Domfront

On the way to Mont Saint-Michel, in the heart of the Domfrontais bocage

By staying at the Hotel de France in Domfront en Poiraie, you are in the heart of a small 12th century medieval town character with its castle and religious buildings, classified as the most beautiful detours in France, as well as a remarkable site of the Taste, thanks to its AOC Poiré Domfront and its AOC Calvados Domfrontais. An essential stopover on the road between Paris and Mont-Saint-Michel, Brittany, Calvados, the Pays de Loire, you are in the Domfrontais bocage, in the heart of the Orne. Pretty countryside which offers many possibilities to the amateurs of excursions with, among others the GR22, and superb strolls on a bicycle or VTT with hundreds of maintained tracks. Our hotel benefits, in fact, from a privileged location with the proximity of the greenway 100 m away (junction to the Vélo Francette, the Véloscénie and GR22). You will be able to admire, during your walks, magnificent testimonies of the past: megaliths, Roman remains. As well as these famous Norman manors which made the reputation of the region, architectural marvels convey a certain art of living.

As you move away from Domfront, you will find many remarkable sites and towns: Gorron, Ambrières-les-Vallées, Tinchebray, Vire, Flers, Mortain, Mayenne, Bagnoles de l'Orne, Falaise and of course Mont Saint-Michel !

An authentic and preserved Normandy which is also at the origin of a generous territory that is worthily celebrating its gastronomy and its emblematic specialties: camembert, tripe from Caen, Calvados, the andouillette de Vire ...

Poiré Museum - Barenton

The Perry Museum is the only museum in France dedicated to this sparkling and tasty drink, emblematic of the Mortain and Domfront regions.

What is Perry?

Perry is obtained through the natural fermentation of the juice of unique perry pears from century-old pear trees. This rare product plays on a sweet-acid balance enhanced by a hint of astringency and its fruity bubbles can be enjoyed at any time of day... in moderation!

A recreational and informative visit!

The western gateway to the Normandy-Maine Regional Natural Park and Geopark, this French museum has been located in Barenton since 1983 in the buildings of a typical Normandy bocage farm, made of stone, cob and half-timbering.

The Poiré Museum showcases some amazing collections: from imposing historical pieces used to crush fruit, such as the long-grip press or the granite gadage, to modern tools and processes, you will relive the transformations of the industry up to the present day.

In the green and peaceful setting of its conservatory orchard, rich in around a hundred varieties of pears and apples, come and stroll and relax with family or friends on a fun trail. Take the opportunity to taste local farm products and find out about the events, exhibitions and workshops offered all year round!

The Abbey Biscuit Factory

The origin of the sablé dates back to the beginning of the 18th century in Normandy and is defined as "a rather sought-after type of pastry, which crumbles like sand when eaten." Around 1870, Littré included the word "sablé" in his dictionary, where he defined it as "the name of a type of cake in Normandy."

More than a century ago, in the small Norman village of Lonlay l'Abbaye, Virgile Fouilleul, the baker, between two batches of bread, would gently bake shortbread over a wood fire in molds made by the village carpenter. They were sold on site or sent to soldiers at the front.

Upon his death, his son-in-law, Georges Lautour, took over the business. Mobilized during the Second World War, upon his return, he too decided to start making a Norman shortbread to compensate for the loss of customers due to his prolonged absence... His wife, Hélène, provided him with the recipe from her notebooks...

The Sablé de l’Abbaye was born.
