Domaine Du Pont - Farmhouse

History and gastronomy go hand-in-hand in Normandy, making it a great choice if culture and fine dining are what you’re looking for in a holiday! There’s still plenty on offer besides the food and tales of yesteryear, however – you can take a tour around some of the beautiful inland towns and villages or head to the coast, where you’ll find a mixture of wide sandy beaches and rugged, romantic cliffs. If you’re not already convinced to head to one of our villas in Normandy (or maybe if you’ve already booked) you’ll find a wealth of great things to do, see and eat in our ultimate Normandy travel guide!

Catering can be organised. 2 professional catering companies in the area will be happy to offer their services. Contact Oliver's VIP Concierge Team for details. There is an extra charge for use of the function suite in the stable block of €500 per week.

The caretaker provides daily maid service (1 hour per day is included in the rental price). Any additional cleaning can be arranged on request. Babysitting is also available.

Enjoy gourmet dining experiences with our new Chef Service!
We’re now offering our customers the chance to enjoy some unforgettable eats with our new Chef Service! Choose from booking a single sumptuous meal with a private chef for that special occasion, or hire a chef to cook your meals for all or part of your holiday - it’s as flexible as it is delicious.

A) Single Meal Service: A chef will travel to this villa and whip up a fantastic meal for you and your guests. The chef will arrive with all the necessary ingredients as well as the talent to turn them into something unforgettable. They’ll serve the meal and clear up afterwards - an easy and entertaining way to enjoy a top quality meal in your very own villa!

B) Full Chef Service: If you really want to kick back and relax, we can arrange for a chef to cater for the duration of your holiday (or part of it). With a range of options from simple family catering to full-on haute cuisine, we can organise a meal plan and a price to suit your needs. So why worry about self-catering when you can have everything taken care of?

Of course, before booking this service, we suggest you contact the property owner as they might already offer a similar cook or chef service in-house. To find out more simply visit www.oliverstravels.com/chefs.

Domaine du Pont is a lovely location for a private wedding or celebration. The entire estate can accommodate up to 28 guests in the chateau and farmhouse allowing it to be a highly intimate and romantic occasion.

There is a small chapel on site to cater for a more traditional ceremony, or a service can be held outdoors in the gardens. Additionally, external caterers and chefs can be organised to provide a delicious meal for all the guests.

Please do not hesitate to contact us for information about rates and availability.

Domaine Du Pont - Farmhouse Reviews

• Wow!

  Posted by Gaynor L on 30/08/2016

  What a splendid property with plenty of space and character. A superb view from every room. Not ideal for someone who finds stairs a challenge. A brilliant place for a big family celebration with the Farmhouse and pool area providing additional space. The house keepers cared for us well and made a real difference. Several hidden treasures too.

• We all want to go back!

  Last autumn, after we had made our booking, the managers allowed us to visit the chateau so that we could understand the property and to help us work out where all our guests would go. This gave us a flavour of the special magic of this place which continued into our recent stay.

  All our guests, without exception, had a wonderful time, some found the beds so comfortable that they wanted to take them home! Our guests alternated between either using the pool or the other facilities at the chateau or using it as a base for visiting the surrounding area.

  To have the use of this wonderful chateau was great and made even more special by the care and attention of the owners, not forgetting the wonderful food they provided throughout our stay.

• Top marks!

  We were a large party occupying both main house and the farmhouse.Lovely situation and buildings although the main house needed some maintenance but nothing serious .Garden and grounds were wonderful.Moraig and Mark were excellent,welcoming and helpful.We had Moraig and Mark cater for us and their cooking was really excellent.Both are fine chefs.The heating in the pool was an issue..The kitchen needs to be reorganised with bigger fridge space and better drainage/washing machines.. Would like to have better Wi Fi connection.Overall 9 out of 10..

• We all had a wonderful week

  Posted by Bill on 17/04/2014

  We all had a wonderful week and the only negative reflection among our group was that our stay had to end. The quiet beauty and luxury of your Chateau and the helpful presence of your caretaker Graham and his wife Mandy all combined to make it a memorable experience. I want to personally thank you for putting up with the constant queries, and your patience in responding to them. We took your advice regarding food supplies, restaurants and all the other information you passed on was right on the mark. Again, on behalf of our circle of friends, thank you for providing such a rich and satisfying experience. Who knows, this could easily become an annual habit!
