Fancy overnighting in a rustic log cabin, gypsy caravan or wildlife safari park? We share our choice of very special stays in Northern France.
Sleep in splendour in a French Château
Château des Tesnières is a luxury bed and breakfast in a 19th century castle built by the Count de Langle on 17 acres of wooded park. Guest accommodation consists of two very large bedrooms and four luxury suites – all with great views of the Breton countryside. The chateau is just a few miles from the historic towns of Vitré and Rennes, with the prestigious Rochers Golf Course just minutes from its doors.
Sleep among the tree tops in a tree-house in Orne, two hours from Cherbourg and close to the Perche Astronomy Centre where big and small can marvel at the brilliance of the constellations. The luxurious five-berth tree-house wraps itself around an ancient chestnut tree offering panoramic views across the Perche countryside.
Snuggle up in a log cabin with a cosy wood-burning stove at The Domaine des Ormes, half an hour from St Malo. The 200-hectare estate has a horse riding centre, an 18-hole golf course, a climbing wall, four swimming pools, an aquatic parc and plenty of bikes for hire.
Enjoy a night with a difference in an eco-friendly safari lodge at Cerza wildlife park, two hours’ from Cherbourg. Zoo observatories overlook the gibbons, rhinoceros, gazelles and antelope, allowing you to get up close and personal with wild animals like never before.
Enjoy the traditional surroundings of a beautifully restored Breton barge which is permanently moored in a picturesque spot on the Ille et Rance Canal between Rennes and St-Malo at Montreuil-sur-l’Ille. This floating gite sleeps up to six and has a large kitchen and plenty of living space as well as lovely views from every window.
