Patricia & Laurent
Our house was built in 1750 and was a farm house until 2000. During the second World War, it was at the crossing between two temporary airfields of the US Air Force, the A2 and A4 ALGs. We have bought the house in 2012 and started the activity at Christmas 2012.
We are both passionate about the history of WW2. We also share a common love of decoration and car boot sales.
The closest site to the house is La Pointe du Hoc, at 7.5km. Omaha Beach is 10km away. We are located near the N13, so the access to all WW2 sites and museums is easy.
