Property description

PROPERTY MR209
This is an exceptional property and must be viewed to appreciate the high quality renovation work it has undergone over the past three years and its location. Surrounded by pasture land and situated in a quiet rural village this ‘corps de ferme’ dates back to the end of the nineteenth century and is built in the style typical of the ‘Bessin’ region consisting of the main farmhouse and several outbuildings including a large grange, écurie and bakehouse.

The beach is only 4.5kms from the house and Bayeux is ten minutes by car. The ferry ports of Cherbourg and Ouistreham are easily accessible and are within 1 hour’s drive of the property.

The configuration of the property lends itself to Chambre d’Hôte facilities as there is an independent entrance at one end of the house, allowing guests to come and go without interfering with the owner’s privacy. The outbuildings could be converted to further accommodation if required.
