A little paradies

A little paradies with a beautiful garden. The flat was well equipped for us, nothing was missing and it was very spacious. We had a parking space right next to the house and were allowed to use the garden. The owners were very nice and were always available.

The hosts were very friendly and helpful. We felt immediately at home. Everything was clean, the kitchen was very well equipped. They have sent us a good explanation in advance on how we can get to the lodging. They also surprised us with many small attentions. There was a lot of good information and suggestions for walking tours and sightseeing near and far. We particularly appreciated the fact that we could buy from them the bus tickets to visit Rouen… We would choose this lovely place again. We spent a whole week and went visiting so many interesting monuments and landscapes.

Lovely stay in a lovely apartment in spite of the weather!!

We spent four comfortable days in the lovely self-contained apartment above Carol and Philip’s home. The two bedrooms were well appointed with plenty of hangars in the closets, heating that we were able to adjust ourselves on a couple very cool nights, and views onto their beautiful garden. The shower room was separate from the WC, a great convenience, and the front sitting room had a TV, books to borrow, and lots of information flyers about Normandy. The very well-equipped kitchen had a kettle, a toaster, a two-burner cook top, and a counter-top oven all of which we put to good use. A lovely welcome package greeted us with a bottle of wine, butter and milk, jam, and a loaf of bread. The apartment was well-located for our purposes, out in the country away from the noise of city living. We were grateful to have dedicated off-road parking when we returned in the evenings after a day of touring. We had some helpful and pleasant conversations with Carol and Philip who are very personable. We would highly recommend this property for your travels in Normandy.

We had the pleasure of staying for two weeks in Carol and Philipp’s cozy apartment and felt right at home. We received a warm welcome upon arrival, and throughout our stay, the hosts went out of their way to ensure we were comfortable, despite the intense heat. The apartment is located on the first floor and is accessible via an outdoor staircase. It is equipped with everything we needed—microwave, small oven, coffee maker, etc. The house is situated in a somewhat rural setting yet remains centrally located. Its architectural style is typical of the region; with its roof design, it even bears a slight resemblance to a Black Forest house :-) The Seine is just a short drive away. Duclair, a small town located right on the river, offers everything one might need: nice restaurants, a supermarket, a gas station, and a free car ferry across the Seine. The coast and its lovely seaside resorts can be reached within an hour, and the surrounding towns—such as Rouen and Lillebonne—are a treasure trove for culture enthusiasts. Many thanks for a wonderful holiday—even if it was scorching hot at times ;-)(translated by Google)

Schattig verblijf

Leuk verblijf bij aardige Engelse eigenaren. Het huisje doet erg Engels aan. Het is op de bovenverdieping, wat vermeld staat op de advertentie. Het ligt aan een doorgaande weg, waar je in het huisje niet heel veel last van hebt, maar om, van de oprit te komen wel lastig.

Alles Prima

Wir können diese Unterkunft sehr empfehlen. Die Gegend ist großartig. In ca. 60min Fahrtzeit mit dem Auto gibt es viele schöne Strände zwischen Le Havre und Dieppe zu erkunden, alte Schlösser, Klöster, Städte. Die Gastgeber sind so, wie man es sich wünscht. Hilfsbereit, herzlich und doch zurückhaltend bis man von ihnen etwas wissen möchte oder braucht. Nur die Kommunikation mit den Gastgebern wird von der Vermietungsplattform komplett unterbunden es war nur mit großer Mühe möglich eine Telefonnummer von den Gastgebern zu erhalten, da diese von der Plattform ständig unterdrückt wurde und auch das senden der eigenen Telefonnummer oder E-Mail-Adresse war nicht einfach möglich. Doch dafür können die Gastegber nichts. Wir empfehlen deshalb unbedingt vor der Anreise rechtzeitig die Kontaktdaten auszutauschen. Allerdings muss man dafür schon einiges an Phantasie entwickeln, damit man das Ziel erreichen kann. Wir werden deshalb diese Plattform nicht mehr nutzen.
