The stay started with a warm welcome from the hosts who made you feel like family rather than guests! The house was very authentically french. The food was fabulous served in the large farm kitchen with other guests for company and wine included.

The evening meal was OK.

The terrace

The lady is very nice, good breakfast

Everything was perfect! Nicky has put so much thought into everything.

We arrived in driving rain from the Caen ferry and were delighted to be welcomed by our host Angela (also known as Sue) who made sure we had everything we needed for a relaxing stay including warm rooms and a generous welcome basket of goodies to settle us in. She is the perfect host - there if you need anything, but not intrusive. Nothing is too much trouble. The gite is as it appears in the photos with a downstairs well equipped kitchen and upstairs a cosy bedroom, sitting room and shower room. Everything was spotlessly clean, the bed was extremely comfortable with excellent quality linens and there was a plentiful supply of hot water for the shower. The WiFi signal is excellent. The provision of upstairs and downstairs kettles and mugs was greatly appreciated, for that all important early morning cup of tea! The outside seating area was a great place to enjoy breakfast when the sun came out for us. We stayed for 10 days and found it a great place to relax and really unwind. There are excellent walks locally and some lovely towns and villages in under an hour's drive. The famous attractions (Mont St Michel, D-day landing beaches etc) are within about a 90 min drive. The local is very rural and the only noises at night are natural ones. We really couldn't have asked for anything more. We would love to come back. The gite is about 5 min by car from the nearest village for the basics and about 15 min from St Hilaire for the full range of supermarkets, shops, some excellent restaurants (try L'Ardoise opposite the church), a Wednesday market and a tourist office.

Bunnys, ducks, cows, chickens, Lustig, the huge dog. The kitchenware was phenomenal quality. Location - nature, walks, farm animals. The hosts are very nice and communicative, we managed to chat even without a common language. Complimentary apple juice and blackberry jam. Proper cotton bedding. No plastic sheets.

Easy to find. Very comfortable. All the facilities I needed.
