Bienvenue au Tortillard is a 19th century Picardy-style farmhouse with the guest-rooms independent from the main farmhouse. It has been restored to a very high quality, conserving all its rustic charm. It lies on the outskirts of the village of Rang du Fliers, surrounded by fields and the waters of the River Fliers. It is ideally situated for exploring "La Vallée de l'Authie and La Baie de Somme".

This superb hide away, in the middle of the countryside, yet only 3 miles from the beach, consists of four individually themed bedrooms each with its own television and en-suite bath or shower. All rooms are centrally heated, and the generous breakfast is served in the spacious living room in front of a roaring open fire. There is also a living room, tea and coffee facilities, library, games.

Outside are an off-road parking area, and a garden with farm animals to enchant young and old a like. It is suitable for wheelchair users.

Breakfast

To give you a good start to your day, a generous breakfast is served in the dining room, in front of open log fire. The menu includes home-made bread, cake,  rhubarb and apple, plum and blackberry jam, with viennoiserie and poppy-seed, sesame and traditional country bread cooked for you,  and new-laid egg.

This room has a horsey feel and has double doors opening onto the terrace with views over the garden, park and river. The shower room is fully tiled, fitted with a thermostatic instant hot water system and has separate WC.

About the location

Bienvenue au Tortillard is ideally situated close to sea and countryside, it is on the outskirts of the little town of Rang du Fliers, where it is surrounded by woods and fields and looks over the river 'Fliers', after which the town is named.

Next to the house lies the start of the 'Boucles du Marais' footpath (6 miles-2 hours), which follows the river 'Fliers' to Les Tadornes fishing lake. Keen bird watchers will spot herons, marsh harriers, Colvert's duck, snipe and moorhen. 500 yards from the house is the start of a cycle track leading to the mouth of the Authie and the port of Madelon, as well as Merlimont village, where you can join the track leading to Etaples and Boulogne sur Mer.
