Description
We are François and Coline, a couple in their thirties! After traveling to many countries and discovering different cultures and projects, we took on the challenge of creating our own corner of paradise and decided to renovate a Norman farmhouse with 2 hectares of land. We want to create an independent garden with vegetable garden, orchard and henhouse.

We provide food and can provide you with a sheltered tent in an (open) barn. Once the farmhouse is isolated we can welcome you there.
