Looking for a house in Normandy France?

I am looking to buy a little house in Normandy France. I do not know the area much and I am going to visit there to see around. I am going to be there in mid Sept. I was looking at a lil town by the name of Honfluer – any one can give me a local input about it. Or any other little town that is historic and quite in the area.
