Nestled in the verdant heart of Normandy and just over an hour from Paris, Manoir des Lys is a rare retreat and exceptional luxury villa in Normandy where history and modern comfort meet. Originally commissioned in 1653 as a hunting lodge, this architectural gem has been lovingly preserved and reimagined, blending centuries of French heritage with thoughtful innovation. Recognised as a historic monument in 1996, the Manoir continues to carry its legacy forward while opening its doors to a new generation of guests.
In 2019, the estate began a new chapter under the care of a Scotch-American family, who modernised the property while honouring its authentic character. Building on that foundation, the family expanded the Manoir into a place of gathering and renewal, adding a pool, tennis court, sauna, massage room, and glass-walled gym. The result is more than just a destination; it is a welcoming refuge designed for creating memories, whether tranquil escapes or joyous celebrations. This private villa in Normandy offers an ideal setting for families and groups seeking both relaxation and recreation.
Manoir Des Lys offers the perfect balance: a serene countryside sanctuary with easy access to the cultural treasures of Paris. Guests are invited to step into its storied past while writing their own chapter, discovering the timeless beauty of Normandy, savoring its peaceful landscapes, and experiencing a retreat that truly feels like home.
