Beautiful gite
By Jerry and Ursula on 20-Jul-2024St Augustine, Germany Thank you for your hospitality in your beautiful gite! You took care for us so nicely we really felt at home, helped us getting repaired our broken car. Fish and chips from your friends were really fantastic. We really enjoyed the quiet place here and the beautiful Normandy. As we don't speak French it was good to have an English speaking host. Looking forward to see you again. Jerry and Ursula.

By Frederica Marani on 23-Aug-2023In the silence that restores Roger and Mary, discreet and hospitable people who offered us the opportunity to enjoy these places, of which we appreciated the silence that surrounds them, the large open and green spaces of the surrounding countryside and the small villages with their characteristic features, but especially the silence.

By John E on 24-Jun-2023John E Sat, Jun 17 – Sat, Jun 24, 2023 Vrbo 5/5 Excellent holiday in Normandy Lovely upstairs apartment, comfortable and very well equipped, with good parking and outside seating in a separate area of garden. Close to Hambye which is a pleasant village, with one of the best boulangerie / patisseries we''ve ever come across. Lots of local interest. We recommend the Abbaye de Hambye close by and Coutances and the Mont St Michel not too long drives.
