COUNTRYSIDE B&B

La Becterie is a rural wheelchair-friendly and board-game oriented guesthouse at the heart of Cotentin. Its central location makes it a perfect place to explore the Manche peninsula; a true Cotentin guesthouse — inside and out.

Although located on the english channel and known for its coasts, Manche is a countryside region. La Becterie is a typical example of an ancient farm dating from the 15th century with large stone walls, a pasture and a large woodland sloping garden.

Calm and nature sounds await you in La Becterie making it a fantastic place to rest

DINNER AT LA BECTERIE

Willing to dine at home ? Very fine! For I like to cook ! French or international cuisine – vegetarian food sometimes. It depends on food I find on markets

Specific requests according to your tastes and allergies are gladly accepted.

We serve seafood plates. Quotation on request – we work with a local fishmonger shop

DESIGNED FOR WHEELCHAIR

Noirmoutier ground floor room has been designed to host disabled people. So is the whole ground floor of the house. Easy to navigate, easy to shower; wheelchairs are welcome !

More generally, anyone with mobility difficulties will appreciate the room’s facilities. Specific adaptations can be discussed

The entrance to the house is accessible for people with reduced mobility. There is a ramp, and the doors have a width of 90 cm. People with reduced mobility are encouraged to park in the courtyard, in front of the ramp, rather than in the parking lot.
Some of the many board games arranged on the table dedicated to game events.

BOARDGAME EVENTS

Contact us to rent the whole guesthouse, diner and have a boardgame party. We have a dedicated floor for such events, with a billard, a foosball and (roughly) 50+ games available.

Bricquebec-en-Cotentin

Ideally located, Bricquebec is a small town with much history. The XII century castle’s court is still complete and the keep can be visited during summer months – the view from the keep’s top is worth the climb.

The city offers a wide range of very active and friendly shops. Market takes place on Monday and offers all types of sea food, delicious french cheese and a large range of locally grown vegatables.
