La chaumière aux hortensias

An adorable thatched cottage set in landscaped grounds just above the Marais Vernier, an exceptional natural site.

Treat yourself to a truly Norman stay at La Chaumière aux hortensias! You'll fall under the spell of this adorable traditional timber-framed house topped with thatch and iris, nestled in the heart of a hectare of manicured parkland, planted with trees and flowers including magnificent hydrangeas: plenty of space to relax, play with the family, have a drink or dine al fresco! Inside, Michèle has created a warm, elegant cocoon with your comfort in mind: meticulously decorated, with pretty antique furniture in a contemporary setting, in light, soothing tones; the house opens out onto the garden through its bay windows.
The region is superb: in the heart of the Parc naturel des boucles de la Seine normande, the Marais Vernier is just 3 km away: a vast nature reserve, one of the largest peat bogs in Europe. Perhaps you'll come across a stork, a Camargue horse or a Scottish Highland cow?

SINGLE-STOREY HOLIDAY COTTAGE. The entrance leads into a warm living room with comfortable leather furniture and a spacious dining area overlooking the garden. Well-equipped separate kitchen with small dining area. Two pretty, bright bedrooms: the first overlooks the garden and can be set up as a double bed (160x200) or 2 twins; the second offers a double bed (160). Separate shower room and toilet. There's also a practical covered shed. The Holiday cottage is surrounded by a 3,000 m² garden, with its own parking area, on the spacious, enclosed one-hectare property shared with Michèle and Guy; garden furniture in front of the Holiday cottage and under the trees, lounge area and deckchairs. Badminton available. You're 1.6km from the GR23.
