Overview

La maison d'hôtes est un ancien bureau de poste attenant à l'Auberge du Croissant depuis le 16ème siècle. L'authenticité du lieu a été préservée ou restaurée pour raviver l'histoire que vous apprécierez également à travers le riche patrimoine architectural de la ville, le cadre bucolique de la rivière Varenne et ses ruelles fleuries qui la bordent, les nombreuses expositions de photos autour de l'ancien pressoir, la vie du théâtre / cinéma, de nombreux commerces de proximité. La maison située au cœur de la ville fait face à l'église fondée par le moine guérisseur irlandais Saint-Saen, auquel une dévotion est encore pratiquée dans une chapelle dédiée figurant sur une butte gallo-romaine toute proche. Pour les sports, un prestigieux parcours de golf situé sur 80ha est à quelques minutes, tout comme l'un des centres équestres. Plusieurs sentiers de randonnée traversent la ville ; celui de Compostelle emprunté par les Anglais, celui du Merveilleux qui mène à Maucomble, celui des Dames Blanches vers les Ventes St-Rémy. Les chambres personnalisées, meublées avec soin et chaleureuses, offrent une vue sur le jardin et le centre équestre, ainsi que sur la forêt d'Eawy, l'une des plus majestueuses hêtraies d'Europe qui abrite les vestiges d'un site V1 de la 2nde guerre mondiale entièrement préservé. Le petit-déjeuner, le brunch ou le dîner sont servis dans l'une des salles historiques ou dans le jardin sous le kiosque, selon la saison. Vous pourrez également lire ou vous détendre dans le grand salon de la bibliothèque orné de boiseries d'époque, près d'une cheminée en hiver ou en soirée à toute saison Pour compléter votre séjour, des séances de remise en forme et de relaxation (chromothérapie sonore, méditation, massages avec ondes scalaires) peuvent être programmées. Pour profiter de votre séjour, plusieurs parcs et jardins remarquables offrent des visites très proches de Saint-Saëns : Jardin de sculptures de Bois-Guilbert, Jardin botanique Agapanthe, Parc du château de Bois-Héroult, Jardin des Valérianes, Jardin botanique du Mesnil, Jardin du crapaud à 3 pattes, Jardin d'Angélique... Le splendide château de Mesnières en Bray (15ème siècle) peut être découvert par l'avenue verte Paris-Londres ou autrement par les chemins de campagne. Les plages de la Côte d'Albâtre (Dieppe, Pourville sur mer, Varengeville sur mer) sont à seulement 30 minutes, tout comme la ville de Rouen, capitale de la Normandie.

Pleasant Stop Over with an Engaging Hostess

We needed a stopover on our way south after getting off Eurostar and this proved a good location. Located in a quiet town, the hostess is an interesting and friendly person. The style is a bit more like a B&B than a hotel, and I think had we arrived on a different day we might have eaten elsewhere, even given the generous hospitality of our hostess. There is a pleasant garden to enjoy that is hidden as the accommodation is behind the mainroad.

Extraordinary, beautiful place in a quiet little hamlet.

Extraordinary place, beautiful interiors, like in a French romantic film. Beautiful garden where we could spend the evening (everything else in the little hamlet was closed, as it was a Monday evening). Our lovely hostess, Sophie, told us many interesting stories about life in the village. Great, tasty and healthy breakfast.

Sophie our host was charming and we very much enjoyed our time chatting with her. Sophie cooked us an evening meal that

We were looking for a ‘classic’ French style experience. Sophie’s house was exceptional in this regard. Situated at the centre of a lovely and quiet village

A lovely night in a great location, with a fantastic host

The host was wonderful and the place was quirky. The breakfast was lovely. The room was in the middle of town near to bars and restaurants and very accessible in a beautiful village.

A perfect overnight stay within a beautiful 17th century house with a fabulous host

Perfect for our overnight stop en route from Ile de Re to Calais. A warm welcome from Sophie and her pets despite the last minute nature of our booking. The house is quirky and full of original features. Our room was large with two armchairs to enjoy the view over the walled garden and the rooftops. The bed was unbelievably comfortable with fresh white cotton sheets. We slept like a log. The bathroom was well equipped with plentiful hot water for our showers. Breakfast, hand made by Sophie, was delicious and healthy. She is a fascinating and very hospitable host who was happy to chat but wasn’t intrusive. All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wouldn’t hesitate to return. A little gem. Thank you, Sophie.

A wonderful stay with great food

Sophie was a wonderful, warm host. She offered to make us dinner and had no problem catering for a vegan. The house is beautiful and we enjoyed playing with the animals.

A pleasant and relaxing stay in lovely surroundings and with an excellent host.

This is a very comfortable and attractive b&b home. The host Sophie is very friendly and attentive, speaks brilliant English and made our stay very enjoyable. We had a delicious home cooked dinner and a very good breakfast. We also enjoyed the company of her dog and cats.

Very friendly host, lovely house full of character.

Sophie was extremely friendly and couldn't be more welcoming to us and our little dog. She provided a delicious vegan breakfast in the morning. The bedroom was lovely and spacious and the bed very comfortable. The shower was also excellent and it was well situated in the town.
