Gautier holiday home, a real living experience:
The unique traditional French atmosphere of the house, which is in the family for three generations, can been experienced from the outset. That is why Mrs. Monique, who gives the guests their keys and takes care of the house, says.” The holidaymakers are always happily surprised, because they have got a lot more than they ever expected”. What she means of course is that the genuine atmosphere of the house goes above and beyond the mere description and photos. The house has a soul, which one only discovers upon entry. The guests are also pleasantly surprised during their stay when they see all of the things that are provided for them, almost like for good friends. “And afterwards they always remark that they were very happy in the house” says Mrs. Monique. That’s why guests always come back to our house and Dragey, where they had such a relaxing and enjoyable time last year.
Culture and gastronomy all together!:
Did you know that Mont Saint Michel is one of the most important sightseeing spots in France? Some insider advice for the summer season, drive by car to Mont Saint Michel late in the evening, so that you arrive there at 20:00 and experience the unforgettable “Son et Lumiere” (Sound and light performance) in the monastery. The later you come, the better chance you have of enjoying this performance alone. Couple your visit to Mont Saint Michel with a special gastronomic experience: Order an omelette in the “Mere Poulard” restaurant (world famous) down in the old town. A better tasting omelette does not exist! Another cultural destination of choice is the romantic abbey of La Lucerne, 6 miles from the house. After leaving the abbey you can buy many homemade specialties (jams etc) for your breakfast in Dragey.
