The Orangerie Bed & Breakfast is a beautiful French estate in the middle of the lovely coutryside of the  Pays d’Auge.  The manicured grounds are home to a splendid garden, including extensive lawns and a private forest

The house itself is an elegant Eighteenth Century building, with a serene, happy atmosphere, where  you can enjoy a very relaxing holiday.

The hamlet has several old housesand a church which is no longer used. The original château was destroyed, but the estate still has a certain aristocratic air. 

The Orangerie Bed & Breakfast was originally built to house orange trees in  the winter, but it was transformed in the early 19th century. The  current owners have preserved all the original architectural elements, and the antique-furnished rooms are very cozy, with everything geared to your comfort.

We offer 3 double rooms, and one room with three beds, perfect for children. 

The Blue Room:
The ancient pavement gives this room its charm. There's a large double bed, as well as an en-suite bathroom (shower, no bath tub). The window frames are surrounded with the branches of a vivacious grapevine, which has succulent grapes in the fall that you can pick from your bedroom.

The Pink Room:
Furnished with French antique furniture, with a large double bed too. The  comfortable en-suite bathroom (bathtub) is impressively sized.

The Vegetable Garden Room and the children’s room:
Overlooking the former vegetable garden, this room's a little smaller than the others, but it also has a double bed. The bathroom is just next door, and also serves the children’s room with three single beds. 

We serve breakfast in the decorated kitchen or in the garden in front of the house, where you can enjoy the morning sun. Your host, Marie-Christine,   serves tea, coffee, or hot chocolate (your preference), as well as milk, fruit juice, crispy croissants, jam and local butter.

She'd love to enjoy a cup with you, and will tell you all about the great attractions the area has to offer - there are so many hidden treasures.

The Orangerie Bed & Breakfast is in a great location for bycicling and walking tours, along beautiful country roads. There's also a riding club just 15 minutes away for horseback riding.

The châteaux of Vendeuvre (with incredible miniature furniture and surprise gardens), Mézidon-Canon,Crèvecoeur (exhibition of  local architecture worth seeing ), St. Germain du Livet, and the Haras du Pin are all close by.

There are also a number of old villages you can visit, including Beuvron en Auge, Beaumont en Auge, and Préaux St . Sébastien.

There are beaches just 1 hour away as well as Deauville, Trouville, Honfleur and its old streets and extraordinary church. And there's a summer concert season and festivals in Deauville. 

Guests who stay for longer than three days or are traveling with children are welcome to use the kitchen to make your own meals. Dogs are also welcome at L'Orangerie Bed & Breakfast.

Come visit us in the beautiful French Countryside!
