The Gîte de Mary is a peaceful place in the ornate bocage, nestled in the heart of green meadows crisscrossed by hollow paths bordered by hedges, woods and ponds which make the charm of this territory.
Located in Lower Normandy, about 20 km from Alençon, Argentan and Bagnoles de l'Orne, within the Normandy Maine Natural Park, headquartered in Carrouges, the residence "a farmhouse longère" from the end of the 18th century, was tastefully restored in 2010, respecting local traditions.
Mary, the owner of the gîte, offers you, outside the framework, quality facilities and services, her private swimming pool and the possibility for a couple to sleep in her small wooden chalet.
Facing south-west with views of the surrounding countryside, it has a terrace with its garden furniture and a barbecue, a carport, a playground behind the house which is located on the edge of the little Monthard wood.
The owner of Mary's gîte welcomes you all year round for all your stays.
