Travel Note
We are grateful to have family and friends joining us from near and far! Our wedding will take place in the countryside of Normandy, which can be tricky to travel to if you are coming from abroad. Please see below for our suggestions on how best to get to the Manoir and where to stay.
Flight
For our guests traveling to Normandy from abroad, we recommend flying into one of the major international Paris airports (Charles de Gaulle or Orly) and traveling to Normandy from there.
Train
There is small train station at Lison, approximately 10km from the Manoir. If you are coming by train from Paris, there are many departures from Paris Saint-Lazare to Caen (about a 2hr journey). From Caen, you can take a local train to Lison (a 1hr journey).
Rental Car
For our guests traveling from abroad: we recommend renting a car if you plan to explore Normandy before or after our wedding. All the major rental car companies can be found at the Paris airports. The drive from Charles de Gaulle airport to the Manoir is about 3hrs. Be prepared for lots of roundabouts! :)
House Or Rental
There is a limited amount of accommodation onsite at the Manoir. This accommodation is available from 2pm on Wednesday July 9 until 2pm on Thursday July 10. If you plan to party late into the night with us and attend brunch at the Manoir the next morning, this is a great option! There are eight chalet-style cottages with 8 to 13 beds, located just a few steps from the main house. If you are interested in staying at one of the chalets or want to know more, please contact Mary or Matthieu as soon as possible. Preference will be given to groups. 30€/person.
