If you're looking for a house in the Normandy area, STOP LOOKING and BOOK THIS PROPERTY NOW. We (American family of 4 adults/3 kids) drove down from Belgium to visit Normandy/WWII related sites. This beautiful renovated barn turned cottage is a perfect stay for any family. Property has a large kitchen, great living room with a fire place, and 3 large bedrooms upstairs. There is a nice patio and garden out back, plus a pasture in the back with a playground for kids. The house is all electric, including heating in each room. I was concerned about paying for electric (first time paying for electric in an airB&B), but was much less than expected.
The location was perfect if you're looking to stay close to WWII sites but also not hurting your wallet. We were 15 minutes from Overload Museum, 15 minutes from Omaha, 20 minutes from Point Du Hoc, and 30 minutes to Saint-Mere-Eglise. A few miles to the South is a village that has a SuperU grocery store and gas station. Very close to Bayeux if you're wanting to access a larger town.
Last but not least, the PERFECT PROPERTY MANAGERS!! The welcoming hospitality of Florence and Dominique was like none other. Lovely French couple that speaks perfect English (my French is not the greatest), very accommodating. I can not say enough great things about them. They answered every question we had prior to staying there. They stay across from the house on site and made it easy if we needed anything, but also respected our privacy while staying there. Florence had a list of supermarkets, restaurants, and other things on the bulletin board available for anyone staying there. She provided plenty of ideas and local things going on for us to do. Dominique was great at always keeping wood available and stocked, we had a fire every night. They're attention to detail in providing a stress-free stay was the best we've ever had.
Dominique and Florence, my family and I want to personally thank you for you're generous hospitality during our stay. You're the reason we continuously choose to book with VRBO/Booking for all family trips.
If you're looking for an affordable stay in the Normandy region, BOOK THIS PROPERTY! You will not regret or be disappointed. Great house, great location, and the BEST France has to offer on a personal level.
