Our stay at La Ruellenier Farmhouse
Submitted: January 6, 2011
Stayed: June 2007
My husband and Grandchildren have stayed at Berts Place for the last 3 summers and intend to go again this summer, the Panoramic views of the lake and the Golf course beyond are stunning, we walked the lake perimeter every day, sometimes in the morning before breakfast and sometimes in the evening, before dinner.
The kids love the place and we can watch them play from the comfort of the patio, sat there with a nice bottle of French wine taking in the vista, we traveled into nearby Vire for shopping and restaurants and Market day is on mondays in the back streets of Vire, acres of stalls selling everything you could think of and more, Albert is a great host and cannot do enough for you, if you need anything just ask Bert, the gite is well kitted out with all the luxury stuff you need when on Holiday and Sky TV to keep up with events back home, the bedrooms are very comfortable although a couple of Drawer units wouldn't be out of place in the bedrooms. you must after visiting the area take home a bottle of the local Calvados Cider scrumptious!!. The locals are friendly but tend to keep to themselves, however if you speak a little French they tend to open up more. I believe Albert is now selling up and whilst I wish him all the luck with a sale I still hope we can get another couple of summers at Berts place before he sells.
