Very historic, Quaint, clean, beautifully decorated, with wonderful hosts. Perfect location for exploring Normandy.

Aimee United States of America

Davis and Alyson have thought of everything to make a fabulous Normandy stay! We had great exploring by day and excellent dining and relaxation at night.

Connie United States of America

The room was large and spacious overlooking a pasture filled with cows. A good size bathroom with a soaking tub. The breakfast was good with eggs and waffles available. The location is excellent for visiting Sainte Mere-English and Utah beach areas. The owners are very knowledgeable about the area and shared insight on the battles around that area. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay..

Daniel United States of America

the owners have put fabulous ideas and lots of work into creating this gem of a B and B. beautiful and comfortable. we truly felt like guests in their home. And Dave’s cooking deserves some attention from Michelin. don’t miss enjoying at least one of their very delicious dinners.

Sherryl United States of America

This was our first experience of Bed and Breakfast as I would normally staff in hotels. I can honestly say the trip was exception, from the moment we arrived to departures the experience was amazing. The evening meal is a must, fantastic food and overall a great experience. I would highly recommend

Pilling United Kingdom

A ten rating is not appropriate for the location. I am 78 years and have been traveling in Europe since 1961 and the is the BEST location I have ever stay at bar NONE. Our meals at were outstanding also. My supper the last night was more than outstanding since the owner is also the Chef for the property and a retired English Army Officer.

Lesle United States of America

This was our second stay at the Old Farm, and it was just as lovely as we remember. We stayed in the garden room this time, which has an outdoor patio perfect for relaxing in the afternoon. The included breakfast is a highlight, but make sure to book dinner (amazing!) or one of the other delicious food experiences (English tea, charcuterie, picnics, bbq, etc.) that they offer. David and Alyson are exceptional hosts who give great information about Normandy, history, things to do, etc. Normandy has so much more to offer than just DDay history, and we didn’t regret taking David’s advice to explore the west coast along the Rue de Caps. We are already looking forward to our next visit!

Elizabeth United States of America

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.

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.
