Le Hangar de Maxime, Guest house in former stables of Bocquencé stud farm in La Ferté-en-Ouche, France.
Le Hangar de Maxime is a guest house built inside renovated stables from a former stud farm in La Ferté-en-Ouche. The rooms come with modern comforts including a heated swimming pool, spa, and wood-burning stove for evening warmth.
The buildings came from a stud farm that once raised horses and was later turned into a guest accommodation. The original stable structure remains visible, giving visitors a sense of how rural life worked on this property long ago.
The place keeps its connection to Norman horse-farming heritage by using the old stable buildings as living spaces. Visitors feel the rural way of life that has shaped this land for generations as they move through the grounds.
The grounds can be explored on foot or by vehicle, depending on what suits you best during your stay. Rooms are available throughout the year, so planning ahead helps secure your preferred dates, especially during warmer months.
In springtime, guests can watch foal births happening right from their bedroom windows as new life arrives on the property. The experience is mixed with daily contact with the ponies, goats, and ducks that roam freely across the grounds.
