La Basse Cour: Chambres d'Hotes Normandie-Loire, Ancinnes. Holiday Rentals

Description for B&B:

This beautifully restored, picturesque 18th century Normandy farmhouse has three guest rooms (two double, one twin) with private bathrooms. Maximum capacity 6 guests.

Guests have access to a sitting room/library, terraces and gardens equipped with tables and chairs by the side of a small lake.

Our house in the village of Ancinnes is tucked up close to the Forest of Perseigne. This is a wonderful area to explore by car, on foot or by bike.

Major shopping centres 10 minutes. There are excellent restaurants nearby at Neufchatel en Saosnois and Alençon (6-8km).

On the border of Normandy and the Sarthe (Pays de Loire) we are 10 minutes from Alençon and the A28, 30 minutes north of Le Mans, 1 hour south of Rouen.

Bordering Lower Normandy and the Sarthe, Alençon is an ideal base from which to explore the Alpes Mancelles to the west; the Orne and Pays d'Auge to the north; the Saösnois, Marollais and the Perche park to the east; and Pays de la Loire to the south.
