David and Allison were amazing hosts. The farm is charming and everything you could possibly want or need was provided. The rooms were beautiful and very comfortable. The bathrooms were perfect. We had plenty of tea and coffee in our rooms and the view was lovely. We had breakfast every morning and took a French picnic home with us when we had to leave early due to Covid-19. It was all lovely and way more than we could possibly eat. I strongly recommend the farm for your next (and every) stay in Normandy. You have the charm, convenience and history in one incredible location. We will be back as soon as we can possible make it happen. Stay here. You won’t regret it.
United States of AmericaEverthing was great! + They serve an amazing (and huge) four-course meal if ordering in advance. Great wine as well. Highly recommended. (I got an email from owners if I was interested. No info about this on booking.com that I could see?!)
SwedenDecorations were perfect. Bed was comfortable. Breakfast was great. He will cook you eggs or waffles, and lots of deli meats and cheeses, breads, chocolate muffins, cereals, yogurts. They have options of adding an evening meal. He is quite the chef! 4 courses! Gourmet, delicious! Great value too.
United States of AmericaThis is a perfect area to enjoy this part of Normandy and even more perfect if you want the ideal location for WW2 sights around Sainte-Mere-Eglise. We absolutely lucked out by choosing this property and will definitely stay here in the future. The host family was wonderful. The property was very enjoyable. My wife loved the everything about it - breakfast, surroundings, hosts. We have only the highest praise for The Old Farm at Amfreville.

BelgiumSuch a lovely place with so much detail and history. The owners did a great job renovating the old farm. David and Alyson gave us a lot of recommendations on what to do in the area. The location is perfect, quiet but centrally located close to Sainte Mere Eglise (5min) and the D-Day landing beaches. Breakfast was really extensive and on request David will make you eggs and/or waffles ;) He's an outstanding chef and I would !!highly!! recommend the dinner they offer.

The Old is situated at Cauquigny, just 4 km from the historic town of Sainte Mere Eglise, famous for where paratrooper John Steele was caught on the church spire and the location is central to where the majority of the airborne invasion began as relived on the famous television show ‘Band of Brothers‘ We are just a moment’s walking distance from the memorial to Charles D Glopper and a 10 minutes walk from La Fiere. This year on June 6th 2019 – marks the 75th anniversary of D-Day During the German occupation, the farm and its outbuildings housed a 91st Infantry Division officer and the 20 men under his command, who operated a field post office and communication center here. Later it was used as a German field hospital temporarily during the battle of Normandy, until its liberation by the 82nd Airborne Division
The Old Farm of Amfreville has been lovingly restored by husband and wife team, David and Alyson. They want to ensure your stay is as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. The rooms have been furnished to a high standard – with comfort at the forefront of their minds. David recently retired from the British Army, after 24 years as a military chef. So not only will he share your passion for military events and family ancestry – you can be sure that the attention to detail for breakfast and dinner is as it should be. Both David and Alyson, due to their local knowledge, will be on hand to assist with any enquiries with your itinerary during your stay.
The Old Farm is centrally located at the heart of the Airborne liberation of Normandy. The region of Normandy, is rich with military history including being a short drive from the D-Day landing beaches and also offers some stunning natural scenery, as well as some of the worlds most epic architecture.
