SAFARI LODGES IN NORMANDY

No need to travel thousands of miles to spend a night on the plains of the African savannah you can enjoy the experience just across the channel in Normandy. Situated only an hours drive from the ferry port of Caen, 2 hours from Paris, and less then 3 hours from Calais in the heart of the Pays D’Auge region of Normandy, France, this is a great location for a short break with a difference or for adding a most unusual en-route 3 night stay to or from your main holiday.

You will stay in a modern wooden bungalow, raised on stilts, situated on the edge of an award winning zoological park. The Safari Lodges sleep up to 6 and comprise of a spacious lounge with wicker seating and sofa bed. TV, Kitchenette with 2 burner hob, microwave oven/grill and fridge. Shower room and, to add to your safari experience, a double bedroom complete with mosquito net! A wooden staircase leads past African style wall hangings to an open mezzanine with 2 single beds. Each lodge is tastefully decorated to mirror the wildlife theme and you will appreciate the attention to detail from the eco-friendly solar panels for hot water to the themed crockery. Large glass doors opening onto your veranda give a panoramic view to the safari park or maybe a spectacular sunset.

The 26 lodge village overlooks a small valley and lake where Indian Rhinoceros, Antelopes, and Siamong Gibbons live only a few metres away. Small inoffensive animals such as Wallaby and Deer roam freely around the lodges and the lake is home to many exotic birds such as Pelicans, Cranes and Ibis. From your private terrace you will enjoy the privilege of observing exceptional sights and sounds anytime of day (or night) as the animals feed and play. This is a place of calm in harmony with nature.

A pathway around the lodges leads to the reception area where friendly English speaking staff will help you get the most from your stay with advice on the Safari Park and places of interest, including local produce and markets. You can even enjoy a continental breakfast on the reception terrace. A short stroll further along the pathway and you arrive at the “La Pagode” restaurant. Weather permiting you could dine al-fresco on its large terrace, overlooking the animals in the valley below. Beyond the restaurant is the entrance to the park itself where 95 species, approximately 500 animals, live in 120 acres of natural surroundings. Take the safari train or walk around the park and expect to see lions, tigers, giraffes, bears, monkeys, kangaroos, zebras and panthers; the list is endless. Not to be missed is the “contact” area where young and old alike can feed and play with animals such as the miniature mountain goats.

If you stay a little longer in this unique atmosphere you will find other places of interests close by. The safari village is located on the outskirts of Lisieux with its white Byzantine basilica of Ste Therese, (one of the largest churches built anywhere in the world in the 20th century). The resorts of Deaville, Trouville and Honfleur are within 20 miles or you can enjoy the beautiful countryside of the Pays d’Auge region with its pretty houses, “cider route” and “cheese villages” of Camembert, Livarot and Pont l’Eveque.

Remember, however you spend your day, your complementary pass allows you to re-visit the park at any time and then enjoy the unique experience of staying somewhere surrounded by nature and the magical world of wildlife.
