The layout is spacious and semi open-plan with lots of room to spread out among the antiques and family heirlooms: on the walls hang paintings by Marie-Christine's talented mother. On cooler days you can light the fire: find plenty of books to read, games to play and films to watch. Three generous bedrooms are on the first floor - all with good views over the garden.
A country house style kitchen is stocked with basics but your first breakfast will also be waiting along with a bottle of wine or cider. A private chef can be rustled up or cookery courses arranged. Wander out into two hectares of gardens with mature trees, tumbling roses and lush lawns. Two terraces are ideal, one for shade and another for a sunny evening drink.
A trampoline, swing and sandpit will keep little ones happy and you can play tennis or table tennis. Drive five minutes into Bayeux to buy amazing local produce at the famous Saturday morning market.

Puntos de interés sobre la región de
Christian & Marie-Christine Delecourt:
- Delight your taste buds with fresh seafood and fish from the fisherman at Port-en-Bessin. Don’t miss the Sunday morning market too – or on Saturday mornings in Bayeux, where wandering from stall to stall is just lovely (plus restaurants on the sea front).
- Le Bessin, the region around Bayeux is full of manoirs and châteaux from the 14th – 18th centuries, much like Le Chateau de Barbeville itself.
- Don’t miss the bunkers at Longues-sur-Mer, La Pointe du Hoc, its steep cliffs and the very impressive American cemetery. Arromanches is where the largest artificial port ever was constructed - discover its history in the 360 Circular Cinema.
- Further afield is the famous Mont Saint-Michel and the charming port of Honfleur, home to famous Norman painters. Why not try visit the Chausey Islands with their exceptional tidal range during high tides?
- Our terraces and flowery gardens will entice you to rest and relax, or try your hand at tennis, trampolining, ping-pong. You’ll be surrounded by walking or cycling paths – whilst being in deep countryside and yet close to the sandy beaches.
- We’re 2.5km from Bayeux, with fascinating curiosities from the Middle Ages all the way to modern day – the cathedral, the renowned tapestry, you’ll be transported back to the age of William the Conqueror.
