Photos and Description of the Manche vacation chateau / country house rental 16th Century manor house in Normandy

Located at the edge of a river in a small valley, this 16th century manor house has been recently restored and features an original thatched roof. The exterior amenities include a large terrace, a garden equipped with outdoor furniture and 2.5 hectares of grounds. Manoir de la Gauguinier is located just 5km from the small town of Haye du Puits which offers a good selection of shops and is 40km south of Cherbourg. Other nearby towns include Coutances (30km), Ste Mere Eglise (25km) and the Landing Beaches (Utah). The beautiful 16th century Manoir de la Gauguinier, set in spacious century old grounds and surrounding countryside offers a glorious feeling of stepping back in time to a part of France where time passes by unnoticed and very little ever changes.

The manor house is only 35km from the port of Cherbourg and 5km from the small town of La Haye du Puits which has a busy Wednesday morning market full of local produce. There are also numerous restaurants, a large selection of 100 shops and three supermarkets throughout the area. The chateau is located in an area of amazing wildlife interest with numerous marvellous walks and cycle rides in the Marais natural park. Visitors can see crested cranes and herons, deer, goats and even wild boar in the Mont d'Etenclin hills. Another great way to see the Cotentin and it's idyllic on the beach is riding, with several stables in the area. The huge beaches are also ideal for many seaside activities including sand surfing. The town of Portbail, five km from the chateau also offers sailing and water sports, or simply the chance spend the day fishing on the river. Cherbourg has a renowned 18-hole golf course whilst Barneville-Carteret and Agon-Coutainville have 9-hole golf courses.

The property has four bedrooms (rooms can be arranged as either twin or double rooms) for eight adults. One bedroom can be increased to a triple room using the additional adult single bed. There is the option to increase the occupancy of another bedroom by one, as it has a small bed, suitable for a child of up to six or seven years old.

The room is decorated in the 16th century style with a Louis XIV armoire and writing desk, a coffer, and a tapestry and also has an antique, wrought iron cot. The en-suite bathroom for the room is located in the tower. Upstairs are the remaining bedrooms and bathrooms. The first room, la Chambre des Arts, was once the seigneurial master bedroom.
