Cahagnes

La Foulerieis

When visiting Normandy, there is no better place to visit, explore and stay at than the town of Cahagnes! You will have a wonderful experience and an enjoyable stay. Best of all, Cahagnes is easy to find by simply using the motorway A 84 (l’Autoroute des Estuaires). La Foulerieis belongs to select group of old farmhouses, typical for the area Pré-Bocage. The farmhouse was restored while preserving and respecting the tradition of the house. The house is full of character, charm and history. The house provides lots of space and the rooms are comfortable. In addition to the three rooms, there is also a library, party games, billard français, home cinema and videotheque, an entertainment room, a recreation and a furnished kitchen which allows you the opportunity cook your own diner and/or lunch. The beauty of this part of France is that you don't necessarily need a car to explore this area. You can discover the neighborhood of la Foulerie and Pré-Bocage by walking or you can rent a mountain bike. Regardless of whether you explore on foot, on bike or by car, you will find many places of interest or sightseeing. In fact, Cahagnes is perfect to discover many places, all of which are less than 1 hour away. For example, the beaches of Normandy where the D-Day landings happened are only 30 minutes away.
