The area surrounding the village of Embry is a delight all year round. Ramble through shady forests, picnic amidst wild flowers and admire the rolling countryside from verdant hilltops - or stroll along the magnificent sandy beaches of the Côte d’Opale. 
Embry is situated in the Embrienne valley in the Seven Valleys - an area of Pas-de-Calais steeped in history and folklore. The Canche, Course and Authie rivers flow through the valleys, bordered by the lush Crécy and Hesdin forests. If you fancy a day by the seaside, the chic coastal resort of Le Touquet is just over half an hour away. The town has many superb restaurants. There are many other enchanting seaside towns to visit, such as Hardelot-Plage, Le Crotoy and St-Valery-sur-Somme. Further afield, visit Monet’s beautiful house, gardens and lily pond at Giverny, the medieval town of Bruges and the cities of Lille and Brussels.  
Closer to home are the market towns of Hesdin and Montreuil-sur-Mer (both 15 minutes away). Famous as the setting for the Maigret television series, Hesdin’s town square becomes a bustling marketplace every Thursday morning, where you can sample and buy local delicacies and other fresh produce. There are also many interesting shops and boutiques to explore, as well as numerous cafés for a mid-morning coffee and croissant!  
Montreuil-sur-Mer has an excellent market every Saturday morning. It is famous as the town where Victor Hugo wrote his book about Mayor Jean Valjean, which was later adapted to create the musical """"Les Miserables"""". Every year at the end of July, Montreuil-sur-Mer stages outdoor performances of the musical with a cast of hundreds.  
Both Hesdin and Montreuil-sur-Mer have a huge choice of restaurants and brasseries, with set menus for as little as 10€. If you prefer to cook at home, both towns have poissonneries and boucheries, where you can buy an assortment of fresh fish or meat for a delicious barbecue!
