Le Four a Pain
(The Bakehouse)

Madeleine Rousseau
8 rue des Gruchets
27140 Saint Denis le Ferment
France

Gardening runs in the family of Madeleine Rousseau: her grand-father was the gardener of Monet's friend famous politician Clemenceau, and her father succeeded him on the same estate. Madeleine managed to compose a flourished setting to her beautiful 18th century house, which she patiently restored.

The norman style buildings rise in tiers on the hillside, in the village of Saint-Denis le Ferment, next to Gisors and its castle. Surroundings are calm and propose lovely walks or rides in the countryside.

In the main house - a former farm - a large bedroom with exposed beams can accomodate up to 4 people.

Le Four a Pain, guest house next to Gisors

In the middle of the garden, the former baker's oven was turned into a small but comfortable guest house equipped with kitchen facilities and dining area. This lovely bakehouse has also its own terrace.

Whatever the room you choose, you will have breakfast in Miss Rousseau's dining room and appreciate its elaborate decoration while you will taste her home-made jams or cake.

Closed car park in the estate

The guest house opens onto the orchard on one side, the yard full of flowers on the other side. Bedroom is on ground floor.

This half-timbered bakehouse was still in use a few dozens years ago. In the bedroom, you will see the oven where bread was baked weekly for the family members.
