Home description
This delightful chaumiere was originally where the apples were squashed in an enormous circular horse drawn press to produce the precious juices for the fabrication of cider and Calvados. Today it has been transformed into a comfortable cottage. There is a main dining and kitchen area through which at one end is a twin bedded room and bathroom with loo ,basin and bath. The other side leads to a relaxing salon with a door opening out onto the enclosed garden with one single bed. Another bathroom with shower, basin and loo and a bedroom with a large double bed lead off the salon. The enclosed garden itself looks out onto a magnificent display of many rare species of plants and flowers through which a stream runs down to the sea.

Just a short note to say thankyou very much for your hospitality and for the use of your beautiful cottage! Everything was great and we really appreciated your little touches, flowers, dressing gowns etc. We have had a wonderful break and have enjoyed living in La Forge! Thanks again! August 2007
We absolutely adored the cottage,and had a really wonderful week. Everything was perfect! The bed was extremely comfortable and the kitchen was a lovely room, the whole atmosphere of the place was very calm and homely. The cottage was wonderfully comfortable and it was lovely to be able to come back to it and relax in the evenings. September 2007
We had a lovely time at La Forge, its a lovely place, so peaceful and our parents absolutely loved their first visit to France. We will definitely be back! October 2007
Merci for such a wonderful holiday! Such a warm and cosy place to come back to after exploring the surrounding sights. Pennedepie is so quiet and relaxing. New Years Eve under the Eiffel Tower was fantastic. Everything was as promised and more. Our dog really enjoyed the surf beach too! We would love to come again sometime in 2008. C'est magnifique! Love the renovations- we all had a great New Year week. JANUARY 2008
