About this property
Gite in Secluded Setting
This charming studio-style gite is situated next to a 16th century cottage in a secluded, rural location yet only 5 minutes from the nearest village of Sainte-Mere-Eglise. There is a good-sized living/dining area with open-plan kitchen overlooking the garden, Beautiful sandy beaches within 8 miles including D-Day landing beaches. The National Parks offer bird-watching, fishing and other rural pursuits. This is an ideal spot from which to explore the delights of Normandy: Bayeux, Coutances, St-Lo, Sainte-Marie-du-Mont and Barfleur are just some of the places within easy reach. There are thriving local markets on most days of the week.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Sharon Woodall-Quinby
We love the slower pace and attitude to life in rural France and enjoy sharing that with our guests.
Why they chose this property
It was love at first sight even though the cottage was crumbling and the garden a jumble of weeds and rubble. The garden's starting to take shape as trees and shrubs begin to mature and every year brings a new plan together. I'm hoping for a wildlife pond this year - if only I can decide where to place it!
What makes this property unique
We're close to everything yet tucked away in a little corner of heaven, a perfect spot to enjoy the best of both worlds.
