A lovely site set around an old Château in the woods located in the green Calvados countryside. If you are looking for well marked pitches, manicured hedges and neatly mown grass then this site is not for you. We loved it’s unkempt appearance and would describe it as traditionally French rustic style. We loved it. The pitches are set randomly (but marked out individually) in the grounds of the Château including the orchard as well as around a small lake. There is a lovely open air swimming pool which we didn’t use but it seemed popular with adults and children alike. The outbuildings have been put to good use with reception and a well stocked small shop in one, cafe and one of three toilet blocks in another with a lovely restaurant occupying the third. The Château itself houses a cosy bar on the ground floor. There is plenty to do locally with the old city of Pont Eveque close by as is the cathedral city of Lisieux. Further afield the lovely coastal towns of Honfleur and Deauville are little over 30 minutes drive away with lovely sea fronts and beaches. Further afield the D Day landing beaches can be reached in no more than an hours drive. WiFi is only available on the green in front of the cafe so everyone tends to congregate in that area whether the cafe, bar or shop is open. This is a family run site, now into the 5th generation and they are deeply passionate about the environment and do everything within the site to minimise waste and promote recycling and reuse as well as energy and water reduction. They should be applauded for their commitment to this cause. We shall be back.
