 ~ Manoir de Caillemont ~






On the historic Cotentin peninsula of Normandy in the département of the Manche, is the grand Manoir de Caillemont, a historic residence whose hosts, Monsieur and Madame Fouché, offer a warm welcome and exceptional comfort to their guests.  The location, just a short ferry ride from the Channel Islands, makes it special indeed with easy access from the islands as well as from Britain.   The nearby coastline is dotted with seaside villages offering restaurants, shopping and sightseeing convenient for those staying at Caillemont.

Manoir de Caillemont

 MANOIR DE CAILLEMONT

Guest rooms, all named for the Channel Islands themselves, are en suite with elegant furnishings and are cozy and peaceful retreats.  Two suites and two double guest rooms comprise the accommodations at Manoir de Caillemont, but a studio apartment is also offered for rental by the week and includes a kitchenette.  It sleeps two to four persons comfortably.
Chambre Aurigny
Open from March 26th this year, guests can enjoy the heated swimming pool (not a common amenity in Normandy), a pleasant library, a billiards room, games of darts or ping pong, and children's swings.  Nearby attractions include coastal resort towns and beaches, a nine-hole golf course, horseback riding, water sports, the towns of Barneville-Carteret (Channel Islands ferries) Cap de Carteret (lighthouse), Valognes (cider museum), Cherbourg, Ste Mère-Eglise, Coutances, Granville (casino) and Villedieu-les-Poêles where you can shop almost forever for copperware!

A wonderful French breakfast is included in the room rates, and dinner is served with advance reservation.  Unusual, however, is the option to enjoy a light mid-day meal and the availability of beverages such as tea or coffee in the coffee shop in the château.

Salon in Guernesey SuiteWe love Normandy and are pleased to be able to offer many Norman chambres d'hôtes and châteaux for rent on our web site.  But, each one is unique with its own special features and offerings.  Manoir de Caillement is no exception.  It is an imposing stone structure which may be quite daunting at first glance, but the inviting rooms, friendly hosts and the ambiance will make your stay truly memorable!  We hope you will be visiting Manoir de Caillemont on our web site soon to see more photos and learn more of the history surrounding this fine residence.
