Perched on a hill in the heart of the Pays d'Auge, within the walls of the Haras de la Varende, it is an extraordinary site. Surrounded by lush and bewitching nature, you will inevitably be seduced by this atypical old barn renovated with modernity. Each room is unique and invites you to daydream. The bedding set up is of quality.
The Barn has had many original uses: first a stable, then a gastronomic restaurant and finally a nightclub! This gives you a glimpse of all the originality of this innovative house.
A terrace of more than 50 m² will offer you a horizon over the Normandy bocage, which will leave you speechless. The shade of 'The Basswood': the Tilleul will bring you the freshness you are looking for during the heat of summer.... Maximum capacity of 12 people. Possibility to become from two people but the price will be the same as for 6. Supplement of 20€ per person from 6.

Séjour très agréable, le cadre est vraiment incroyable avec de grands espaces. La maison propose des présentations haut de gamme et une literie exceptionnelle. Rien de manque. Nous avons été très bien accueilli par les propriétaires sur place. Cette maison, bien qu’isolée dans la nature, est attenante à un autre gîte. Privilégier les séjours familiaux et calmes.
Tres bel endroit au calme dans la verdure dans une bâtisse rénovée avec goût ! Alix a été très arrangeante et nous a bien conseillé pour des courses ou activités dans le coin. L’apéro au couché du soleil sur la terrasse ou la fin de journée autour du poêle ont été très appréciés ! Nous reviendrons !
Tous les ans nous organisons une cousinade. En cette fin d’année nous avons choisi le haras de Varende - baswood. Une belle demeure extrêmement bien située, proche de Lisieux. Au calme et très joliment décorée. Elle est agréable en novembre et le sera tout autant au printemps. Les hôtes sont très accueillants et charmants.
