Thank you for everything while we were with you. The house was perfect - gave us a great base to be together. It was exactly what I imagined it to be... we all loved the time there. Be sure to add me to your list of recommendations should anyone want additional information!
Meeting you was a plus...!!
Bill and I think we'd like to come back someday....probably not for a few years but we will be back!

Thanks again for the incredible, informative and outstanding hospitality you so graciously gave. Beyond the fact that you contributed so much to the atmosphere, the Mirabelle was charming and a great place to be able to 'feel' the aura of the area. Grandcamp Maisey could not have been more quaint and appealing for our expectations. The early morning trips of our grand kids to the local boulangerie for baguettes will forever be a pleasant memory in our minds.

We had such a great time at your house! Thank you for being so nice and going out of your way to get us a baby cot & high chair. This house is in a central location for visiting and in a tranquil & relaxing sea side village. Everything you need!

Couldn't be better

Lucille & Bill Westminster, Massachusetts, USA
Review Submitted: June 11, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
This property is an attached, two-story home away from home. It's perfectly clean with good furniture. The decor is lovely - country Normandy. We ate breakfast in every day & cooked dinner four of the nights we were there so used the kitchen quite a lot. We had everything we needed. The house is an easy drive to the village and ocean as well as to the major roads through northern Normandy. The owner was there to greet us and walk us through. She's cheerful, friendly, helpful, and not intrusive. If we return to Normandy this is where we'll stay. Definitely recommended!
