LYONS-LA-FORET — 35 MILES
Lyons-la-Forêt is a village of about 800 residents set in a beech forest, the Forêt de Lyons. The village is built around the remains of the castle where Henry I of England died. In town is the Hostellerie de la Licorne, an inn which dates back to 1610.
The architecture is typical for Normandy, with houses built in half-timbered, pink brick or tinted cob (clay and straw) style. In the center of town is the 18th century covered market, and throughout you will find tearooms, little restaurants, and antiques shops.
