“Modern well-equipped gite in a great peaceful location”
This is a modern gite in a perfect location in a quiet village between the Normandy beaches and Bayeux. There are plenty of good restaurants, boulangeries and supermarkets close by. The gite is comfortable and very well equipped with great views across open farmland. The owners live next door and were charming hosts. We will definitely stay here again on our next visit to Normandy.

“Lovely house in a village on a dairy farm!”
Nice quiet rural location, very comfortable, spacious and well equipped house, quite new. Had everything we needed. Had its own private parking which was great. The host Sonia was lovely and very responsive, and there was some beer, cider and apple juice in the fridge which was a nice touch. Easy to enter. Perfect place to stay, 5 min from Arromanches and 10 min from Bayeux.

“We had an enjoyable stay.”
Good location, close to Arromanches, the D-Day beaches and Bayeux. We were given a code for the gate and the door was unlocked inside. Lovely property, pleasant views to the West at sunset from the terrace.
