Really lovely.
This property is really great. The pictures don’t show how spacious it actually is. It was super clean, comfortable and well equipped. The farm is beautiful, with a lovely view, and it was fun to visit the cows. It’s very quiet and relaxing. The farm itself is so clean, it’s just a beautiful spot. Easy check in, well located for D-Day touring. Karine is welcoming. We wanted to extend our stay.

Normandy Cottage
Was hard to find as the location on VRBO did not correctly locate the house, but the owner met us and helped us find the right location. Super clean small apartment on a working dairy farm. Quiet farm location, but close to highway and Utah Beach, Museums, etc. Would recommend the property.

Lovely Rural Setting - Great base for Exploring
Part of an impressive set of farm buildings, this lovely gite has good quality equipment and comfortable beds. It looks out onto the impressive courtyard of a working farm. The overall setting is rural and very beautiful, set on a quiet lane, mid-way between Formigny & Trevieres. It provides an excellent base for exploring the charming historic town of Bayeux, and the stunning Normandy beaches which are only minutes away by car. Lots of interesting history, wildlife and amazing scenery. After long ways out sight-seeing, the gite was a welcome, peaceful haven to return to. Our host was welcoming and very helpful, with a detailed knowledge of what to see and do in the area. We loved staying here and hope to return one day. Mark, Jane & Dan

Normandy in the country
Peaceful rural setting not far from the beaches of Normandy. Even though tucked away on a rural road, access to the highway was easy and quick and Bayeux was less than 20 minutes. Very nice quarters. tastefully decorated, all accouterments furnished including access to washer, dryer, and bicycles. Roomy with plenty of space for four. Karine was most hospitable, responded quickly to inquiries, and helped with suggestions for shopping and meals. Good internet connection and for those who do not speak French, one can log into Netflix on the tv. Would heartily recommend and will stay again if the opportunity returns.

Quiet, picturesque property owned by a gracious couple. Great location for Normandy beaches.
We enjoyed our stay in a beautiful, two bedroom apartment with modern conveniences. It is located on an ancient farm, where the ambiance is calm and peaceful. The owners live onsite and are very helpful. They were very helpful and took care of whatever we needed. We highly recommend their place. WWII battle site, Omaha Beach, is not far away, and it is easily accessible. People in the local villages were very receptive and friendly.

Pefectly located and well equiped, modern conversion of a historic building.
Perfectly situated for a tour of Bayeux and the Normandy beaches. Well equipped apartment in a beautifully restored historic stables and riding house. The host was welcoming and on hand if anything is needed. Clean and cosy, we couldn't have hoped for a better stay.
