Our Animals: A Cherished Part of Life on the Estate
At La Ferme de L’Oudon, our animals are an integral part of the estate’s history and identity. They have always been part of life here, reflecting the rural heritage of the Pays d’Auge and contributing to the authentic character of the estate.
They live peacefully on the estate and are very much part of its charm and authentic character. We care deeply about our animals, and their well-being is our priority. They are not part of organised visits or activities — you will simply come across them naturally as you stroll through the grounds.
As you explore the estate, you may encounter our rabbits, goats, ducks or chickens, some of which occasionally roam freely. Please respect their space and allow them to move around at their own pace. Dogs are very welcome but must be kept on a lead when near the animals.
You are welcome to offer them suitable treats: apples or carrots for the ponies, goats and rabbits, a small amount of bread for the chickens, while Carlos, our Vietnamese pot-bellied pig, enjoys all kinds of fruit and vegetables!
By following these simple guidelines, you will help us protect the well-being of our animals and preserve the peaceful atmosphere that makes La Ferme de L’Oudon so special.
