An attractive 19th Century three storey stone town house. Built into the side of the medieval towns’ old perimeter wall, it combines modern comforts whilst retaining many of its original features such as oak flooring in all the rooms, wattle and daub plaster and a three storey spiral staircase. A continental breakfast is offered in our comfortable breakfast room on the ground floor which also doubles as a sitting room with a wood burning stove for the colder months and a bookshelf stocked with local information, fiction books or card and board games.

Attractions Domfront. Is a town steeped in history dating back to the 11th Century. Domfront has several close connections with England going back centuries. There have been many military campaigns conducted from this once fortified stronghold from as far back as 1010 with many illustrious names who have lived or fought here.
The medieval town itself retains its cobbled streets, secret courtyards and half timbered houses with worn steps which sit well alongside the grandeur of the Mairies and other manor houses. If relaxing is your thing, there are many cafes and restaurants where you can try the local poiré (a cider made from fermented pear juice and traditionally drunk from a deep cup and saucer) or a galette (buckwheat pancake served with a sweet or savoury filling).
Normandy. Only 1 hour from the famous D Day landing beaches and the world heritage site of Mont st Michel. Or simply explore on horse-back, on foot or on bikes, the countryside and forests for which Normandy is renowned. We have a bookshelf stocked with local information in our breakfast room. So you can plan your day over your leisurely continental breakfast.
The Normandy beaches. Follow the history of the D-Day landings and the ‘battle of Normandy’. At Arromanches you will find the 360° cinema and war museum.
Visit the English, American and German cemeteries. Norman soil is the final resting place for almost 20,000 young soldiers who never returned.
