Manoir de Cléray stands in Belfonds (Orne), in the Normandie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century, 17th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

The manoir de Cléray stands apart from the village of Belfonds, in the Orne department, surrounded by its moat and flanked by a dovecote and a detached pavilion. The current building, dating from the 16th century, replaced a medieval castle that once served as the seat of a substantial barony. The complex - main house, wings, tower and outbuildings - illustrates the fortified rural architecture typical of the Perche region.
