About this property

Beautiful Studio Cottage

This lovely holiday cottage, dating from the beginning of the 18th Century, has been restored to a high standard and will provide a cosy and tranquil base for your holiday. Situated just outside the charming village of Mantilly, about 9 km from Domfront, 'The Studio House' is within easy reach of Cherbourg, the Normandy landing beaches especially Utah and Omaha, and ferries to the Channel Islands. Mont St Michel is a 1 hour drive away, and Bayeux, to the North, is about an hour and a half. It is in an excellent position to serve as a base for trips to Brittany or the Loire Valley.
The studio is in the grounds of a Napoleonic Manor House, previously owned by a famous historian and now owned and lived in by a sculptor.
The port of Caen is only an hour and a half away and Dinard airport, which has daily flights to the UK, is ae similar distance.
The area where the cottage is located is traditional Normandy and extremely rural, quiet and peaceful. It's a safe environment for children, and the lane, which passes the cottage, serves only five other houses. Garden Spa is available June,July & August

Disliked: Listing accuracy
Zeer rustige accomodatie, tuin is laapkamers niet goed
Geen ventilatie in de slaapkamers ( provisorisch twee bedden in een heel klein kamertje gezet) en voldeed niet aan onze verwachtingen. Keuken is okay, sanitair m.n. Toilet boven werkt niet.

Paisible et champêtre
La maison, sur 2 niveaux, est charmante et se trouve au cœur d'un grand domaine arboré. Les propriétaires, qui habitent sur le site, sont fort sympathiques. Idéal pour passer une semaine paisible au vert et profiter des bienfaits de la campagne normande.
