Set midway between Bayeux & St Lo in Lower-Normandy, France, this 17c Manoir & Pigeonnier sleeps 10 in 5 Bedrooms with 4 bathrooms
Prestigious Bed&Breakfast; accommodation in an historic Manoir, an idyllic setting in extensive gardens and grounds. Ideally located for D-Day Beaches and Norman history, battlefield tours, award winning golf courses and restaurants within easy reach.
Le Manoir de Hérouville is located mid-way between Bayeux and St Lo, easily accessible from the Channel ports of Caen/Ouistreham and Cherbourg and Caen Carpiquet airport.
Built during the reign of Louis XV, the main house and Pigeonnier have been extensively refurbished and modernised to a high standard, whilst retaining the original features and character of a pre-revolution Manoir.
The house is in open farmland in the lee of the Cérisy National Forest, which offers possibilities for walking, riding and cycling. The grounds and gardens extend to seventeen acres and include a stocked lake for fishing.
Accommodation:
There are four bedrooms available for letting in the main house. All are spacious, well decorated and traditionally furnished with canopied king or double bed. Each has en-suite facilities and extensive views over the surrounding countryside. The ground floor includes an elegantly appointed guest drawing room and a dining room.
The Pigeonnier, which denotes the importance of the Manoir, is both unusual and charming. It is arranged on three floors - the mezannine top floor as a twin bedroom, the middle floor as a galleried double bedroom with antique bed and en-suite shower room, and the ground floor has a kitchen, a seating and a dining area. Each floor is linked by a steep staircase and thus the Pigeonnier is only suitable for the able-bodied and independent.
Battlefield Tours:
Positioned astride the June 1944 boundary between 1st US Army and 2nd British Army, close to the airborne landings, invasion beaches, and major sites of the Battle of Normandy, Le Manoir de Hérouville is ideally located for tours of the Normandy battles.
We would be delighted to arrange bespoke battlefield tours from the Manoir on your behalf.
Places of interest within easy reach include, D Day landing beaches & museums, Mont St Michel, the Bayeux Tapestry & Cathedral
