Places of Interest

The Old Creamery is close to the market town of Tessy Sur Vire, which sits astride the River Vire. There is a tow path to walk along, to St lo in the north and Vire in the south, and fishing permits are easy to purchase, and enjoy the excellent sport. At Pont Farcy (3km from the gite) you can go on a half or full day canoe trip down river, a great day out, in lovely country side. The bungee jump site of A J Hackett is only 10 minutes drive, with a 100km zip line, and a family adventure course through the tree tops, and the not to be missed devil carts! Very fast, and not just for kids! There is two local zoos well worth a visit, and of course you are only a short drive from the not to be missed sites of Mont St Micheal, and the Bayeux tapestry, which tells the story of William the conquers invasion of England in 1066, and the battle of Hastings. The cottage is of course in the middle of the battle of Normandy battlefield, and indeed if you look at the back of the house you can see where a shell blew a large hole in 1944. You can visit all the D Day Beaches, and the various museums and monuments that can be found in each of the towns and villages on your trip to the beaches. If you have time left you should visit one of the many cider farms, which are open to the public where the owners will encourage you to try the cider, calvados, and other apple brews, or go on the route De Traditions, which takes you to local farms where they make bread, grow snails!, and breed pigeons amongst others. During your stay you should visit one of the local street markets, and enjoy sausage and frites cooked out side and buy the best local produce, perhaps a strong cheese or some sea food or veg. In the gite we have plenty of tourist information to plan your stay.
