Spacious and comfortable house with discreet and helpful host - great for Bayeux and WW2
Well situated in quiet location for Bayeux and the Normandy Beaches. Very comfortable stay for the two of us. Well equipped - only slight issue is the kitchen could do with a new kettle equipped with an on-off switch.

Home from home. Good central location for landing beaches
Lovely safe and clean property. Large open plan lounge, diner and kitchen perfect for family socialising. Away from the hustle and bustle but this is no problem as long as you have a car. Just a short drive from Bayeux which is a lovely town. Well equipped kitchen. Good power in shower. Only thing we missed was a bath for our young children but this was not a problem. Extra charge for bedding and cleaning could come as an unpleasant surprise if not expected. As long as you are aware of this upfront will not leave a bitter taste!

Great location and House
The house was very clean and comfortable. The surrounding area is beautiful and really captures the feel of the small towns throughout Normandy. The house was an easy drive to many D-Day tourist locations.

Quiet, beautiful retreat
An easy drive to Omaha beach and other sites, we chose this house to experience a little bit of country side as we toured through D Day sites. Most of our meals we ate out in Bayeux after our tours, but one night we did manage to plan an easy meal and cook in this large kitchen. You will be 20-25 min away from a grocery store. We very comfortably slept 4 adults, and enjoyed the living areas together. Beds were on the harder end of the scale, but we were so exhausted after our tours that I think we slept well regardless. One thing we did double check and prepare for weeks before our arrival was renting our linens and a cleaning fee—be aware of those extra costs when booking, they’re subtle in the text. Everything was very clean and water pressure was excellent. A lovely country experience.
