The property is situated in a peaceful and private location, 3kms from the pretty village of Ceauce.

Both are delightful medieval towns and have a wide range of shops and restaurants (Le Grandgousier restaurant in Domfront is certainly worth a visit). The popular spa town of Bagnoles de L'Orne is also within easy reach.
The ferry port at Caen is about a 90min drive, whilst St Malo is just under 2hrs away.
The surrounding countryside is green, lush and rolling and the picturesque Normandy/Maine National Park is on the doorstep. This is a perfect destination for cycling, hiking and horse-riding.
Normandy is of course one of the gastronomic centres of France and there are some fantastic local restaurants. There are several Michelin-starred restaurants within easy reach as well a good selection of more low-key Auberges.
The Orne region is well known for its cider orchards and cheese farms. The local tipple is AOC cider and perry (poire), made from the abundance of apple and pear orchards that dot the surrounding countryside. Visitors can enjoy cider and cheese tasting at many farms throughout the region. In early spring there are carpets of blossoming trees while in the autumn it's possible to join the apple harvest and cider-pressing, which is celebrated traditionally with local village fairs.

Location : Orne
LOCAL AREA
The Orne is a department of the Normandy region of France. The Orne department is a nature lovers paradise. The area is relatively undiscovered compared to the rest of Normandy which gives visitors the opportunity to explore the beautiful scenery, rivers and forests in peace. The Orne has lots to offer those who love the outdoors such as hiking, cycling, canoeing, and fishing. And if you need to relax after an active day in the outdoors, Orne is also home to the historic spa resort of Bagnoles de l'Orne, a famous spa resort which now offers for all the latest health and beauty treatments. And for a taste of the true France, Camembert is located in the Orne region, the home of possibly that most famous of French cheeses.
