A Taste of Normandy – Visit Local Cider & Calvados Producer Michel Breton

Just minutes from the château, discover true Norman tradition at the charming farm of Michel Breton. Here, cider, calvados, pommeau and fresh juices are crafted with care and passion – just like the ones you taste at breakfast.

We’re happy to arrange a guided visit and tasting, offering a genuine insight into local culture and the journey from orchard to bottle.

From breakfast table to guided tour

You may already be familiar with Michel Breton’s products – we serve their delicious apple and pear juices at breakfast here at the château.
Now you have the opportunity to discover the place behind the flavour.

We can arrange both a tour and a tasting at Michel Breton’s farm, where you'll gain insight into the entire production process – from orchard to bottle.
Everything takes place at the heart of their charming family estate, where the love of tradition and quality is visible in every detail.

The friendly couple behind the farm are always happy to welcome guests from Château du Gué aux Biches and proudly share their craft.
It’s a warm, authentic experience that offers a unique glimpse into Norman life and local culture.

This isn’t about mass production – it’s about a deep respect for nature, the land, and great taste. And you can feel it.

If you’d like to visit during your stay, just let us know – we’ll gladly help you book a tour you won’t soon forget.
