Manoir de Mathan

This fortified manor house with corner towers and arrow slits occupies elevated ground with views across the bocage—the hedged agricultural landscape characteristic of Normandy. Fifty to one hundred fifty guests gather in reception rooms where stone walls remain exposed and tall windows face outward toward farmland. The property retains its working moat and narrow bridge entrance, adding theatrical drama to arrivals. Guest cottages dot the grounds, and the kitchen operates within the main building using a restored Victorian-era configuration.
