About this campspace

For lovers of nature, calm and serenity. Halfway between Mont-Saint-Michel and the D-Day landing beaches. Close to some great festivals!

We are an organic micro-farm producing aromatic and medicinal plants, berries, edible flowers and heirloom vegetables. A green setting: working in biodynamic and permaculture methods, the crops are mixed in a lightly landscaped park, with trees and scents, and nooks and crannies with different atmospheres and scents. These nooks and crannies are at your disposal, but dogs are not allowed.
