Enjoy the pleasures of nature and beaches on vacation at BiâO Cotentin
On the West coast of Cotentin, between Mont Saint Michel and Cap de la Hague-Cherbourg, BiâO Cotentin is an old farmhouse from the XVIth century with an enclosed wall that we have been renovating since 2006.
The BiâO * Cotentin is certified ECOGÎTE by Gîtes de France. It constitutes a whole of life, a school, where the reception of vacationers is in interaction with all our other activities. (* BiâO means 'beautiful' in Norman dialect)
We have set up "Le BiâO gîte" and 4 guest rooms, using old-fashioned local materials: stone, clay, wood, linen, lime, etc. in order to maintain the authenticity of the place and bring you incomparable comfort.
The optimum layout of our eco-lodging allows for several reception configurations:
