    Description

    I am a 60 year old woman who discovered a passion for horses 30 years ago and who left the Paris region to settle in Normandy to live this passion fully.
    Today I live with my oldest daughter of 30 years to whom I transmitted this love for the horses and we take care today of a dozen horses. Foals, mares, ponies and geldings relax in our meadows before going to train for competitions.
    I suggest you come to live this experience through a total immersion in the heart of the life of horses in my large farm located in the heart of the Channel.
    There are also 4 dogs, 2 cats and 1 rabbit living in harmony with us :)

    My house is a big farm, divided in two parts because my mother lives in the other part.
    There are plenty of horse facilities, a large garden, fields and a pool.
    You will have your own room and bathroom and I would be happy to share meals with you, as well as the discovery of our beautiful region.
