Holiday Cottages in Normandy France, Bed & Breakfast

La Mare Chappey: Elegant B&B in a traditional 16th century Norman towered manoir Although a fine example of perfectly proportioned sixteenth century architecture, the Manoir of La Mare Chappey retains an intimate and homely atmosphere. Completed in 1556 by Lucas Chappey, the first Lord of La Mare, the Manoir first opened its doors to guests more than 450 years later, after undergoing an extensive programme of restoration. It now boasts luxurious comfortable guest accommodation located off the mediaeval tower, with each room presented in its own distinct style whilst incorporating Touile de Jouy and traditional French fabrics and wallpapers.

Lucas Chappey: Four poster bed and ensuite hydro power shower

All the comfortably appointed rooms are spacious and with en-suite bathrooms featuring large corner baths or hydropower showers. Bedrooms are furnished with Louis XIV, canopy or four-poster beds and afford magnificent views over the extensive grounds and surrounding countryside.

The drawing room provides a relaxing retreat at any time. Here, guests can enjoy morning coffee, afternoon tea, pre-dinner cocktails or after-dinner drinks, or simply fall asleep in a comfortable armchair after a busy day on the beach! In the evenings, a traditional log fire is set to add to the relaxed atmosphere. In warm weather, the terrace - overlooking gardens and the river - is the perfect spot to unwind. Norman sunsets can be spectacular, and at night an unbelievable number of stars shine down on La Mare Chappey. In fact it was the light quality of the region - both during day and night - which inspired many French impressionists.
