A 13th century medieval fortified farm which has now been transformed into a hotel, it offers stays of exceptional charm, in a setting charged with history.

The main gate of the hotel, in cut stone, dates from the 17th century and the crenellated battlements symbolize the lord's domain that the Ferme de la Rançonnière became from the 15th century. In 1463, the Duke of Normandy gave the Ferme de la Rançonnière and the lands surrounding it as a present to the Lord of la Rançonnière, in order to protect local farmers.

Over the centuries, Normandy was often coveted and the Ferme built a subterranean passage leading to the chateau de Creuilly and to Fontaine Henry, to ensure a supply line in case of siege.
The second World War turned Normandy into a battleground and La Rançonnière and it's domain became an airfield and a supply and ammunition post.

Acquired by the family of Isabelle Sileghem, La Rançonnière was initially a private home. One day, a couple visiting Normandy asked for hospitality because their car had a breakdown. That is how La Rançonnière became a guesthouse and later a charming private hotel.
