In the Normandy countryside, La Faisane offers a deeply atmospheric retreat where traditional character and contemporary comfort exist in perfect harmony. This beautifully restored 18th-century longère has been thoughtfully extended with a modern wing, creating a luminous, family-friendly home that balances authenticity with fresh, elegant design, ideal for any time of year. Inside, exposed beams, grand fireplaces and quality furnishings speak to a warm, welcoming spirit, all enhanced by the eye of a professional interior designer.
The generous living spaces feel both airy and intimate, with a large salon filled with natural light thanks to expansive glass doors that open directly onto the terrace and garden. The intimate reading room is such an elegant place to relax whilst the beautiful kitchen with its wood beamed ceiling opens to the traditional dining room and a large fireplace.
Each of the five en suite bedrooms exudes individual style with pretty fabrics and chic décor alongside a noticeable attention to detail. There’s a ground floor bedroom, ideal perhaps for intergenerational stays, and four gorgeous doubles across the upper floors, all of which can also be configured as twins.
Outside, discover the gloriously large garden where trees and flowering plants create shade-dappled corners perfect for reading or relaxing. There’s table tennis and boules for family games. The grounds still whisper of their rural past - scattered around the garden are traditional outbuildings, some with thatched roofs, once used for pressing apples and tending animals.
Set just a 10-minute stroll from the village of Épaignes, with its essential shops and local character, La Faisane places you in reach of many Normandy highlights. Spend slow mornings exploring nearby brocantes, cycle through rolling landscapes dotted with orchards, or take scenic trips to Pont-Audemer, Honfleur or the beaches of Trouville-sur-Mer. The region’s gastronomic and cultural riches lie all around, from creamy Pont-l’Évêque cheese to the Belle Époque charm of Deauville.
La Faisane invites you to press pause and savour Normandy at its most timeless, whether you come for the sea, the countryside or the simple joy of time well spent together.
