Ground floor: living room (Wi-Fi internet access included, TNT), kitchen, WC. Upstairs: 1 bedroom (1 double bed 160 x 200 cm), 1 bedroom (2 single beds), shower room/WC. Electric heating. Terrace, open English-style garden with trees. Between Bocage and Suisse Normande, the cottage is part of a complex of buildings formerly dedicated to agriculture, fully restored using traditional techniques and materials: wood, cob, lime, hemp, etc. Originally, the Bergerie site was only a 6,000 m² pastureland with the half-timbered buildings of the old ruined 18th-century farm and only a few fruit trees. It has become the playground of Sylvie, a flower and color enthusiast, and her husband Frédéric, who have completely transformed the space, creating a magnificent, lush and colorful garden where everyone will find privacy, tranquility, and space. Fresh air, walking, and relaxation await you: a true escape from the worries of the modern world! Wi-Fi, Garden furniture, Barbecue, Terrace, Garden, DVD player, Television, Microwave, Freezer, Washing machine, Dishwasher, Detached house, Cleaning included, Heating included, Sheets included, Towels included.

Equipment not mentioned are not considered to be present. Unless there is an electric charging station in the accommodation, charging electric vehicles is prohibited. Your host : This is the passion that drives Frédéric and Sylvie, who have always been immersed in the world of tourism since leaving school. In 2002, they will buy an old farmhouse from the 18th century in ruins and will decide to learn the old techniques of restoration in order to give new life to the 8 buildings of this hamlet of La Bergerie. A challenge for these lovers of old stones who will play the card of ecological restoration for a better quality of life. Previously Sylvie had been a tourist guide for almost 30 years traveling the world and one day she decided to put her suitcases in a little corner of paradise in L'Orne between bocage and Suisse Normande where nature is still preserved, where human values still have a meaning, where we are surrounded by passionate and exciting people, producers who respect the cycles of nature and responsible agriculture whose products it is good to honor. Frédéric, meanwhile, was a Grand Touring driver for more than 10 years and was thus able to share his passion for traveling on European roads. In 2000, he swapped his coach for a more modest vehicle in order to continue transporting his customers, but by... taxi. Is it this new vocation of taxi-driver that gave him his passion for old English taxis!!! Sylvie is no doubt no stranger to the arrival of 3 taxi-cabs at La Bergerie, to the great pleasure of their guests, who they drive along the roads of Suisse Normande (by reservation). It is undoubtedly during a dinner at the table d'hôtes that you will be able to discuss with them the time of an evening on their passions: the garden, nature and heritage for Sylvie, cooking and English taxis for Frederick. Real moments of sharing! ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Kitchen - Dishwasher - Microwave - Refrigerator ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom ### Entertainment - TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,076 square feet ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/115000000/114450000/114448000/114447979/47195ff2.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Charming house in Rabodanges near the lake Rabodanges - Kitchen - Washer - Free WiFi - Outdoor space 10 Exceptional 1 review £265 includes taxes & fees 27 Oct - 28 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-27&endDate=2025-10-28&selected=114447979&PinnedHotelID=114447979&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/116000000/115500000/115499700/115499642/4401b841.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Gîtes des Vergers "Les Pruniers" in Suisse Normande Saint-Pierre-du-Regard - Washer - Pet-friendly [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-18&endDate=2025-10-19&selected=115499642&PinnedHotelID=115499642&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/94000000/93030000/93022100/93022020/a87bc568.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Charming Countryside House: Enclosed Garden, EV Charging, Nearby Nature Trails, Ideal for Families Sainte-Opportune - Kitchen - Washer - Free WiFi - Outdoor space £288 includes taxes & fees 18 Oct - 19 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-18&endDate=2025-10-19&selected=93022020&PinnedHotelID=93022020&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/37000000/36880000/36871700/36871674/cf5d5e16.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Champsecret: Restored Old House with Stove, Enclosed Garden, Pets Allowed Champsecret - Kitchen - Washer - Pet-friendly - Outdoor space 9.0 Wonderful 2 reviews £185 includes taxes & fees 4 Nov - 5 Nov [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-04&endDate=2025-11-05&selected=36871674&PinnedHotelID=36871674&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 4:00 PM Minimum check-in age - 18 ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Pets Pets not allowed ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know This property is managed by a professional host.
