Sport fishing at sea or in rivers, rare expeditions in FranceSport fishing for highly migratory fish, salmon, salmon trout, shad.

The memory of each catch will be imperishable as well as the pleasure of releasing these mythical fish that are the bearers of dreams! With or without professional fishing instructors and guides, nature escapades will delight young and old, 2 km from the property, 2 rivers marked by the confluence of the Sienne and the Doquette. Suitable for the reproduction of migratory fish, these two rivers full of fish will delight fishermen, feed the surrounding meadows and dot them with small ponds or temporary wetlands rich in rare plant species in the region. Salmonids and Migrants - Unique in France
The many rivers of Le Mancho (Sée, Sélune, Siena, Saire and Vire) are home to amphihaline migratory fish, i.e. fish that can move from fresh water to seawater and vice versa to complete their life cycle.

So, do you want to breathe the iodized air of the Channel? Walk with the bottlenose dolphins, the grey seals, emblematic, but wild "The Grail" Well, Flipper and his little friends "squat" along our coasts! . There are nearly 500 of them in the bay. They form the largest concentration of bottlenose dolphins in Europe. Their playground is the bay of Mont Saint-Michel! 550 km² or 3 times the size of Paris! These bottlenose dolphins find there a marine biodiversity full of fish to feed on, hence their sedentarization. "The luxury of a bed and breakfast is not the décor, but the soul you put into it."
