The Viking Tower of Planquery. Le Paon.
Description
A Viking residential tower from the 9th century. No castle hotel — one quiet, comfortable room with a modern en suite bathroom in one of the most extraordinary buildings in Normandy. For guests who want to inhabit history, not just visit it. No crowds. Instead: the Milky Way above thousand-year-old towers, owls, deer and Norman silence. High-speed WiFi included — in case the present calls briefly. Dogs very welcome. Bayeux 15 min · Omaha Beach 30 min · Mont Saint-Michel 60 min The space Your Room in the Viking Tower — A Living Piece of History A Viking residential tower from the 9th century. Not many places in Normandy can say that. Our estate has stood for over a thousand years. Guests occupy the left of the two massive towers — we live in the right one. An arrangement that has proven itself. The guest tower has two individually designed rooms, each with its own modern bathroom. The living room and small kitchen are shared spaces — a quiet place to unwind after a day at the D-Day beaches or in Bayeux. We know the region well and are happy to share our tips. Guest access The Garden: A Refuge Beneath the Milky Way This ground has a long memory. Where garden chairs now stand and deer occasionally emerge from the undergrowth, Vikings built a watchtower over a thousand years ago. Why here, of all places — the tower may still know. It’s still standing, in any case. Birds, nutrias and our dogs share the grounds with guests, generally without incident. On moonless nights, when no light pollution dims the sky, the Milky Way appears above the old towers with a clarity long forgotten in the city. A sight that doesn’t so much stop time — as make you feel how much of it has already passed. Registration Details SIRET 98454786900011
