Things to do whilst staying at Le Val Borel Bed & Breakfast – Normandy.

 

We are located in Basse-Normandie within easy travelling distance of ferry ports and tourist attractions. Caen is less than an hour away and Cherbourg around a 1 hour and 20 minute drive.

We live in rural Normandy and are short drives away from shops and restaurants;public transport links are limited and we therefore recommend that guests have their own transport. It is possible to travel by train to the towns of Villedieu-Les-Poeles and St Lo and there is a bus between St Lo and Avranches which passes a few miles away from here.

Our local town of Villedieu-Les-Poêles has a variety of shops and restaurants and every day it is possible to find somewhere to dine in the evening; although some evenings such as Sunday, the choice may be more limited. If you are arriving late and hope to eat out, you may wish to book somewhere in advance; let us know if you need help with that.
