Fantastic value, highly recommended

Lovely location, clean and well maintained, owners did a very good meet and greet, ensuring that we were made welcome they gave clear instructions as to where and how everything worked even providing advice to the best local restaurants which I must say turned out to be better than any other dining experience I've had whilst in France having been quite a few times previously, so no mean feat. Cycling was excellent with a couple of routes provided by the owners, roads and weather were perfect even though out of season, good bike storage and washing/airing facilities for drying your kit. All in all, very clean (wish I could have the same cleaner at home) very comfortable and very spacious. Cannot recommend this property highly enough, multi functional whether for a family holiday or a group of friends, will definitely be returning. :-)

Good Family Accommodation

There were 14 of us plus dog in our family group, ages ranged from 8 weeks to 70 years and the house suited us all with a large comfortable sitting room and great dining area that sat us all. The furnishings are comfortable, but not precious so we could relax with children about. Equipment is comprehensive with all you need, except one or two fans would have been welcome on one very hot night. Large outdoor area with two meadows and small garden. Fencing is two wires and no gate on the drive, so not fully secure for young children or dogs. Good outdoor furniture, but no loungers. A lot of trees so not easy to find sunny spots early morning and evenings but we did enjoy eating most of meals at the large outdoor tables. Our favourite beach was Le Petit Kairon, near Granville, about 40 minutes drive. Good walks at Abbaye de Hambye. Good walking for the dog in the forest at St. Sever. Food at Cafe de Gare in Percy was great. We were most impressed with the French health service when the baby had to spend two and a half days in hospital in St. Lo with a, thankfully mild, dose of Viral Meningitis. Booking the house and ferry were made easy by the prompt and friendly advice from Jackie. We were met on arrival by the caretaker with everything clean and in good order. Three sets of keys, so sensible! Definitely a house to be considered for large family holidays.

Hi Tony, Thank you for your positive and helpful review and so glad that everything worked out okay for the baby, and I agree the French Health Service is fantastic.Best wishes Jackie

Fabulous stay

We had a great time in this very spacious, well equipped and wonderful house. The house has everything you could wish for. It is very clean, has great beds, a spacious kitchen, two living area’s, bikes, and is well equipped for over 10 persons. It even has Google home. We had a great time and went to Mont St. Michel and the landing beaching of WWII. The communication with Jackie was quick and clear. We would love to come back to see the rest of the area. Thank you

Nous avons trouvé une maison très fonctionnelle accueillante et confortable.pour 12 personnes de tout âges nous nous sommes sentis comme à la maison. La literie au top. Les propriétaires nous avaient laisser un petit panier de bienvenue fort apprécié. A proximité un magasin ouvert jusqu'à minuit...Nous avons pu visiter le Mont st michel a 50mn et découvert à 1h30 st Malo avec ses remparts ses plages une journée superbe. Les échanges mails avec le propriétaire étaient rapides, les instructions/ informations données étaient claires , complètes et toujours très aimable arrangeant et bienveillants.Nous avons passé un excellent séjour. merci Jackie

Gîte agréable

Nous étions 6 couples et avons passé un excellent weekend dans ce gîte. Grand salon très agréable. Les chambres sont très spacieuses et la literie très bonne. Nous avons juste une remarque négative sur la précision de l'adresse. Nous avons cherché le gite plus d'1h30 car le village de la Cannière compte 90 maisons. Il nous a été impossible de le trouver sans l'aide d'un habitant qui a bien voulu nous y conduire à 22h30 !

La maison du chêne août 2019

Idéalement située sur La région Normande, cette maison est agréable. Elle est spacieuse, nous y avons séjourné à 9 personnes. Un extérieur généreux est disponible avec grill et terrasse meublée dans la verdure. L’environnement est calme. 4 vélos sont à dispositions pour des balades. Le lave-linge et sèche linge ont été appréciés. Les points moins agréables ont été signalés au propriétaire : Panier de bienvenu mentionné mais absent Entretien des sanitaires laissant à désirer Vaisselle sale Frigo avec nourriture avarié Nettoyage d’entretien laissant à désirer Absence de wifi pendant les 3 premiers jours Pas de chaînes françaises sur la tv Cheminée disponible mais sans bois Personne de contact parlant anglais uniquement

Merci pour vos commentaires, ils nous aideront à faire en sorte que la maison soit conforme aux normes exigées par nos clients . Je suis déçu que vous ayez eu des problèmes avec la maison. Malheureusement, nous avons eu un problème avec notre fournisseur de télécommunications, qui fournit également les chaînes de télévision françaises nous avons essayé de régler ce problème le plus vite possible, et nous vous avons proposé d'autres options, telles qu'un Chromecast, mais cela a été refusé et nous vous avons remboursé £50,00 pour la Wi Fi qui ne fonctionnait pas. En août, le temps est généralement clément. Par conséquent, nous ne laissons pas de bûches normalement, la plupart des gens n’utilisent pas la cheminée à cette période de l’année. La maison dispose du chauffage central complet si les soirées sont plus fraîches. J'ai aussi informé notre entreprise de nettoyage de retirer tout aliment du réfrigérateur, même s'il n'était pas ouvert et dans les délais. Je suis confus à propos du commentaire concernant le français, nous parlons l'anglais mais nous parlons couramment le français. Nous avions envoyé le pack d’informations mis à jour et cela ne mentionne pas le panier de bienvenue, bien que nous laissions du thé, du café, du sucre et du lait pour tous nos invités et une cuisine très bien fournie. Cordialement Jackie

Maison du Chene—a little piece of heaven

From the start, Jackie was an excellent host. The registration thru VRBO was seamless, including when we needed to add an extra day. The online description is accurate, but the place is so much more. We had everything we needed and plenty of space for 11 of us to not trip over each other. There was a problem with the WiFi a few days before our arrival, and Jackie scrambled to have it repaired before our arrival. The replacement was a little slow and only worked on the ground floor, but was not a problem. Having a washer and dryer was a real bonus and very much appreciated. We were primarily in Normandy to commemorate the 75th Anniversary of D-Day. The landing beaches and the towns where our father fought were an hour away, but St Lo and Le Mont St Michel were close, so it worked out. The town of Percy had everything we thought we needed and then some. I would definitely stay with Jackie again.

maison accueillante et chaleureuse

Maison de vacances familiale spacieuse et conviviale. Nous nous sommes retrouvés en famille pour les vacances de Noël dans une maison spacieuse et très bien décorée (sapins lumineux, bougeoirs, décorations de Noël, table préparée...). Les lits étaient faits, le linge de maison sentait bon, et un panier repas nous attendait ! Nous avons donc profité pleinement des uns et des autres sans contraintes matérielles. Séjour très plaisant.

About the host

Hosted by Jackie Mold

Host profile image

Two family's husband and wife Jackie and Tim and our long-term friend Phil. All three of us live in London, and Tim and Phil work together. The three of us bought the house together in 2007, after many great family holidays in the area, we finally decided to chip in all our resources and buy together. The house is over three hundred years and had to be fully restored, so while we wanted to keep the character, we wanted a clean modern feel inside.
With Love and a lot of hard work, we got there. We now let the house out for any weeks we are not using it and are happy to have the same guest returning over and over.

Why they chose this property

The house is in a semi rural location with a 15-minute walk to the nearest village. Perfect area for walking the dogs, or if you are into your history you have the fascinating D/Day beaches and of course the amazing Mont St Michele, all within an hours drive.

What makes this property unique

A large house with 2 Master bedrooms, 4 further double rooms, and 5 bathrooms
