The Chateau de Sully is situated a couple of miles north of the pretty and historic town of Bayeux and just off the road to Port en Bessin and Arromanches . The chateau stands in ample parkland , partly walled with lawns , flower beds and apple trees . The hotel rooms occupy the original , elegant chateau and the manor house a few metres away . Bedrooms are furnished in a mixture of 18th Century and contemporary style and are very comfortable . On the ground floor of the chateau is the spacious restaurant , with one Michelin star , a bar and a lounge , ideal for a rest after a day ’ s sightseeing or for taking an aperitif . A great bonus are the leisure facilities at the hotel , with the indoor pool and gym being located in the Manor House and a tennis court in the grounds , but well away from where you would sit out at the rear of the restaurant and bar . Breakfasts are comprised of homemade bread and viennoiseries with local apple juice , apple compote , yoghurt and fruit . The Chateau de Sully manages to combine chateau-ambience with cosiness .
