Le Clos de Gauville Normandy — France

The Longère

Half-timbering, old beams,
generous proportions

Newly restored, the longère keeps its exposed roof timbers, its herringbone half-timbering and its stone walls. It welcomes larger families and groups who value their independence.

The longère dining room: a farmhouse table beneath the beams, travertine floor
The living spaces

A long table beneath the rafters

On the ground floor, the dining room opens onto the sitting room in a single beamed space: travertine underfoot by the table, old parquet by the sofas, and daylight through small-paned French windows.

A long table for thinking things through

The longère's main room hosts off-sites and team retreats: a farmhouse table for around ten, light from the French windows, sofas for quiet reading — and the estate to clear heads between sessions.
