Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
Beautiful beaches can be enjoyed less than an hour away from the house. Carolles beach being a favourite.
Golf can be enjoyed a short distance away at the beautiful Lake Dathee (10 minute drive). Lake Dathee also offers a small 'beach', pedalos and kayaking (if you head to the sailing club).
Mont St Michel, Bayeux, Caen, Vire, Villedieu les Poeles, Domfront and the sandy beaches of the D-Day landings are not far.
On receipt of a booking balance, we will send you a full visitor's pack which includes lots of information about what to do in and around the area, along with the access information.
Local market days
There is a market to go to every day! Monday: Tinchebray. Tuesday: Sourdeval. Wednesday: St Hilaire du Harcouet. Thursday: Ger. Friday: Mortain and Vire.
The town of Vire, 10 minutes away, is almost entirely dedicated to food. Friday is market day & love it or hate it, there's no escaping Vire's speciality, blood sausage! There is also a fantastic Aquapark.
