Description from owner

Description

Escape to the French countryside at The Dovecote which was built in the 1600's and is one of the oldest historical properties in the area, originally being part of Chateau Fincel. This beautiful thatched cottage can be found adjacent to farmland with stunning countryside views, it has been renovated to help it last for a few hundred years more. It features quirky details like thick wooden beams, a spiral staircase and original pigeon holes in the walls, a log burner.. A car is a must, village of Tessy sur Vire is 5 min and beaches 40 min away with historical places like Bayeux an hour away, Normandy landing beaches 35 min away depending on which beaches you want to visit, Mont St Michel an hour and 15 min easy drive away. We are an easy 4 hour drive from Le Shuttle/ferries at Calais and a 80 min drive from the ferry terminals at St Malo or .Cherbourg. Come and relax and breath the fresh air.
