Ferme de la Rançonnière
Everything about this baronial manor house is awe inspiring, but the prices and immensely warm welcome are anything but intimidating. Four stone mansions dating from the 13th to the 15th centuries and clustering around a large courtyard combine to form a wonderfully romantic, charming country hotel only a few miles south of the coast near Asnelles. The restaurant, with its exposed stone walls and beamed ceiling, is just as charming. Traditional Norman cuisine gets a modern twist, with dishes that might include beet-marinated salmon with pineapple tartare or confit of pork with creamed corn and tandoori popcorn . Fixed-price menus run between 37€ and 49€, with a popular weekend brunch at 39€. The restaurant is open to the public.
