French Hideaway

Dougal Bognor Regis, West Sussex
Review Submitted: May 31, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
The perfect getaway to hide from the crowds, at least in off-peak times. This rental is exceptionally clean and maintained. Facilities are very good combined with comfortable living.
A perfect location for anyone interested in boating as was in our case taking an ex-boating man along.
The property is ideal for the disabled being on the ground floor with easy parking directly outside. We had no problems with our disabled companion.
There are miles of coastline to explore with many local places to eat. For those who like to self cater the town has good shopping facilities and large supermarkets. We would revisit this rental without question.

A little piece of Paradise

boatgirl south staffs
Review Submitted: March 6, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2007
This apartment is ideal as a base for touring surrounding areas such as Mount St. Michel and Bayeaux or for just relaxing. After a busy day sightseeing you can lounge on the sofa and look out at the beautiful bobbing boats on the marina - the pink sky reflected in the water.
The nearby beaches are quiet and near to shops and bars if a picnic or lunch time drink is wanted.
Everything from a welcoming bottle of wine to tourist information is at the apartment. Along with cds and dvds and a playstation-(much appreciated by our children!!)
The owners provided us with maps and information before we even travelled there.
Bars, restaurants and take aways are on site. We found these to be quiet but served good food.
We booked a week but I could have stayed forever.

Our stay at Dives Sur Mer Calvados.

hojj Hertfordshire, England
Review Submitted: February 21, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2007
This is a new apartment in a new complex. It was very clean and well maintained. Within the complex are shops and restaurants which we used on several occations and found the staff to be very friendly. Our party consisted of my wife myself plus my daughter and grandaughter of 2 yrs. The beaches localy are vast and great for the children. For ourselves we visited a number of museums and sites dedicated to the Normandy landings. Our overal experiance was very good, unfortunately the weather during our stay was very wet and so prevented our little one taking full advantage of the beach.
