Our centuries-old Normandy holiday house overlooks the market square of the picturesque village of Cambremer in the heart of the Pays d'Auge.

The house offers quality accommodation for 2 – 5 people, with oak-beamed lounge, fully-fitted kitchen, modern bathroom and two bedrooms. The private west-facing front terrace is the ideal place for your early evening drinks. Satellite TV and DVD/video players complete the picture.

CAMBREMER is 40 minutes' drive from the ferry ports of Caen or Le Havre. It is a convenient base for exploring the D-day sites, 'William the Conqueror' country, or for lazing on sandy beaches. It is at the heart of the Cider Route - visit the local farms and sample the Calvados!

With the Sunday market, boulangerie, two good restaurants, bar and church all within 150 yards/metres of the house, a stay at L'Ancienne Perception will give you a unique experience of French village life.

Accommodation:
The house has 1 double and 1 triple bedroom. Fully-fitted kitchen with ceramic electric hob, oven, microwave, espresso coffee maker, fridge and washing machine. Modern bathroom with bath and shower cubicle. The comfortable lounge has a woodburning stove and is equipped with (English) satellite TV, DVD and CD player.

Free wifi.

The west-facing secluded front terrace has a patio table and chairs for your evening drinks or dinner.

The Area:
Plenty to do locally, including visits to cider farms, gardens and calvados distillery.

An ideal touring centre, within 30 mins' drive you will find sandy beaches at Cabourg and Deauville, picturesque Honfleur, several chateaux, Falaise castle, D-day sites and more.

There is free, unrestricted parking on the market square and we are just 45 mins from the ferries at Caen or Le Havre. There is no through traffic through the village.

This is the real France!

Local Attractions

Normandy is the large region of Northern France stretching from Mont St Michel in the west to Dieppe in the east and almost reaching Paris to the south-east. It boasts over 400 miles of coastline and is the perfect combination of wide sandy beaches, bustling towns and peaceful country villages.

It is rich in history - in 1066 William, Duke of Normandy, set sail to conquer England. In the 15th century Normandy fell under British rule, leading to the uprising led by Joan of Arc who was executed in Rouen. In 1944 the D-DAY landings by allied forces liberated Normandy by expelling the occupying troops from France.

Normandy comprises 5 counties (or Departements): Calvados (County town Caen), Eure (Evreux), Manche (St Lo), Orne (Alencon), and Seine-Maritime (city - Rouen), each with their own different character.

Agriculture (dairy/butter/cheeses/apples..and of course cider) and fishing/seafood dominate the economy today. Eating well is a favourite past-time!
