Our holiday at the Cottage, La Drutiere

Cazza69 Ipswich, Suffolk, England
Review Submitted: October 18, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We had a wonderful stay in the Cottage. It provided a welcoming and safe environment for our young children, having loads of space on two levels. It was very comfortable, with everything we needed for a relaxing holiday and full of the French character we craved! The gardens were fantastic for a game of hide and seek, sunbathing or a dip in the pool, reading in a shady corner or running around, letting off steam! Views of the surrounding fields and hills, incredible sunsets and starry skies made for an idyllic holiday setting.
There was plenty to do in the immediate area too. Favourite places were Alencon, the lakes and play areas of La Ferte Mace and Sille le Guillaume, le Haras du Pin and the chateau at Carrouges. We really had the best of both worlds - a relaxing haven at La Drutiere and plenty to discover in and around Normandy. The girls loved it. We loved it. Definitely one to revisit!

Idyllic Normandy

staroft Faversham, Kent, UK.
Review Submitted: January 27, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2008
We stayed here last August. Despite the weather we had a wonderful holiday. The hosts were welcoming & friendly and we wanted for nothing during our stay.

On the not so summery days we lit the real log fire and were happy to chill but were equally keen to get into the pool on the warmer days.

The area is peacful & perfect for sightseing and the local town has just enough to temp you to to live off wine, baguettes & cheese. Well, when in Rome!

We can especially recommend a visit to the Chateau Vendeuvre about 40 minutes away.

Highly recommended.

A tardis! wonderful cottage

Aug 08 guests Greenwich
Review Submitted: January 20, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2008
I stayed here for a week in August last year the cottage was delightful large lounge , big open fire, good size sociable kitchen with large dining area. Very clean and had everything we could possibly need . It was located on a beautiful spot. The hosts were delightful ,friendly but not too intrusive just right. My parents who haven't travelled much loved France and this area particularly we all had wished that we had booked a extra week.The surronding towns and locations were gorgeous and easy access to all the tourist /historical areas without to much driving. The drive from Calais was easy. Would definitely recommend and would love to go back very chilled week!
