La Vieille Abbaye

Stylish Farmhouse B&B, Suite and Gite

Having undergone extensive restoration in 2007 and early 2008, our beautiful 16th century stone farmhouse is now open to visitors seeking stylish B&B or self-catering accommodation on working dairy farm.

In school holiday periods, the property is available as a spacious, fully equipped self-catering Gite for up to 15 guests. Outside these periods, we also offer B&B with optional evening meals.

Perfect for large groups or several families sharing a holiday, the property offers 5 large bedrooms, each with a private bathroom, a spacious living area and a separate dining room. The first floor mezzanine area offers a selection of games for children and outside, we offer a large sand surface play area with a trampoline, swings, slide and climbing equipment.

We are a French/English couple with three small children, located in the rural village of Barbery, about 30 minutes drive from the ferry port at Ouistreham - the ideal stop-off point before venturing further on in to France or back to England!

We are within easy reach of the Normandy landing beaches, the city of Caen, Swiss Normande and the towns of Deauville and Bayeux, in addition to all the wonderful places and attractions that this part of Normandy has to offer! Paris is about 2.5 hours by car or slightly less by train. There are airports in Caen (20 minutes) and Deauville (45 minutes).

We are a working farm of 350 acres, with 120 dairy cows, an ever-changing number of calves, 200 beef cattle, several horses, a Shetland pony, a handful of sheep, hens and two cats.

Bed and breakfast guests will be served milk from our herd, along with delicious home-made yoghurts, free-range eggs from our hens and preserves made with seasonal fruits.

We will be happy to provide an evening meal at our Family Table by prior arrangement.

We are open all year to welcome bookings from singles, couples, groups and families with children and we hope our hearty breakfasts, stylish accommodation and warm welcome will leave you with a taste for more!

We look forward to seeing you!
