You won’t find anything like it anywhere in the world. Owned by the same family for 800 years after surviving numerous invasions, occupations, and other major historical events, it was recently renovated to accommodate remote workers from all over the world. While keeping the property's authenticity, the owners have succeeded in bringing comfort and modernity.

In front of the castle, we also have a manor that has three apartments with private bathrooms and kitchens for extra independence. You still have access to the castle and the shared spaces for the community, of course.

- Grand living room with a cosy fireplace and many sofas.
- Dining room that can be used to eat or work. 
- Coworking space is top notch with everything you need - office chairs, lots of desk space, a coffee machine, a video projector, a library, a printer, and a scanner.
- Two very well-equipped kitchens to cook whatever you want. We also love to promote common dinners to share!
- Immense private park surrounding the castle is a treasure. You can easily go for a walk, enjoy nature around you, and see some rabbits and deer. Wake up to the sound of birds singing, take a refreshing morning walk in the woods or along the river, and see the gorgeous racehorses running.
- 80 hectares of private land offer total immersion in the heart of the Regional Natural Park of Cotentin.
- Screen projectors and two sound systems.
- Library with old and new books in different languages.

Community

This property is for digital nomads, freelancers, entrepreneurs, voyageurs, animals, and nature lovers. We love animals and spending time in nature, as long as those who want to work remotely can share experiences and meet new people. Our Coliving gives you space and quietness to concentrate on your projects without missing out on social life and fun activities. You’ll find the easy-going and friendly atmosphere of a coliving, in the lush historical setting of a castle.
