Enjoy the charm of the countryside 5 minutes from the sea, the landing beaches and the historic center of Bayeux. Restored in a typical Bessin farmhouse, this old farmhouse offers rustic and authentic charm. Spacious, it is an ideal setting for your family vacation. This house is independent. It is close to our home and another gîte. We have chosen to keep a country feel to this old farm. It is a comfortable, authentic house with a rustic character. It was therefore fitted out in this style with old family furniture, bought in the auction room or flea market. She disposes : -R-d-c: kitchen, living room, living room with armchairs and sofa, wc. -Floor 1: 3 bedrooms (1 double bed 140x200, 2 twin beds 1 pers 90x190, bunk beds), 3 shower rooms with wc. - Floor 2: 1 bedroom on the mezzanine with access to the miller's ladder (2 single beds 90x190).

This farm house is not a luxury house but comfortable. This is an old cider press room, part of a complex of buildings with main house and guest house to left and what appear to be stables that are now used as garage and storage for owner. All entries face the court yard. This is a very secure place with privacy.
There are 2 ensuite bathrooms and another bathroom accessible to all on the second floor. All 3 bathrooms have shower stalls with no bath tub. One will find an additional restroom with toilet and sink on the ground floor. Kitchen is small but it is located on a corner with large windows facing 2 direction where one can look out to left at a small court yard, with a large round table, available to guests and to the right a large public access court yard.

Comfortable and unique home in the Normandy countryside
We enjoyed our stay. Valerie and Phillippe were gracious and helpful, including calling several restaurants for us when we arrived late our first day. It's a beautiful setting in a rural area west of Port en Bessin.

Thank you so much for your lovely and thoughtful review! We're delighted that you enjoyed the comfort, charm, and layout of the house, as well as its peaceful location close to so many important historical sites.
It was a real pleasure to welcome you, and we truly appreciated your kindness.
Knowing that you rebooked just a few days after returning home is the greatest compliment we could receive.
We look forward to seeing you again for another stay in Normandy!
The house was very clean, spacious and beautifull! Its location was fantastic for visiting all the WWII Normandy landing beaches and museums, as well as Bayeux! Our host was communicative, kind and helpful during our stay! She even provided local information about closest stores and points of interest! We truly enjoyed our visit and highly recommend this home! Thank you!

Hi Megan,
Many thanks for your kindness.
Wishing you and your family all the best.
And Merry Christmas!
We had a wonderful stay. We would book the property again. Valerie and Phillipe were excellent hosts, and very lovely people. The property was immaculately clean and very spacious. The beds were comfortable and we had brilliants nights sleeps after very busy, tiring days visiting all the "Normandy Day Museums and beaches".One thing (that was all to do with your site) was that you said there was a DVD player and knowing we were completly out in the countryside we took some videos to watch in the evenings - it was a CD player. So no videos to watch. You also said there was a hot tub, there wasn't.
Hôtes très sympathique et gîte très agréable, bien placé. Je recommande

Au plaisir de vous revoir peut-être pour continuer la découverte de la Normandie !
Een heerlijke plek om Normandië te ontdekken. Bij lang binnenkort wordt het misschien wat muf, maar als geheel is het een heerlijke plek. Valerie en Philippe zijn aardige mensen.

It is a quick drive to Bayeux, which is a lovely town and well worth exploring. The drive to Omaha beach and the American cemetery is also quick and easy.
