We are Richard and Magda and we love our home, the village and surrounding countryside and want to share it with you.

Putanges-Pont-Ecrepin is a delightful place at any time of year and Le Bosquet makes an ideal base for exploring.  We are an easy drive to the glorious and varied Normandy coast including the D-day Landing Beaches and the many associated museums and memorials.

The nearby Suisse Normande is an area famous for outdoor activities from walking and mountain biking to hang-gliding and kayaking, all carried out in glorious countryside.

Both Bayeux and Mont St Michel make interesting days out and of course for anyone wanting a day or two in the capital, Paris is within easy reach by car or train.

Nearest restaurant: A short stroll into the village with a choice of an informal brasserie or a small hotel restaurant overlooking the river. We also offer supper or dinner by prior arrangement.
Kitchen: Breakfast and an evening meal if you are joining us, will be in the dining room which adjoins the sitting room.
Living area: As we want you to relax and make yourself at home, there is a comfortable lounge with a fire to warm you in the cooler months. This is somewhere for you to sit and talk about your day, perhaps while enjoying a glass of wine and making plans for the next.

There is a large selection of guidebooks, leaflets and maps to help.
Bedrooms: All our bedrooms are individually decorated, with tea/coffee-making facilities, a hair dryer and English/French adapters. There is also an iron and ironing board available should you need one.

Both these rooms have space for a z-bed and/or a cot if required.
Bathrooms: The bedrooms are fully en suite with each one offering something different from a bath designed for leisurely soaks to a shower large enough to share. La Frene's large family bathroom has both a bath and separate shower.
Entertainment on-site: There is a selection of games such as Articulate and Pictionary in the sitting room as well as a choice of books in a bookcase on the landing.

For those of you who need to keep in contact with the outside world we have wi-fi access.

Owners Recommendations

Eating Out

'Such a Choice'
"In and around Putanges there is everything from informal to fine dining. It is even possible to have dinner while cruising on the nearby lake. We can recommend something to suit everyone."

Local Area and Activities

'A Day in Paris'
"Catch the early train from nearby Argentan and be in the capital in time for coffee. Enjoy some of the sights or just take a long leisurely lunch. Perhaps stay a night before returning to the peace of Le Bosquet."

'Bagnoles-de-l'Orne'
"Elegant spa town whose lakeside casino offers tea dances and soirees. Also the chance for relaxation and well-being sessions at the spa."

'Falaise - Birth Place of William the Conqueror'
"Whatever age you are, you will enjoy time spent exploring the castle."

'Rabodanges Lake'
"Just a short drive or if you are feeling more adventurous a slightly slower canoe away. Lots of watersports and a childrens play area with bouncy castles. "

'The Mulberry Harbour at Arromanches'
"A must for anyone interested in the D-day landings as ever now it is hard to comprehend the sheer scale of the undertaking. Plus a particularly nice restaurant for lunch."

Markets and Shopping

'Caen'
"Shopoholics heaven, offering everything from department to designer. "

'Putanges-Pont-Ecrepin'
"With 2 boulangeries, charcuterie, boucher, epicerie and a small supermarket. Plus a small market held every week since 1580, shopping for a picnic is easy."

'St Pierre sur Dives Market'
"A lively, bustling market held every Monday with much to see and buy. It is particularly good on the run up to Christmas."
