Our history

A 17th century farm

The property is located near the village of Cambremer (4 km), in a Manor House of character, formerly a 17th century farm. The 5 guest rooms and the self-catering cottage « la bergerie » are located in the quiet of a landscaped park, adjacent to a woodland of 60 acres and a vast meadow planted with fruit trees, especially old apple and pear trees, and hedged with remarkable old trees. &

You have access to the garden but also to the woodland and meadow, as well as the various playgrounds. Of course we advise you to be careful and watch your children closely.  There are three springs and small expanses of water in the woodland and some hives in the meadow. If you wish to have a walk in the forest, please wear suitable shoes (mud-proof) and we have a map of the paths at your disposal.

Few words about us

We are from the north of France, from Roubaix. We enjoyed living in Amiens for more than 15 years.

We have 3 children, one girl and two boys, adopted in Mexico; thus every year they win the suntan contest, even in Normandy sunshine…

During all these years we have come many times to rejuvenate ourselves in the quiet of the domaine des Marronniers and to visit this superb area (since 1994!). In April 2008, during a chance discussion at breakfast, the former owners told us about their plan to sell the estate.

Being used to a house wide open to guests, we had had the idea of opening a guest house for a long time.  After a short time for reflection, we decided to embark on this lovely adventure…
