La Ferme de la Haute Crémonville
Rediscover the green fields of Normandy, admire the horses at the neighbouring stud farm, dream of country living: this authentic half-timbered farmhouse is so pretty that it will make even the most die-hard city-dweller want to retire to the countryside. Calves, cows, pigs and traditional culinary treats await – truffle ravioli with a wild mushroom cream sauce; caramelised fruit tarte fine; not to mention the beef cooked over a wood fire. No sooner have you left than you're longing to return to these tempting rustic-style dishes.

Located in Val-de-Reuil within a cluster of 11th-century buildings, La Ferme de la Haute Crémonville offers a bucolic and tranquil setting. Guests frequently praise the traditional Norman cuisine, highlighting high-quality, homemade dishes and intelligent revisions of classic recipes. The atmosphere is described as warm and welcoming, with generally efficient and kind service. However, some reviews note that the food can be heavy or difficult to digest, and service experiences vary, with occasional mentions of unfriendly staff or rigid reservation policies. While most visitors appreciate the authentic culinary experience, a minority criticize the value for money, citing high prices for dishes and significant markups on wine, alongside a limited wine list.
Ideal for travelers seeking a peaceful rural setting and authentic traditional Norman cuisine, though those sensitive to value for money should proceed with caution.
