Holiday Rentals in Pré-en-Pail

Location fantastic and a lovely couple very friendly and helpful I would say excellent as we have booked to stay also on the way back. : )

The evening meal and breakfast were both excellent - simple French cuisine using local farm products but prepared and served in typical french fashion. Jacky is a very nice host

Everything, first time for a long time we felt truly relaxed (even with kids)

Beautiful house, charming hosts and delicious food

The location is stunning. The hosts are very welcoming, with prompt messaging if needed. Breakfast was fresh and good. Hot water whenever needed. Kettle, sink in mini kitchen was useful.

Beds were comfortable and black out blinds useful. Kids liked the space to play outside.

I can't believe 'Les Mottes' is being offered as a serious option for accommodation and would advise anyone against booking it. We needed somewhere to crash and break up a long drive north and booked at the last minute, we will be more careful in the future! We ended up walking out and driving another hour to a hotel in Caen. Booking was straight forward and a few emails from the owners seemed positive, but that's where the good news ends. Finding the place was a mission, it's properly in the middle of nowhere, not in itself a bad thing, but even when we did find it there were no signs to suggest we had arrived in the right place. It's accessed down a narrow single track drive, with broken lights down the side - alarm bells were starting to ring at this stage and I was glad we arrived in the daylight. At the end of the track we were greeted with what looked like a rubbish tip / scrap yard (still didn't know we were in the right place and starting to hope we weren't), a broken down car with bits hanging off, a rotting caravan, various piles of junk and rubbish scattered amongst the overgrown weeds in front of a house that was in serious need of some care. The owner and his dog eventually came to greet us on the doorstep with a grunt and a blank look - still weren't absolutely convinced we were in the right place. At this point the kids were refusing to get out of the car! A brief chat and unfortunately we were in the right place, so we stepped over more piles of junk (an old car battery on the doorstep) and into the chaos and filth of the house to be shown to our room. The dog followed us upstairs and immediately jumped on the beds. The alarm bells were ringing louder now and a pile of dusty, broken gym equipment just outside the room didn't add to the comfort levels.

a beautifully restored country house.

An excellent stay lovely host beautiful location.
