Our Beautiful Old Farmhouse is just 5 minutes away from the friendly town of Brecey. It lies an hour`s car drive from the ferry port of Caen. It is within easy reach of some fine beaches and there are some wonderful walks and cycling routes in the immediate vicinity. The house is set in 1/4 acre of farmland which includes an apple orchard, perfect for sitting under in the summer with a glass of wine listening to the peace and quiet of rural life. The house is set in a very friendly hamlet, our neighbours may well offer you produce such as eggs or fruit from their smallholdings. In the evenings you`re likely to spot an owl or maybe a hare in the neighbouring field. It is being back to basics with all the luxuries of a renovated farmhouse. There will be a supply of beer and wine to which you may help yourself and replace at the end of your stay.
