Nigel & Paula Colman welcome you to Normandy and their delightful rural holiday cottages at Le Haut Fresnay: La Fermette sleeps six, and Le Fournil sleeps four. A cot can be added to either cottage to accommodate a baby.
La Fermette and Le Fournil are converted farm buildings and date from around 1840. They are part of the small hamlet of Le Haut Fresnay, which is situated just over half a mile away from the village of Loré. The market town of Céaucé is about 2 miles away and the mediaeval town of Domfront is 8 miles away.
We hope our cottages offer you just what you’ll need to relax and unwind from the stresses and strains of busy working lives. The peace and tranquillity of the local countryside are what most people notice on arrival and are one of their most enduring memories when they leave.

La Fermette is a comfortable holiday cottage in the grounds of Le Haut Fresnay. Built from local stone with a terracotta tiled roof, the cottage accommodates up to six people plus a baby and is well-furnished and equipped. It also has the added benefit of electric central heating for the cooler months of the year.
La Fermette's ground floor consists of a large living/dining room with a separate, though visible kitchen.
There are comfortable chairs and a sofa, coffee tables, lamps, a dining table and 6 chairs.
Heating is by a large wood burning stove and 2 radiators. The rear window overlooks a patio with a table and armchairs.
The front window overlooks a small front garden.
The kitchen, with fitted units, has an electric oven with ceramic hob, a washing machine, dishwasher, microwave oven, electric kettle and 2 door fridge/freezer.
Off the back hall, which also gives access to the garden and the stairs, is a shower room with hand basin and a separate wc.
Upstairs, off the spacious landing with its stair gate, there are three prettily furnished bedrooms, two double and a twin.
All have wardrobes, mirrors, dressing tables and bedside tables, all with lamps
The bathroom has a shower, hand basin and WC. Cot available.
La Fermette has a fenced courtyard garden at the front of the house. Best of all, you can leave small children to play in this garden safely without constant supervision. There is also enough space for two cars to park by the cottage. La Fermette has a private patio at the back of the cottage which is surrounded by extensive lawns and mature trees and shrubs.
