our region Le Haut
de la Rue is the stone built farmhouse of a small farm on
the outskirts of an unspoilt village, Saint Germain
Langot, about midway between Falaise and the picturesque
and rugged countryside of the Suisse Normandie. It is also within a comfortable drive of the famous Bayeaux Tapestry, Le Mont St Michel, Rouen and even Paris on a good day. Falaise too has historic connec tions, being the birthplace of William the Conqueror. Ideally situated for a country break and just 45 minutes by car from the ferry port at Ouistreham (Caen), whilst not being excessively commercialised there is much to do including golf, horseriding, climbing, swimming, canoeing, windsurfing and even hang gliding and bungy jumping , should the fancy take you. There are museums to visit,
casinos to play in, theatres, churches, chateau, country
markets, and of course the famed Calvados restaurants to
enjoy. None is obligatory, naturally. Some may wish to
just wallow in the calm of the countryside, to enjoy the
occasional walk and to rest a while at a pavement café
or bar. The farmhouse at Le Haut de la Rue is centrally heated, comfortable and spacious. We are pleased to be able to offer a large 2 bedroomed family suite and a large double/ family room. In addition there is a large comfortable guests' sitting room with games and books for children and adults. And comfortable easy chairs to snooze in. Adjacent is the
dining room where breakfast
and dinner are served. When appropriate the fires are lit
to warm cold Outside is a paved terrace with garden furniture to use at leisure and the whole of Le Haut de la Rue is set in grassland of 5 acres planted with trees and shrubs. Both Sophie and Nell (1 Labrador and 1 Collie cross) do their best to make everyone welcome and will happily show you and the children the grounds. The
