There is so much to see and do in Calvados its hard to know where to start.
We are only a short drive from the D Day beaches, and all its historic sites and museums.
Inland there are plenty of family days out, from visits to the local cider makers, to canoeing on the River Vire, a great family day out, or horse riding golf, or for the braver, the activity centre at the viaduct only 5 miles from us where you can bungee jump, or try other extreme sports. This is worth a visit if only to watch the brave leaping from the old viaduct in to the river below!
The gite is not far from the major town of St Lo, and local shops are a mile away where you can buy bread and general provisions, or visit a bar. it’s a short down hill walk, but a longer one up hill on the return home!!
In the gite we have lots of information on places to visit and where to eat, and as we live close by you are welcome to ask for help and advice
