About this property

Escape to a Timeless Norman Retreat

Nestled in the heart of the lush Manche countryside, our charming two-bedroom cottage offers the perfect blend of traditional Normande architecture with modern comfort. Imagine waking up to the sound of birdsong right outside the kitchen window with views of a pond in the distance, enjoying a croissant from our local boulangerie with a warm cup of coffee from the French press on the terrace overlooking the hillside views, and spending evenings curled up by the fireplace, reading a book, playing a board game or binging your favorite Netflix series with a bottle of local cider. Whether you are here to explore the cider trails or simply unplug, our cottage is your peaceful home away from home.

Guests will find two cozy bedrooms, including one full bed and a fun bunk bed, ideal for families or friends. The bathroom features a refreshing rain shower, towel warmer and a handy hair dryer for convenience. We have a full kitchen & an outdoor grill with everything you need in case you wish to stay in. A wood burning fireplace & electric heating keeps the space comfortable during cooler days. Our newly installed washing machine is an added convenience as well.

Our cottage is centrally located to so many wonderful places to visit here: Mont Saint Michel, Saint Malo, Cancale, Bayeux, Fougeres, Domfront, Caen and many more. For those who like to go to vintage shops, flea markets & brocantes, we can provide you with some of our favorite spots to explore. Need a restaurant recommendation? We've got you covered with a list of local favorites.

As we a based locally, we'll be available to answer any questions while you stay at our place. We look forward to having you as our guests and share this beautiful area of Normandie we call home.
