Week in paradise. Nestled amidst the picturesque countryside of Normandy, Maison is a charming haven that captures the essence of rustic living. My week-long stay at this delightful homestead was an unforgettable experience, offering a perfect blend of warmth, tranquility, and exploration. We were greeted by the warm smiles of Agnes and Bernard, the gracious hosts who call Maison their home. The house itself is a masterpiece of shabby chic decor, a tasteful fusion of vintage elegance and rural simplicity. Every detail in the interior had a purpose, exuding a unique character and charm that made us feel like I'd stepped into a storybook.Their local knowledge and recommendations for exploring Normandy and Brittany were invaluable. From suggesting hidden gems to sharing personal stories, they added an extra layer of authenticity to my travel experience. Each morning began with a delightful surprise – fresh eggs from the chickens that roamed the vast property, the most delicious pancakes, made with those very eggs, for breakfast.The farm-fresh ingredients added a special touch to every meal, making dining at Maison an absolute delight. Surrounded by lush greenery, the estate is home to a menagerie of adorable goats, sheep, and chickens. It was a joy to stroll around the grounds, taking in the fresh country air and observing the animals in their natural habitat. The strategic location of Maison makes it the ideal base for exploring both Normandy and Brittany. Whether you wish to explore historic landmarks, sample exquisite local cuisine, or simply soak in the breathtaking scenery, this homestead is perfectly situated for it all. We left Maison with a sense of gratitude and a promise to return someday to this enchanting home away from home.
