Hotels with Parking in Gandelain

Excellent breakfast served in my room. Very rural location but a short drive to St Denis which has a good bar. The room and bathroom are all on one level. Fantastic views and the pool looked very inviting.

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.

An excellent stay lovely host beautiful location.

Clean and convenient location

The cottage, situated a few meters from the owners villa, feels new and very modern. Everything you could wish for is there in terms of kitchen, TV etc. The cottage has two floors.. first floor kitchen, living area. Small but charming and well thought out. Top floor is bedroom. A bed on one side and sink/mirror on other side. One thing to note, as it may matter more to some than others: The toilet is on top floor.. opposite the bed. There is no door, only a wooden half-size swing-style saloon partition. So there is basically zero privacy when you are visiting the WC. It was fine for us but worth noting for anyone where this could be a sensitive issue.

Maryse’s petite Maison is beautifully presented. It’s a charming cottage decorated with character and offers great a place to relax In a wonderful peaceful environment. it’s a perfect place to stay a while. And the hostess is warm and welcoming.

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. : )
