Charming
Bed and Breakfasts

This B&B is located opposite the abbey in the pretty village of St Germer-de-Fly, on the border between Picardy and Normandy. It is a huge, long building, with a garden on one side and an orchard on the other, making it a veritable haven of greenery and calm. An artist’s studio has recently been added to house the works of Jean-François Comte, a talented painter who is also a film director and writer. His paintings decorate the walls of every room in the house. Upstairs, the guest bedrooms named ‘’La flèche du parthe’’ and ‘’L’amour des trois losanges’’ ooze charm. They are spacious, furnished with traditional furniture and the latter has a beautiful ensuite bathroom. The two other guest bedrooms are in the attic and are smaller but cosier. On certain evenings, Chloé prepares tasty meals in her kitchen using fresh produce from small, local producers. The elegant, generous breakfasts offer a range of fresh fruit, farmhouse cheese and home-made cakes and pastries. The surrounding area is rich in historic buildings and other attractions, including abbeys, chateaux, listed villages and unusual gardens. The B&B’s location on the London-Paris Green Route makes it an ideal, upmarket overnight stop for cyclo-tourists.
