Le Grand Hotel, Cabourg, Normandy, France: A Timeless Seaside Retreat (First published in The Sunday Times, 1988) This evocative photograph captures the essence of a quiet, out-of-season day at the famed Le Grand Hotel in Cabourg, France. The image, taken in the 1980s, shows families and strangers alike gathered on the expansive, sandy beach in front of the grand hotel. The hotel, with its iconic red-tiled roof and white facade, stands proudly in the background, a testament to the elegance and sophistication of a bygone era. The scene is one of tranquility and relaxation. The families, dressed in warm coats and scarves, have set up camp on the beach, their children building sandcastles and playing in the shallows. A few solitary figures can be seen strolling along the shoreline, their thoughts lost in the rhythmic crashing of the waves. The setting sun casts a golden glow over the scene, bathing the beach in a warm, inviting light. Despite the passage of time and the changing seasons, Le Grand Hotel remains a beloved destination for those seeking a peaceful retreat by the sea. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the simple pleasures of a weekend getaway, where the hustle and bustle of daily life fades away, and the beauty of the natural world takes center stage.
