| Information specific to the town/village |
|
Le Ferre is a small village. It has a patisserie and bar/tabac called the St Christoph. The new parton here does a very cheap menu at just 5euros to take away - incredible value for just one course of good French home cooking. In the village by the mairie you can play tennis for free. There is a large antique shop too.
3km away is the lively market town of St James in Normandy. Market day is Monday. There are 3 good restaurants and a fabulous pizzeria that does take aways. There is a doctors surgery and large supermarket, plenty of walks and a famous American WW2 cemetary
