4 seasons
at home
Enjoy activities and facilities adapted to each season, from the swimming pool in summer to the warmth of the stove in winter, from the gardens in bloom in spring to the beauty of the forests in autumn.
Spring
Forest walks
Set off on foot from the gîte along country lanes lined with fields, meadows and forests for a rejuvenating walk.
Outdoor games
Take advantage of the games available on site: table tennis, petanque, molkky and badminton in the garden.
Barbecue
Celebrate the warm weather with family and friends over a barbecue. Set a nice big table and enjoy these moments of reunion.
Foot reflexology
Still can't quite let go? Our professional practitioner comes to the gîte for 1-hour foot reflexology and relaxation sessions.
Treasure hunt in the garden
Easter egg hunts, treasure hunts, hide-and-seek games... the flower-filled gardens and trees of the two gîtes are ideal for all the great quests of young and old alike!
Summer
Swimming pool & sun loungers
From mid-May to mid-September, enjoy a swim in the gîtes' two heated outdoor pools.
Jogging and muscle toning
Go for a run on the roads and paths around the gîte, followed by a muscle-building session by the pool or a yoga session.
Braziers & marshmallows
What could be more emblematic than a summer evening toasting marshmallows over a brazier?
Grandes tablées d'Été
It's summer, and the time for big tables that stretch into the late afternoon, followed by great discussions and board games. Tables, chairs, dishes and a beautiful plate service are at your disposal.
Visit to the Kitchen Garden
Discover our Permaculture vegetable garden, where courgettes, tomatoes, carrots, aubergines and cucumbers grow, as well as the adjoining orchard with its blueberries, raspberries, apples, pears and plums. The produce is available for sale, and there's also an educational tour for children.
Autumn
Board games
By the stove, snuggled up on the sofas or taking advantage of the large wooden tables in the gîtes, play our many board games available in each house (6 qui prend, Skyjo, Codenames, Risk, Monopoly, card games).
Cookery workshops
Apples, pears, chestnuts or pumpkins... autumn is full of local flavours that inspire stews, pies and generous desserts. The spacious, fully-equipped kitchens in the gîtes make it easy for everyone to get started.
Autumn brazier
Braziers, plaids and hot drinks... autumn invites you to extend the evening outside in a warm atmosphere. Taste one of the gîtes' homemade jams for an even tastier experience.
Karaoke night
We'll help you hire and set up equipment for a memorable evening at the gîte.
Creating herbariums and collecting chestnuts in the forest
Explore the forest paths and collect autumn leaves and treasures to create beautiful herbariums. It's also the perfect season to fill baskets with chestnuts.
Winter
Raclette evenings
There's nothing like a raclette to warm up winter evenings. We share our addresses of cheese and wine shops in Honfleur and make our equipment available.
Blind test in the living room
Cosy up by the stove for an evening of music. Steaming tea, hot cookies and a friendly atmosphere. The gîtes are equipped with high-performance speakers.
Winter walk
Put on your boots and coat for an invigorating walk around the gîte in the Normandy countryside in winter, the perfect way to recharge your batteries.
Table football tournament
At Les Maisons Pommes only, take advantage of the table football to organise your own tournaments and share convivial moments.
Gourmet & energising
Every morning, wake up to the sound of birdsong and the smell of hot coffee and toasted farmhouse bread. Savour Les Fresnettes' homemade jams and take advantage of our advice to discover the best local shops and businesses, to put together an authentic brunch with local flavours.
