Vacation Rental Description
La Befferie is the farmhouse of an old cider farm at La Befferie, a tiny hamlet in the rural Southern Manche Departement of Normandy, close to the Brittany border. 
 
Dating back probably to the early 1700's, La Befferie is a traditional colombage or timber framed farmhouse which would originally have had a thatched roof. It is situated in 5.5 acres of gently rolling farmland, surrounded by apple trees and pasture, with a beautiful view down the valley. 
- Suitable and safe for small children 
- Rural, quiet, peaceful 
- Nearest shop 2-3km (opens late and on Sundays) 
- supermarkets 15 mins drive 
 
We bought the house primarily for ourselves, so it has being lovingly restored, with all the home comforts you could wish for. We also try to provide everything you need to get you started, with a welcome pack of the essentials waiting for you on arrival. 
 
We love it, we hope you will too..........

    • The cottage was restored ready for the Summer of 2007, and the inside is modern, light and comfortably furnished. There are exposed beams in all rooms, particularly the kitchen/dining room, and the cottage is well equipped. There is a basic kitchen store supply which we ask you to replace if you use anything. The 3 bedrooms are all en-suite with modern fittings. The main bedroom has a bathroom with bath and shower over, and the other two bedrooms have shower rooms. (The French water pressure is strong, so if you are used to low pressure water as we are in the UK, the showers are gorgeously drenching!) The garden is enclosed and safe for children, and is surrounded by an orchard where our neighbour often grazes his animals, and you can sit out and enjoy the view across the orchard and down the valley to the trout stream. Jays are regular visitors and the buzzards and sparrowhawks are often seen overhead.
