Le Jeu du Cotentin

It's all about knowing Cotentin

Le Jeu du Cotentin is a fun, local trivia game all about this beautiful peninsula. Players move their pawns across the Cotentin map, answering questions on history, geography, culture, and more. When they land on iconic locations like the Nez de Jobourg, Goury, or Carteret, they get special challenge questions worth victory points. The first team to reach five points wins. It’s both entertaining and educational — a great way to explore the region even after a full day out. Want to check your Cotentin’s knowledge at La Becterie? This game is the perfect excuse, and I love to play it with my guests, which they appreciate greatly.

A friendly match to end a lovely stay

Recently, Brigitte and Richard stayed with us for a full week. They explored the Cotentin thoroughly, often following our local tips. Several evenings, they joined us at the table d’hôtes. We had very pleasant moments, much fun!  On one of such evenings, with two young cyclists also staying here, we shared a festive dinner followed by a lively round of *Le Jeu du Cotentin*. The atmosphere was warm and full of laughter. While Richard’s performance was… let’s say, variable, Brigitte was brilliant. Together, they claimed victory — just barely! I still learn new things every time I play. This article is for them — they truly deserve it.

Do like them, come and stay by us, and don’t forget to check your Cotentin’s knowledge by playing with us !
