Pont L’Eveque Pont

Pont L’Eveque Pont L'Eveque This historic town lies almost exactly halfway between Lisieux and the seaside towns of Deauville and Trouville. The medieval centre is full of typical Normandy half-timbered architecture and buildings which feature the region’s distinctive chequerboard Pré d’Auge glazed green bricks. The area is famous for Pont l’Eveque cheese. Production dates back to the early Middle Ages, the cheese originally made by monks and named after the village where they sold it at market. Perfect with a glass of refreshing local cider! At the local market you’ll find many small, traditional producers of Pont l’Eveque selling almost exclusively to their local customers. Head to the town hall to visit the town’s former prison where prisoners convicted of petty thefts were allowed their freedom during the day, returning for curfew every evening. In the 1980s, earth was excavated to construct an extension of the A13 motorway past the town. The area naturally refilled and a lake with a beach now covers nearly 300 acres, a great base for water sports. Follow the Normandy cheese trail and discover sleepy villages, dairy farms and rolling fields – plus taste some of the creamiest, most delectable cheeses in the world: normandycheesetrail Where to eat Situated in the heart of Lisieux, Les Soeurs Pinard is a lively bar/restaurant with fresh and imaginative dishes. In the village of Manerbe, Le Pot d’Etain has a seafood and traditional French cuisine menu using local and seasonal products. Eden Park hotel restaurant on the edge of the lake at Pont L’Eveque has gorgeous views over the water. Between 9am and 7pm from Monday to Sunday almost every day of the year, the Halle aux Poissons fish market in Trouville serves fresh seafood and shellfish on site. Whether you fancy oysters for breakfast, lobster for lunch or a huge spider crab as an afternoon snack, they’ve got you covered. Just bring your own bread! In Trouville’s former aquarium, once part of the imposing Hotel de Paris, restaurant l’Aquarius, overlooks the beach. As you would expect, there’s a real emphasis on seafood here, all deliciously fresh and beautifully presented. Where to stay Domaine Le Coq Enchanté is a little oasis of tranquillity nestled on the edge of the picture postcard village of Cambremer. Pont L’Eveque: not far from the coast, Il Etait une Fois is a stylishly renovated B&B in a traditional Norman townhouse and also has a cosy shepherd’s hut for hire in the garden.
