A Special Note: January 2025

Dear friends and guests, we apologize that Yvetot has been unavailable recently, but our daughter has been living with us since July 2024 while she deals with a serious health challenge. We miss seeing you all and know you miss staying in our lovely cottage, so we have just begun making dates available for guests when possible. Please check back here to see our calendar, or email us if you would like to be notified when future dates become available: mikebin@horizoncable.com. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Enjoy a cup of tea snuggled up in one of the bench seats. Cook a gourmet meal in the fully-appointed kitchen. Feel the warmth from the wood-burning stove and the radiant-heated floors. Appreciate the views of Mount Vision from the private deck. Listen to the sound of the birds as you soak in the hot tub. Relax in the peace and tranquility.

This and much more is Yvetot Guest House. Designed and built from largely recycled materials in 2003 by our architect son to accommodate visits from our ever-growing family, it is truly a magical place which we love to share. It is ideal for couples, family vacations and anyone seeking a quiet retreat, but is not suitable for parties or group gatherings.

Yvetot is a mile up from the town of Inverness and close to ocean-side and bay-side beaches. Hiking trails abound from just up the street and you are minutes away from the spectacular beauty of Point Reyes National Seashore.

The house, which is 800 square feet, comfortably sleeps six people: two in the master bedroom and four in the 'children's room' - two twin beds and two twin futons with sleeping bags in the loft.

Yvetot has Wifi, plenty of DVD's, CD's to play on the Bose music system (into which you can plug your phone/tablet), books, games and toys to entertain everyone.

Come and have a wonderful time!
