    Perfect for a Normandy Visit!
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveler
    • Double Room - Disability Access
    • Stayed 3 nights

    The only downside could be the location of room #2 and hearing everyone go up and down the stairs. Or going to their rooms. BUT...it really wasn't an issue as the guests turned in early and, by 9pm, all was well! I slept very soundly!

    I loved the location specifically. I am on a solo motorcycle trip through Europe and used this hotel for a multi-day stay while I toured the Normandy WWII sites. It was perfect and close to everything! I was originally going to stay in Caen but that would have required me to backtrack every day. The location is in a quiet location, the owner is great, the restaurant food was amazing! I was allowed to park my motorcycle inside the gated part of the hotel, which was much appreciated! I stayed in room #2 right off of the front desk. It is the disabled room, which I appreciated as the size of the bathroom was increased and convenient. I would definitely come back here!

    Room was good - clean and spacious, with an excellent bathroom. Breakfast was also good. Location is a little out of town. Evening meal in the restaurant was very good. We were cycling but the hotel was unable to accept and store our bags before 4.00pm.

    Nothing to dislike

    Room and facilities were very good. I was a initially little concered to read all the rules and regulations but our stay was very relaxed and staff very friendly coping well with my poor mastery of the French language. Lovely old building beautifully converted. We ate in the restaurant and thoroughly enjoyed our meal, whilst not cheap it was good value. Breakfast was included and offered a wide selection of pastries, cheeses, meats and other very nice breakfast fare.

    Very friendly hosts who went out of their way to make us feel welcome . Our room was clean and comfortable . The continental breakfast was plentiful , the evening meal menu had great variety and the food was delicious . The historic property had a large free parking area , and was ideally placed for touring the D-Day beaches by car which was the reason for our visit . We would strongly recommend this property to anyone visiting this part of Normandy .

    Cannot criticise any aspect of our stay.

    The Hotel is basically a Barn conversion and all the better for it. The stonework and its enviroment is warm and inviting. Rather than modern, sterile - stereotypical. We felt immediatly at home there. The building complex is very ancient - the clue is in the name-I'm guessing possible 400 years old and based on its location would surely have suffered in WW2. Its location was perfect for our tour the Normandy beaches and visit the British memorial and 'The Giants' installation for the 80th anniversary of D-Day The resturant is also very good and clearly popular, supported by pre and post dinner drinks in the central courtyard. We would definatly use it again and highly recommend to other prospective travellers when visiting this spectacularly historic area.

    Rooms are a bit basic but definitely comfy enough.

    The host is exceptionally friendly and the property is very charming. It must have been an old farm that has been converted into an hotel. The food is so good that we chose to have dinner at the restaurant attached to the hotel every evening. Location is excellent for people who would like to see the landing beaches of the Allies. Omaha beach and especially the Battery Longue sur Mer is just around teh corner.

    There is no bar so no possibility of a cool beer at the end of a long cycle ride.

    It is a lovely old building set in quiet countryside. The rooms are clean and bright. There is plenty of parking a a good area for bicycle storage. The proprietor was extremely helpful when we had a health problem. The restaurant is very good and good value.

    Inside staircase was single width and not suitable for carrying suitcases. The outside staircase was ok for leaving. The windows in the bedroom and bathroom were hinged at the bottom and only opened 150cm at the top and would not allow escape in the event of fire.

    Room was clean and airy. The restaurant was good.

    For the price, one could not ask for more. We really only were able to arrive, eat, sleep, leave so cannot comment on anything in greater detail

    We ate in the restaurant which appeared to fill up quite quite quickly, seems some were locals which is always a good indicator. First meal in France for this trip and it's content brought many happy memories flooding back, the quality of the food was excellent, The restaurant closes at 8;30 but I think all were served Our room whilst not being 'roomy' had cold A/C, comfy bed and a warm shower. Warm drink-making facility was appreciated.

    I didn't like the spiral staircase to the second floor. Difficult to climb and very hard with luggage. I didn't like that there was nowhere to meet with friends if it was raining. Hotel shuts after breakfast and doesn't open until around 6:00pm so can't even get a drink at the bar. The room we had was small but adequate.

    Evening meal was good, with friendly staff. Good wifi and free parking. Family run business, and they tried hard to accommodate. Even though their English wasn't good we managed to have a laugh with them. Breakfast was ok, a croissant and meat, bread, jam, yoghurt and fruit. No variation.

    No covered communal area for meeting with friends if the weather was bad. Garden limited in size and if the facility had a high guest occupancy (which it did) there was inadequate outside seating available.

    Breakfast of the typical continental type, but totally adequate in variety and quality.

    Nothing to dislike we found our stay to be most satisfactory and the owners were the perfect hosts.

    We had continental breakfast which was fresh every day which included Fruit Juice, Cereal, mixed meats, Fresh Fruit and plenty of fresh bread and Croissants. Drinks included Coffee and a selection of teas. Our host was available every morning during breakfast to keep the food topped up when needed.
