Logis de l'Hôtel de Tersant

A town gîte in the heart of the medieval city of Bayeux.

You'll have the chance to stay in a former 16th-18th century mansion, with a 15th century tower, 300 meters from the cathedral, in a quiet neighborhood. The bright living room opens onto the terrace, and is decorated with great care. The Bergamo painting in the 2nd bedroom is reminiscent of 15th-century Norman tapestry. François, the owner, is an enthusiastic history buff, and will be happy to recommend a tour of the town's mansions and the paths along the banks of the River Aure, from which you can discover the medieval town. This was the first town to be liberated in 1944, without fighting or bombing. A 15-minute drive will take you to the coastline: Port-en-Bessin, the D-Day landing beaches.
