About The Manor

History, Charm & Character

The Story of a 16th-Century French Retreat

Tucked away in the peaceful Normandy countryside, Manoir de Founecrop is a striking example of 16th-century French architecture — a fortified manoir rich in history, character, and quiet grandeur.

​

Originally built during the Renaissance, the manor has stood for over 400 years. Its thick stone walls and elegant features have borne witness to centuries of French heritage. Once a rural stronghold, it has been lovingly preserved and sensitively restored to blend modern comfort with old-world charm — from exposed timber beams and stone fireplaces to the iconic stone tower with its sweeping staircase and ancient defensive firing points.

​

​Set within 7 acres of private parkland, the manoir feels secluded yet accessible, offering a rare sense of retreat without isolation. If you can’t face leaving your favourite equine friend at home a two acre fenced horse paddock is also included as the quiet lanes surrounding the house lend themselves to pleasurable hacks!

​

Mature trees, open lawns and stone flagged terraces surround the house, creating the perfect setting for long lunches, morning walks, or simply unwinding with a glass of wine under the stars.

​

​Inside, the Manor is designed to welcome families and friends in style. There are four generous bedrooms and an additional ‘day bed room’, four bathrooms, a large sitting room with an ancient stone chimney, a large country kitchen, a study, and ample space to relax, host, or simply enjoy the tranquillity of the setting. Every room has been thoughtfully furnished, with quality finishes and UK comforts — including appliances and sockets — to make your stay effortless.

​

​Whether you’re curling up by the log burning fire in winter, enjoying alfresco dining in the summer, or exploring the nearby beaches and historic villages, Manoir de Founecrop offers a timeless backdrop for unforgettable moments.

Enjoy all the benefits of a historic home in France - without the high costs of sole ownership.
