Château d’Audrieu
Bayeux
This family-run hotel, in the heart of historic Bayeux, is located on a quiet, tree-lined square by the Aure River. Inside the small, marble entrance, there's an intimate bar, a library and a fireplace, giving the Hotel Villa Lara a chic and relaxed atmosphere which is complemented by exceptional service.
Opened in 2012, this purpose-built hotel was thoughtfully designed with spacious rooms and all modern conveniences. It offers a contemporary take on classical elegance with replica furniture, plush fabrics and subtle lighting in both guest rooms and public spaces.
Opposite the hotel, a small bridge leads into town where you'll find the 11th-century Bayeux Cathedral, the renowned Bayeux Tapestry and original medieval half-timbered homes.
