Beautiful cottage to rent, sleeps 8-10, near Caen, Normandy

Converted from an old Calvados Still building where the Farmer used a large copper still over an open fire to distil his home made cider to make calvados (apple brandy), and set to one side of the property, this is a secluded, spacious and detached cottage on two floors.

It has its own garden with barbecue, garden furniture and children’s swings. Detached and separate enough to be private if you want to be, the Calvados Still, is nevertheless close enough to the Farmhouse and the Barn Cottage to enable you to arrange weddings, intimate family reunions, conferences or teaching groups.
