Green park laid out on old fortifications, offering lawns, mature trees and a relaxed stroll beside the castle.
Normandy tripe slowly simmered with cider, Calvados and vegetables. A long-standing regional speciality linked with nearby Caen and traditional Sunday cooking.
Soft-ripened Normandy cheese with a washed rind and rich, earthy flavour. It is one of the area’s classic farmhouse cheeses and a staple on local cheese boards.

Refined dining focused on seasonal French cooking with a polished but approachable atmosphere, suitable for a higher-end meal in Caen.
Traditional Norman brasserie known for seafood, regional dishes and a lively central setting near the marina and historic centre.
Well-known crêperie in the Vaugueux area serving savoury galettes, sweet crêpes and cider in a relaxed, old-town atmosphere.
Moderate for France: hotels and dining are generally a little cheaper than Paris, while local buses and everyday cafés remain fairly reasonable for visitors.
Service is usually included. Round up or leave 5-10% for very good restaurant service; round up taxi fares and leave small change in cafés.
