Tucked away in the quiet Normandy countryside on the grounds of an old manor farmhouse, this family-run campsite offers a beautifully maintained retreat. Spacious, level pitches are often separated by hedges, providing excellent privacy and some even come with their own water and electricity. The immaculate, modern toilet and shower blocks feature powerful hot water, thoughtful extras like Dyson hand dryers and a hairdryer, and are consistently praised for their spotless condition. On-site amenities include a bar and restaurant called the Cow Shed, which serves tasty, well-priced food including a popular Friday barbecue from a local butcher, alongside local cider and wine. A games room with a pool table, table tennis, and a selection of books, plus a small playground and a free-use kitchen with a microwave and fridge, provide entertainment and convenience. A laundry room on an honesty system and a TV lounge add to the comforts of the stay. Reliable, free WiFi works even from the pitches, and fresh bread and pastries are available from reception daily for breakfast. The atmosphere is peaceful, surrounded by birdsong and green spaces, with the bar closing at a reasonable hour to ensure tranquility. The friendly, English-speaking owners and staff go out of their way to make every guest feel welcome, often showing remarkable understanding in times of need. The location is ideal for exploring the D-Day beaches, Bayeux, Mont Saint-Michel, and other historic sites, and is easily reachable from the Caen ferry port. Minor drawbacks include limited dinner menu options on some nights, occasional muddy pathways during wet weather, and a wish for better low-level lighting at night. The washing-up area has only two sinks, causing queues at busy times, and the nearby village offers only basic essentials without dining options. Despite these points, the overwhelming sentiment is highly favorable, with many guests planning return visits and recommending the site without hesitation.
