The Herils farm (ferme-herils) is a property of more than 2 hectares whose first buildings go up with William the Conqueror era. The farm is probably an old transformed castle which would have given its name to a commune attached to Maisons in 1830. Of this old castle, there remain some elements like the monumental porch, of the loopholes in the tower of the habitation, "pigeon" in one of the dependences, a bakery. This lodging is located in an old barn and kept any sound charms with its beams and its walls out of apparent stones. It includes at ground floor : - a kitchen - a dining room – lounge with fireplace - a WC At first floor : - 2 bedrooms (1 bed 140, 2 beds 90). Every bedroom arranges a wall cupboard closet. - Bathroom with shower and WC Outside : - Large garden of 1000m2 approximately (not closed) with garden furniture and barbecue. Ideally placed between Bayeux (4 km) and Port en Bessin (4 km), you will be able at the same time to appreciate the architecture of Bessin and to benefit from the animated beaches of the area (fishing, Sand yacht, ...). Also located at the accesses of many ways of country and peaceful roads favorable to the pedestrian excursions and cyclists. FH2020

La Grange was a lovely place to stay. The house is set in peaceful countryside, but within a short drive of Bayeux. The Normandy landing beaches and Caen are also close by. Anne-Francoise was very welcoming and we had everything we needed for a comfortable visit.
If you are going to be needing a place to stay anywhere near this area, take the opportunity to stay here! It's peaceful, beautiful, comfortable, and plenty of room for 4 people. You will need pantry items if you're going to cook at the house, but all dishes and cooking utensils are there. A++
Very nice comfortable and quiet country Gite perfectly located for visiting the D-Day beaches and museums, as well as Bayeux. We had an excellent stay!
Parfait pour visiter la région, au calme et proche des commerces et activités.
Propriétaire sympathique.

Endroit chaleureux et sympathique
Nous avons bien apprécié le gîte qui est spacieux et très propre. Nous y avons passé 4 jours en octobre. Le foyer de bois très fonctionnel a été un plus à notre séjour . L'environnement extérieur est bien entretenu . Les propriétaires sont accueillants et sympathiques.
Je recommanderais ce gite sans hésiter.

Saubere, gut ausgestattete Ferienwohnung.
Sehr ruhige Lage in interessanter Umgebung, freundlich zugewandte Vermieter. Große Rasenfläche vor dem Haus. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und konnten viele Fahrradausflüge von dort aus machen.

Bel endroit bien situé
Gîte très calme, très fonctionnel, très propre, bien équipée avec tout le confort mais un Wifi très instable.
Les propriétaires sont aimables et toujours disponibles. On nous a même offert une bouteille de cidre à l’arrivée. Beaucoup de guides sur les plages du débarquement et l’ensemble de la région.
Un endroit exceptionnel pour les amateurs de l’histoire de la Seconde Guerre : Pointe du Hoc, les plages du débarquement, Caen, Bayeux…
Aussi de charmants sites : Château Fontaine-Henry, Cerisy, la magnifique tapisserie de Bayeux…
À recommander sans réserve.
