La Petite Folie (bed and breakfast)

Home description

After travelling for work for most our our lives, my husband (French)and I (American) fell in love with Honfleur and particularly this house! It is large, centrally located but is very private and warm. Little to no noise although we are located just steps from the best restaurants and shopping. We especially cater to couples or those who wish a holiday break in Normandy and appreciate a good restaurant/glass of wine and of course not to forget the Calvados!

My personal theme is to leave your car parked, walk about the beautiful town, its museums its beautiful architecture and hidden treasures found along the paved windy roads. Take an energetic walk up to the beautiful Cote de Grace to see another wonderful treasure of this special town.

Note that the house is NON SMOKING and our friends the animals are not permitted (we have two well behaved cats that spend most of their time in the garden)!

The house is also NOT RECOMMENDED FOR CHILDREN due to the ambiance (and seating) of our guests at breakfast.

Calvados the land of excellent cheeses, butter, cream and of course 'Calvados' a liqueur based of apples taken as a digestive. A wonderful part of France with lots of character, beautiful architecture, museums, access to beaches and of course to the landing beaches. 45 minutes to Rouen and approx 1.5 hours to D Day beaches, Honfleur serves as a great starting point to explore the Pays d'Auge or to just relax and explore the beauty that Honfleur iteself has to offer by foot!
