The Normandy / Calvados region
The Pays-d'Auge is renowned for its production of cider and calvados. There are large distilleries but still plenty of small producers. Its climate is favourable to breeding of dairy-cattle and production of excellent cheeses like the camembert, Pont-l'Evèque and Livarot. You will discover all this products on numerous farmers markets as you drive around the region.

Museums and historical sites : D-Day Landing beaches (from 50 to 100 km), Bayeux' famous tapestry (80 km) and William the Conqueror's (also called the "Bastard" !) history.
Beautiful castles and manors all over the Pays-d'Auge. Château de Combray
Painting museums : Honfleur, Caen....
The Pont l'Eveque / St-Philbert-des-Champs area
Many towns and villages with typical timber-framed houses as Honfleur, Beaumont-en-Auge, Beuvron....

Reviews
 04 Sep 2011 |
After getting lost due to the road system being changed since the TomTom map update(!!!) I called Isabelle who was so helpful, giving us directions, and met us halfway. When we drove up the drive, both kids (4 and 13) were amazed – they thought we were staying on a farm – as it was so spacious with huge gardens surrounded by fields with horses… I was worried that the evenings would be difficult with 2 kids and no English tv, but we ended up playing cricket and football in the massive garden. We didn't use the huge fire or dining table, but we ate outside for breakfast and evening meals. She showed us round the very well fitted out cottage. Although a cottage, and we are a family of 4, it would easily sleep 6. It had a shower room, a bathroom with 2 sinks, two toilets, a will fitted kitchen and a laundry room. Half an hour drive from a great coastline, an hour away from Normandy beaches, William the Conqueror's castle, Bayeaux tapestry, etc… It is a great location, in a beautiful village, of half timbered cottages |
