Photos and Description of the Calvados vacation house rental A four bedroomed house in village location.

‘Rene’ is a 200 year old former coaching house set on the edge of Balleroy, an attractive village of 600 inhabitants which is well served with shops and less than 30mins from the coast. Excellent roads make it easily accessible from the ports of Cherbourg and le Havre (90 minutes) and only 45 minutes from Caen. The house is a comfortable and well-furnished family home with great character set in the heart of unspoilt countryside and forest. There are open views to the back of the house over the château grounds and the Cerisy forest.
