Crockery, glassware, cutlery and cooking utensils are all stored in white contemporary kitchen cupboards and drawers. Tea-towels are provided.

The bright blue front door of La Buissonnière opens on to the large tiled floor of a light,airy and homely beamed lounge and adjoining open plan kitchen/diner. The very comfortable 3 seater sofa and 2 armchairs have plenty of cushions, and the accompanying side tables, 48 inch widescreen television complete with Freesat and a dvd player all help to achieve that holiday chill-out feeling. The feature fireplace with electric heating makes a cosy focal point to the room, and lighting can be either bright from the central lighting or subdued from various lamps placed around the lounge.

Our comfortable double room looks out on to the gite's private sun-decked rear garden which is bounded by the sheep paddock, and the twin bedroom is situated to the front of the property looking out to two old bay trees in the large walled lawn. Both rooms have clothes hanging facilities, drawer storage, bedside tables, towel rails and thermostatically controlled electric radiators, and all bed linen and extra fleece blankets are provided.

The fully tiled wc and shower room contains a corner opening shower cubicle with a step up to the shower enclosure. The washbasin has a large mirror with mirror lighting and a shaver point, and a storage cabinet beneath the basin. A heated towel rail keeps the shower room cosily warm if needed.

There is a small private garden to the rear of the property for your sole use. The raised sundeck area is complete with 4 sunloungers, a large wooden table with parasol, 4 chairs and a barbecue for al fresco eating, and the small rear lawn can provide a little more shade if preferred. To the front of the property there is a large lawn where children can play and a variety of outdoor games including boules, football, badminton, cricket, swingball and frisbee are all provided. We would also be delighted to introduce you to our sheep in the nearby paddocks, our chickens, and our cat.

Dutch guests review 2023

By G. Schalij on 31-Aug-2023

Wij waren positief verrast door Normandië en La Buissonnière! Nog nooit geweest, en geen idee wat we zouden aantreffen. Het landschap is allesbehalve vlak, dus zeer geschikt voor uitdagende fietstochten. We hadden onze racefietsen mee. Het huisje is echt van alle gemakken voorzien. Goed en ergonomisch ingericht. Met wasmachine, wat heel prettig is. Het huisje ligt aan een doodlopende weg, dus rustig en veel privacy. Goede supermarkt op +/- 4 km. Mont St. Michel is goed aan te rijden, en een aanrader, tenzij je niet van drukte houdt. Kom vroeg! Ook Fougères en Laval zijn steden die je prima kunt bezoeken en die de moeite waard zijn. Supervriendelijke eigenaren, die in het andere deel van het huis wonen, maar waar je geen ‘last’ van hebt. Ze stonden open voor vragen en tips. Op het terrein wonen twee katten: Gromit en Wallace, die ons vooral erg aardig vonden als we gingen borrelen. Maar ze bleven lekker bij ons liggen, ook als ze niks kregen :-) Ook de kipjes kwamen af en toe vrolijk buurten. Kortom, we hebben een heerlijke week gehad op La Buissonnière. Dank voor de gastvrijheid!

Wij zijn afgelopen zomer 2 weken in deze schitterende gite geweest. Een schitterend huis met mooie natuur, beesten, rust ! Gewoon wow ! Heerlijk ontspannen in de rust en daarnaast een plek om vele mooie plekken te kunnen bezoeken. De eigenaren zijn super vriendelijk, hebben goede tips en adviezen en je ontvangt heerlijke eieren van de kippen op het erf! Een echte aanrader, wij komen hier graag nog een keer terug !!!

Lovely gite, clean, bright, well maintained and well equipped. The owners were very welcoming and helpful but were never intrusive. The gite is set in peaceful surroundings but within easy access to some restaurants, bars and local supermarkets. There are plenty of historic attractions within easy reach and attractive countryside to explore. I would have no hesitation in booking another holiday here.
