This and Cave de Mirande are two world class farmhouse cider producers, 4.3 level and up with ciders that rival the best wines, Belgian geuze, and American sour ales. Incredible. Pro Tip: you can STAY HERE! It is a bed and breakfast or you can park your camper or just camp in a tent here. House and cider cellar room is beautiful, family run. Staff was hospitable but exceptionally friendly and made exceptions for us to come in after hours. We rang the doorbell and got the royal treatment even though they had been closed for half and hour. They also sell, per usual, Calvados, Pommeau, and other artisanal goodies. Their Pommeau was absolutely incredible. Overall an amazing experience. A MUST on your cider trip through Brittany and Normandy.

This was our 3rd stay at the Manoir du Quesnay (twice as a couple and once with our two girls)…read more Jacques and Alix run a world-class B&B. The Manoir has several rooms in the main house as well as several more in the "boat house". Its location is perfect to visit all of the northern coast sites and is easy to find. The staff is very efficient and quality oriented. Everything in and around the Manoir is clean and well kept. On several occasions I have asked for restaurant recommendations and every time we have been very impressed with the food. I can say that Jacques and Alix are always prepared to provide recommendations for a day trip, all of the details and even make reservations for you if recquired. Just minutes to the town of Bayeux (and the famous Tapestry) or all of the Normandy WW2 sites/Museums/Cemeteries. Easy Drive to Mont St. Michael and the beautiful coast of norther France. Just ask Jacques and he will gladly be your tour designer, answering questions, providing historical context, providing maps, making great suggestions, etc. If you are a Band of Brothers fan, you are very close to all the key areas of the 101st airborne activities from D-Day (episodes 2 and 3). Carentan and Brecourt Manor are just a short drive away. There is also a number of monuments and museums that honor those great men. If you are a fan of Saving Private Ryan then you have all of the cities and sights all within easy reach. The opening and closing scene were shot in the American cemetery in Coleville. An absolute must see. I cannot say enough about how much we love staying at this B&B. I do not think you can find a better combination of location, quality and people anywhere in France. This is a must stay if you are headed north of Paris.

Each morning, along with the arrays of breads and jams and meats, fruits and cheeses, there was always a special treat; Crepes, pot de creme, etc. Our room was huge, comfortable and beautifully appointed. The garden in the courtyard was a gem. We stayed 3 nights but I can't wait to go and linger longer. Wonderful place to base for D-day touring.

They made some great restaurant recommendations too. The room was spotlessly clean and the bed and linens were top notch. The decor of the room was also very tasteful.

What a great excuse for skipping town and heading to the countryside, we thought! And thus ensued a furious bought of B&B research to find the perfect home away from home. I searched and searched and was coming up empty, and then bam, this place with is minimal design, gorgeous location and right price, caught my attention. I called and a very kind man said there was only one room left, and that we could have it, and no we wouldn't have to leave a cc, there was no cancellation fee, and yes, we could have an extra kids bed installed in the room for no extra cost. Perfection! This private manor is is perched on a hill behind Trouville with a sweeping view of the ocean. It's owned by a very sweet guy who has renovated it in super tasteful tones and minimal furniture so that you can appreciate the volumes without any clutter. We had a fantastic time here, even when a hurricane stormed through! Actually it was one of the most dramatic storms I've lived through. You could see the clouds coming in from the ocean and the winds traveling up the hill, creating turmoil in the trees as the storm rushed passed us. It was pretty remarkable. The weather changed the next day and we enjoyed a glorious blue-sky with clear views of the ocean while having our delicious breakfast in the main dining room before heading to the beach. Can't wait for the next excuse to make this our home away from home again. NB: They only take cash and you'll need a car to get up the hill as the road is a bit steep and dangerous to walk up.
