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

In Coquainvilliers, in the Pré d'Auge valley, the Pontif manor combines pinkish brick and limestone across a main building constructed in two stages, from the late 15th century to the 17th century. The entrance is marked by two gatehouse pavilions flanked by cylindrical stair turrets, once guarded by a moat. The gardens, redesigned in 1985 by landscape architect François Goffinet, arrange water features, flowerbeds and statues into green rooms around the old structure.
