Further details
The pretty village of St Sever is only a 5 min drive away from the cottage and on Saturday morning it holds a lovely farmers market where the local farmers come to sell therir delicious normandy produce, the food is very fresh and tasty but also excellent value Tuesday mornings selling lots of delicious Normandy produce. Also visit the huge Depot Vente in Saint Sever which sells 2nd hand furniture, ornaments and other fascinating things. The town of Vire is only 10 mins drive which is a large town boasting many fantastic shops. Why not try a trip in November and December and visit the quaint Christmas Markets. The restaurant is open both for lunch and evening meals.
In the village of St Sever which is 10 minutes from the cottage there is a large open air swimming pool and again many bars. You cannot however, come on holiday to Normandy without visit to Mont St Michel which is approx a 40 min drive away. The Mont has been named by the Guardian Newspaper as one of the top 10 romantic places to visit in the world. I don't think they are wrong. If you have teenagers or a feeling like a daredevil why not visit Hackets Adventure Park. You could try Bungee Jumping from the viaduct that was designed by Gustaff Eifel (guaranteed to blow away your cobwebs).
