Maison de la Calonne. Riverside home near to village centre and countryside

A unique, detached house, terrace & garden room, sitting right on the Calonne river, just 1-min walk to all that beautiful Cormeilles has to offer; Bars, Cafes, Theatre, Restaurants, 2 x Boulangeries, Boucherie, Poisonnierre, Fromagerie, Chocolatier, etc, plus a typical French market selling local produce on Friday. Countryside walks and running trails in the Pays d'Auge from your door. Even a Calvados distillery within walking distance, perfect for sipping by the large log-burning stove in the lounge or sat on the terrace right by the rushing river. With a “Pete’s Oven BBQ Fire Pit”, outdoor seating & hammock, right by the river - the terrace is a special place both during the day and evenings. A den/games/movie room adjacent to the terrace ensures there’s something for everyone. A coffee and croissant either on the terrace or at one of the local cafes is the perfect start to the day. Along with the high quality 100% bamboo bed linens for that resort-quality feel, you have the perfect combination for a deeply replenishing vacation.

Cormeilles:
With so much to explore, you will never lack something to do. Walks along the river to the local supermarket, the theatre just along the walkway opposite the house. Take the Pétanque set provided to the Pétanque court which sits alongside the river, again just along the walkway opposite. Lots of mapped and way-marked walks or just a walk up the hill from the house for beautiful views over Cormeilles and surrounding countryside.

The Surrounding Area:
Just 30-mins away from the stylish seaside towns of Deauville & Trouville - for a swim in the sea or a polo match. Visit local chateaux, William the Conquerer's chateau in Falaise just 1-hr drive away. 20-mins from Lisieux, packed with activities including Kayaking on the river, another fantastic market and stacks of historical buildings. Animal-lovers will delight at the opportunity to milk goats (optional) at the local goat farm just 12-mins drive away where you can buy the local cheese too. Cerza safari park also just 12 mins drive away (complimentary passes included). Two local fishing lakes; one at the edge of the town (walking distance), the other 2 miles away. Normandy landings also just a 1-hr drive away. Pony l’Eveque, with it’s beautiful swimming lake and lakeside bar, and Liverot - home of the local cheeses just 25-min. Pont Audermer for historic tanneries, 25-mins. Brocantes, town fairs and outdoor concerts held throughout the summer.

A family-owned home, with a lot of travel experience between us, we have given great thought to what makes the perfect holiday home. A beautiful, comfortable and relaxing space, blissful sleep, inspiring cook's kitchen (newly fitted) and a holiday to remember.

Within an hour's drive of ferry ports of Ouistreham and Le Harve and just 3 hours from the Eurotunnel terminal.

Nice property, well located
Nicely furnished, well equipped house, literally a couple of minutes walk from Cormeilles centre. Easy parking (we parked right outside every day without effort). Joanne responded very quickly to a couple of minor queries. We would stay again.

A relaxing time in a beautifully quirky house
Had a great 10 night break in Cormeilles. The town is typical of this part of France and is very pretty with everything that you need for day to day living and a lovely river that winds all through the town. There is a food market every Friday and we made good use of Mr Sulky's coffee shop and the bakery a couple of doors down. There is a supermarche which is a pleasant 10 min walk away where you can buy everything you need to cook at home. The house is a wonderfully quirky shape. There are no square rooms here and it's great fun! The staircase is lovely and was my favourite part, although they are steep so may be an isdue for some. Beds are super comfy, kitchen was well equipped. The fridge is pretty small in the kitchen, so we shopped small and often, but there is another one in the outside garden room, which is well stocked with beer, wine and soft drinks (operates on an honesty policy) so it all worked for us. The owners are wonderful. There was a fault with the internet which they went out of their way to fix very quickly and were also very helpful with recommending things to do in the area. Would recommend

Wonderful village
The property is very tastefully restored and located in the centre of the village. Be sure to take time to discover the village and chat with the locals in one of the cafés near the property. We enjoyed spending time in the cafés and restaurants surrounding the home. The hosts are charming and very accommodating. An excellent welcome package with local specialties was awaiting us upon our arrival and communication with the owners was superb. They really do have the comfort of their guests in mind. The only cautionary comment we would make is that the wooden stairway leading from the ground floor to upper floors can be difficult to navigate with luggage. Any adults who are not entirely steady on their feet or young children will need to take special care.

Quirky French House
A quirky house in a typical small French town - great if you want to be able to step out of the front door to access a selection of eateries and bakeries. The property is decorated with carefully chosen items that both compliment and celebrate the building’s past. The outdoor space enhances the space further. The hosts were very friendly, informative and welcoming. They promptly answered all questions about the local area. The welcome basket was a real treat and much appreciated. We would confidently recommend to families with older children or groups of adults.

Quirky property in good location with nice outside space
We really liked the property, which had some quirky features. The kitchen area had a modern twist but retained its period. You need to be fairly agile as the stairs are rather steep and the shower is on the top floor. The outside space is really useful to have, as we spent every night sitting out there. We were a family of 3 adults, so suited us well, the hut with darts, coffee machine, bbq etc was very handy. The outside seats could be updated slightly as were a bit uncomfortable after a while, but that’s probably more to do with sitting to eat and play games for a long time. Comeilles was a lovely town, great restaurants, bars and well stocked supermarket. We only had a short 3 night stay but would highly recommend this property.

Comfortable Home in a Wonderful Location.
The house is very well equipped for a comfortable stay with everything we needed and more . Joanne and Ivan, Ian and Tammie were very attentive hosts , nothing was too much trouble. We enjoyed the generous welcome pack on arrival . We experienced a genuine taste of the French lifestyle literally on the doorstep in the town of Cormeilles . A wonderful location for exploring Normandy , with beautiful coastal resorts within 30 min drive . After a day out , the riverside terrace and outside entertainment area (Den ) is a private area for relaxing evenings and a BBQ .The comfortable beds and luxury bedding made for a good nights sleep . There is so much more to see in the area we would definitely like to stay here again .

Leuk goed gelegen knus traditioneel huis
Wij hebben het erg naar ons zin gehad in dit huis. Het was schoon, knus en apparaten, bestek en handdoeken ruimschoots aanwezig. Huis ligt centraal in het dorp met allemaal winkels in de buurt. Ook is er een Carrefour in het dorp. Al met al een heerlijk week met ons gezin gehad.

Wonderful house and super nice hosts!
The house is beautiful and has great charm. We sat on the terrace every evening and enjoyed the sound of the brook that flows right next to the house. The house is well equipped and the hosts are always ready to give recommendations and tips. Thank you very much, we will definitely be back :-)
