When you book a gite through a website you wonder if it will live up to the photos and descriptions. We needn't have worried - from the warm welcome we received from the lovely owners to the property itself, everything surpassed our expectations - it was just magical!
Beautiful stone farmhouse set in a large property with lots of room for children to play. Our grandson loved feeding the chickens and ducks. A quiet and peaceful setting. The grounds were beautifully maintained. Our hosts were very friendly and helpful. The spa room was perfect to relax and very well apppointed. Beds were comfortable and kitchen well equipped. We loved our stay here. It was a great base for visits to the D-day landing beaches and Bayeux within an easy drive.
Such a shame that now we have visited all the places we wanted to in Normandy that we won't be returning very soon because it would be a total pleasure to spend another week at Le Domaine du Manoir! The owners were excellent & explained & helped with any questions we had. Maybe the only downside were the outside stairs when it rained but the (independent) acommodation has everything that 2 mature couples needed for luxury & comfort during our stay. Cannot recommend this place enough. absolutely brilliant!
Our family loved staying here. The bedrooms in the cottage are large and we all enjoyed the downstairs jacuzzi at the end of each day. There is plenty of outside space to play football, cricket, frizbee, boules and fly a kite. with lots of outdoor seating and lounging areas when the weather is kind.
Although it feels you are miles away from everywhere, Bayeux is only 10 mins drive up the road and there are plenty of sandy beaches and fishing ports within 30 mins. It is a great place to unwind.
Colette and her family are very welcoming and were only there at weekends so the rest of the time we had the place to ourselves. We will book here again when we next come to this part of Normandy.
We really loved staying at this property. Our only problem was that we wished we had more time to stay there--a long weekend wasn't nearly enough time! The house is in a beautiful setting a little outside of Bayeux. Our GPS got us there no problem. You do need a car to stay there. It took maybe 10 minutes to drive to Bayeux, and the landlords provided directions to the local supermarkets. Our children (ages 7 & 4) didn't want to leave the property, there were so many things for them to do in the walled courtyard. There are two bedrooms and a kitchen/dining area upstairs (and two toilets, a full bathroom and a wash machine), as well as an additional bedroom, bathroom, bar and jacuzzi on the ground floor.
Colette doesn't speak much English (and we don't know much French), but it was not a problem at all. All of our email correspondence was in English, and she had a paper written in English that explained how everything worked on the property. Her daughter also talked to us to make sure everything was perfect for our stay.
It worked great for our group of 6 (4 adults and 2 kids). The place was clean and there were plenty of towels and bedding.
We took in a Normandy Battlefield tour, a visit to Mont St Michel (1.5 hours away) and saw the Bayeux Tapestry (a must if you stop in Bayeux).
If you want a charming place to stay and have a vehicle to use, this place is outstanding!
This is a fabulous property set in wonderfully kept tranquil grounds. The property itself was equipped to a very high standard with everything you need for a relaxing stay. The jacuzzi was perfect for relaxing after a day out and about in the beautiful Normandy countryside. We met Colette and her husband who were charming and very thorough showing us all we needed to know on arrival. We spent a super week and will definitely book again next year for another visit to wonderful Normandy. We highly recommend this spotless spacious property and very much look forward to a return visit. Theresa, Gareth and family, Hertfordshire, UK
