About this property
Charming rural house with garden, near hiking trails and lake in Normandy
Detached house. On the ground floor: living room with lounge (stove), fully equipped kitchen, laundry room with toilet. Upstairs: bedroom (double electric bed 160 x 200 cm), bedroom (double bed 180 x 200 cm separable), shower room, separate toilet. Second floor: landing bedroom (4 single beds 90 x 200 cm) with private shower room and toilet. Electric and wood heating included. 3,000 m² unfenced garden with garden furniture and barbecue. Barn available for bicycles. Le Mêni, which means "rural estate" in Norman dialect, is the name given by Marie-Françoise to this country house built directly on the granite rock surrounded by pastures. Perfectly insulated and welcoming, she has added a personalized decorative touch to the cottage: lampshades made with embroidered family fabrics, a replica of the homemade dragonfly light fixtures, and even a checkerboard painted directly on the games table! Near the family farm with a beef cattle ranch, you'll enjoy an all-inclusive stay in the countryside, surrounded by fruit trees for those with a sweet tooth (plum, mirabelle plum, apricot, cherry, apple, pear, etc.). Don't miss the water sports at Lake Putanges (5 km away), the absolutely exotic hike in Suisse Normande to the Roches d'Oëtre (14 km away), and don't forget the remarkable frescoed church of Ménil Gondouin in the village.
