La Cidrerie is situated half way between the villages of St Pierre Langers and La Lucerne d’Outremer. It is 1km away from the beautiful Abbaye de la Lucerne. The bigger village of Sartilly is 3km away, with its boulangeries and small shops.

St Pierre Langers is situated between the lively port of Granville, with its seafood restaurants and shops, and Avranches, sited on a hilltop with lovely views of Le Mont St Michel. Granville is also the birthplace of Christian Dior, where the Dior House and Museum can be found, whilst Avranches has many links to the 1939 – 45 World War, when it was Patton’s base for the US push from the south after D Day.

The superb beaches of Jullouville, St Pair Sur Mer and St Jean le Thomas are within 8km of La Cidrerie, and there are many invigorating walks to be found in the forest of La Lucerne nearby.

The Normany landing beaches are within an hour’s drive from La Cidrerie and make a fascinating day-out, whilst the tapestry at Bayeux is not to be missed.

Villedieu les Poêles is the place to go if you are looking for copper houseware; it also has a bell foundry and large, lively market on Tuesdays.

Le Mont St Michel is only 30 minutes away by car and is simply awe-inspiring. Go in the evening to see the town magically lit-up – its also less crowded!
