Cheese dairies

The Authentic Normandy countryside, with its rolling hedged farmland or “bocage”, is traditional breeding country, mainly for dairy cows. It is thanks to them that Normandy’s most famous cheeses are made: Camembert, Pont-l’Évêque and Livarot. Smelly and tasty, they are the pride of our farmers and cheesemakers.
