it is an ambitious project that is coming to life on Tatihou to accommodate a 26-room hotel-restaurant and 18 rooms that constitute the island's youth hostel.
