Domfront star : The Michelin guide review

Domfront enjoys an enviable location on the old road from Mont St-Michel to Paris. Perched 70m above the River Varenne, it stands out in two ways. One as a gastronomic town at the heart of a landscape given over to pear trees (try the local pear drink). Two as a historic site: It has old private residences abutting the vestiges of its medieval fortress in the keep gardens, and Romanesque churches like Notre Dame sur l’Eau.

    Auberge de la Mine Comfortable restaurant  A very good restaurant in its category

    le Gué-Plat F - 61450 La Ferrière-aux-Étangs
