Your stay at the Demeures & Châteaux La Ferme des Mares
The Ferme des Mares, built in 1650, stands majestically as a reminder of a bygone era. Like many Norman villages, it served as a church farm. Although the archives do not allow us to retrace its history with any precision, the anecdotes of the people of Saint-Germin still resonate. Proof that the collective memory is passed on through the local people. The town found itself at the heart of various conflicts due to its proximity to the English coast of Jersey. The priory of Saint-Germain-sur-Ay first fell to the British during the Hundred Years' War. The town was then placed under German occupation for four years between 1940 and 1944. Although the farm was away from the coastal confrontations, it nevertheless became a haven for these foreign soldiers. Integrating into the local community, they helped with the farm work and forged links through various shared activities. At the end of the war, the farm reverted to its main function, with different farmers sharing the premises. You can still see the remains of the old bakery. The estate then became a riding school in the 1990s, before falling into disrepair. It wasn't until 2007 that Mike and Sonia, the current owners, gave it a new lease of life. After two years of renovation work, the first guests entered the estate, which has been laid out in the traditional Norman architectural style.
Rooted in local stone, Demeures et Châteaux La Ferme des Mares embodies the timeless authenticity of Normandy. Witness the original blue windows overlooking the vast courtyard. Set amidst lush, windswept countryside, the rooms are a fine blend of French elegance and resolutely British touches. A nod to the roots of Mike, your host. Ten rooms, ten worlds: whether it's a traditional essence or a subtle design touch, each space is bathed in an elegant, modern atmosphere. It's a bit like crossing the threshold of an exceptional bed and breakfast. A place where you can recharge your batteries and feel truly at home. The classic rooms are a perfect blend of characterful furnishings and clean lines. For those looking for a unique experience, stay in the suite located in the former bakery on the ground floor. A gentle journey back in time, nostalgically revealing echoes of the farm's industrious past. Families in search of tranquillity are not left out. The family flat offers unrivalled privacy, comfort and space for special moments.
Enjoy natural flavours and local seasonal produce at the farm restaurant. Chef Mike is a culinary virtuoso, fusing English and French traditions to create a refined and daring traditional cuisine. When the weather is fine, take a break in the English garden for an aperitif. Reduce

Magnificent residence and very welcoming welcome
Beautiful place, tucked away. Very nice food and wine - and good value
The hotel is situated in a beautiful corner of the Cotentin, but what makes it outstanding is the cuisine. we had a three-night stay and all the dinners were remarkable for the quality of the food, the freshness of the vegetables and the care that had been taken by the staff. It is unassuming and unpretentious, but offers Michelin-quality cuisine.
Beautiful location and delicious, fresh food
A big thank you! Very pleasant and relaxing place. Perfect service. We really had a lovely enchanted break.
Very quiet hotel. For a good night's sleep. The cuisine is refined, but the menu is fixed. The armchairs in the restaurant are not comfortable for dining. Bulky and the seat is too low. Difficult to pass your legs with the small tables. Difficult staircase. The room is very clean and the staff helpful.
An excellent stay, very warm welcome, calm, charming place and what's more the food is delicious.
Very nice place, quiet, pretty house. Spacious room and comfortable bedding. Very warm welcome and excellent catering.
Very warm welcome. Very professional host following a booking problem: free upgrade. Perfect meal in a cozy atmosphere. Discovery of the harbor of Saint Germain.
Large room, very quiet, excellent meal and breakfast, this hotel is worth the detour...
Beautiful, quiet place with exceptional cuisine.
Excellent on all points, I recommend
Very nice place Beautiful and good food Warm welcome Unmissable stop We highly recommend
Beautiful place, warm welcome, a beautiful address.
everything would have been perfect if only the breakfast pastries had been up to the standard of the services offered during this stay!!!
I truly lovely Hotel with lovely staff and a delicious dinner
Large quantity of dust under the bed Our dog had the bitter experience Breakfast not replenished at the appropriate time Ghost staff Restaurant bill not checked and paid for a large bottle of wine instead of a “little girl”
A superb building, an excellent welcome and top-notch catering, what more could you ask for???
In all friendly understanding, I was disappointed to find neither kettle nor herbal tea in suite 1. It would be more "hygienic" to place the roll of toilet paper on the tiled shelf rather than on the handle of the toilet brush. .. The stairs are very steep for people with reduced mobility. It was a little cold the first night in the room. And also at the dining room table near the glass door
Perfect ! Passionate about their work and the desire to always improve and do well. Listening to the customer and satisfying their requests.
Very nice establishment with a high quality restaurant. Well done!!
beautiful place, very spacious room, quality meals. Perfect.
A remarkable setting, a splendid "very above average" room with its lounge area, refined and sophisticated cuisine of high quality, all at a very reasonable price. And I would add... the very good breakfast. It’s probably one of the best value for money I’ve come across at Logis-Hotels. I hope to be able to return there soon.
Lovely setting and great food.
At first glance a very attractive location. Also a nice garden with apple trees. Unfortunately there was a lack of staff, which meant that the dinner was very late. And the kitchen was not that bad. Too bad because with a little organization it could be a lot better. Just assume there are only two fixed menus: one regular, one vegetarian. Saves stress in the kitchen. What was now on the plate did not meet any standards. Fortunately, the service provided an extra cheese dessert to compensate.
Nothing to say a house as we like them, very nice hotel, welcoming and helpful hotelier who do everything to make the stay pleasant even for one night.
Very professional and friendly - a great cuisine and a memorable stay in a delightful and historic part of France. Thank you for a fabulous time.
A nice house well located, quiet.
