An idyllic site in a forest clearing, away from all roads and all other dwellings. This historical Manor with its dove cot, stables and outhouses dates back to 1406 and was in the same family for 400 years. It is a charming place, little known except to sportsmen, nature lovers and historians, a real haven of peace.The house has been carefully restored by its present owners who have lived there for the last 30 years making it a perfect stop over on the way further into France. Access is difficult for ultra low slung vehicles.

Among the things which count for me are : cheerfulness, friendship, music, animals, beauty, nature and, of course, good cooking !

There are a lot of interesting places to visit in our area, like the fascinating little towns of Lyons la Forêt ( a unique 16th century time warp) or Gerberoy, an amazingly pretty place, or the impressive fortifications of Château Gaillard (built in only one year by Richard the Lion Heart) or Gisors( the frontier of English Normandy, and the France of the french Kings). There are the abbey ruins of Mortemer, the much visited gardens created by the impressionist artist Monet, and within striking distance the towns of Rouen and Beauvais where there is a great deal to see, not forgetting all the festivals and the open air markets.
