Loved our stay here

We loved our stay here. We were a family group. The house was clean and comfortable and had room for the 14 of us. There were plenty of dishes. The owners were very nice and helpful. The kids loved the trampoline. The house is in a beautiful and peaceful setting and a nice location for visiting normandy.

We had a lovely stay at the house .Perfect for a family holiday with young children. Lots of space and room to run and play . Location was peaceful within easy reach of an excellent beach . House is fully equipped for family BBQ’s , Rooms are spacious with ample beds for larger family parties . Having two showrooms on different floors worked well with several family units . Hosts were friendly and accommodating. Omaha beach is Ideal for young children with the vast expanse of sand and little pools left by the tide. Bayeux is a beautiful town lots of interesting shops only a 10 minute drive away . Supermarkets were again within a 10 minute drive . If you are looking for a quiet relaxing rural holiday with all the amenities within a short driving distance this is an ideal location .

Urlaub in der Normandie

Die Beschreibung des Objekts trifft zu. Das Haus ist angenehm groß und bietet genügend Platz. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet. Das Haus befindet sich in der Natur. Der einzige Nachteil - alle Fahrten zum Einkaufen oder auch zum Bäcker müssen / sollten mit dem Auto zurückgelegt werden, da es doch Recht weite Strecken sind.

Prachtig huis in een prachtige omgeving.

Na een annulering op de avond voor ons vertrek naar Gite De L'aure in Trevieres door de eigenaar van het huis, zagen we dit huis. Gelukkig reageerde de eigenaar rond 23.00 en kon onze trip naar Normandië toch door gaan. Bij aankomst waren wij zeer verrast over de ruimte die het huis ons bood. Het was erg netjes en we werden zeer vriendelijk ontvangen. Wat een leuke mevrouw. Alles werd goed uitgelegd. De schappen en de kippen waren ook leuk. Elke dag de kippen voeren was een leuke activiteit. Maya de hond van het huis was ook veel bij ons te vinden. Ze kreeg ook van alles van ons. Wat een lief beestje. Het huis is van alle gemakken voorzien. Natuurlijk zijn we nog gaan kijken naar het geannuleerde huis en wat hebben we geluk gehad dat we dat niet zaten! Zo zie je maar weer: geluk bij een ongeluk! Er zaten natuurlijk andere mensen in dus de annulering vanwege Covid was een leugen van de eigenaar. Dit huis is zeker een aanrader voor grotere groepen.

Beautiful house

We really enjoyed our stay here. It’s a very quirky and big house with a lovely outside area. There’s a trampoline for children and a few sheep and cows in the field next to the garden. The location is very rural but it only takes around a 10-20 minute drive to the D day beaches and sites. The home owner is a lovely lady and very helpful. Thank you !

Bonsoir gîte très spacieux et propre mais concernant la facture d'électricité pour deux nuit sachant que la journée nous étions pas là, et prenant 3 douches sachant que nous étions 13 dont 10 nageurs qui se douchaient à la piscine. Heureusement car si les enfants auraient pris tous leurs douches bonjour la facture pour deux jours j'imagine même pas une semaine C'est dommage car très beau gite Cordialement
