A cosy family house near the beach

The house was adorable and large enough. The big garden and the terrace near the kitchen were marvellous; from morning till evening we enjoyed the sunny weather! The kitchen and bathroom were a little outdated, but we were okay with it. The lady who “ keeps” the house was very friendly and welcoming. We had a wonderful stay, thank you so much!

Fantastic stay

We had a fantastic stay in this house in Le Crotoy. It had everything you need for a great holiday. We really enjoyed the outside space especially the decking. The beds were really comfy and there was plenty of space for the four of us (parents with 2 adult children). Lots of English books and games - which we took advantage of - playing poker on the deck in the evening! It is very close to the shops, beach and has plenty of restaurants to choose from. And if you catch the sea at high tide you can enjoy a swim too. Which was most welcome as I think we had the hottest week ever! The only suggestion I have is to provide a second front door key - as we were on holiday with our grown up kids they didn’t necessarily want to get up early and join us on the beach for a breakfast croissant - and we didn’t want to go out and leave the door unlocked with them still in bed or leave them locked in. Thank you Judy for a very enjoyable and relaxing holiday in a lovely home - I would definitely recommend.

Half term break

The house is very near the beach & a short walk into the town centre, where there are several bakeries & fishmongers & a butcher and plenty of restaurants. The house has a simple lay out with a lovely veranda to have meals outside. The garden is sheltered & fully enclosed. The stairs to the bedrooms are a little steep & narrow, so wouldn’t suit someone with mobility restrictions. The galley kitchen is well equipped with a great filter coffee machine. It would have been great if one cupboard could have been left empty for our food; we had to leave lots on the work surface which reduced our space. The house sleeps 8 so it was good that there is a wine fridge in addition to the under counter fridge. A previous review had suggested a spare/second door key. Agree that this is a good idea. Be aware that all the roads nearby do not have free parking for significant parts of the year. The car space in the drive was a little tight for our medium sized car, but we did manage to park the car.

It does change occasionally. Thank you again for your review. Best wishes, Judy

Cute little house perfect between village and beach

We had a wonderful time in the little 'blue house' which was perfect for us and our eleven year old twins. The house is well equipped and perfectly situated just outside the centre of the village and the very close by beach (3 min walk). The balcony provides a great place for breakfast and a good shady outdoor living during the afternoon. The garden is surprising big for a house in the village and well sheltered with good privacy. The village itself is very friendly, relaxed enough to have the kids stroll around on their own. Plenty of restaurants for excellent seafood and other tasty meals. The beach is really tidy, free - clean! - bathrooms available. The most impressive and amazing feature is tidal outlet of the Somme. With 10m difference between high and low tide the salt marsh and mudflats are totally exposed during low tide and provide many km2 for fantastic walks. During high tide swimming, especially for the kids is save and entertaining. Nothing for surfers, though ;-) We loved it, nothing at all to complain. Even the trip from the Netherlands to Le Crotoy on the first day of the summer holidays was without any problems since it is out of any major big crowd holiday destination. 14.7. - 28.7.2018

A charming prperty close to the centre of Le Crotoy and the beach

Although we didn't meet the owner, Judy, or the cleaner we received a warm welcome in the form of a gift of biscuits and a bottle of wine which was very kind. Judy had provided us before arrival with detailed instructions on how to reach the property and useful information about the property and the surrounding area. The property was very bright and airy (and cool in what turned out to be a very hot week). It is ideally situated only being a short walk from the beach and the coast footpath into the town centre (about 10 minutes walk to the main area with restaurants/bars). The balcony was great for breakfast in the morning and evening drinks overlooking the large enclosed garden with rose bushes. Downstairs, there is a covered patio area should it be raining but warm enough to sit outside. Judy has provided lots of books, games & DVDs should the weather not be good. Bedrooms were roomy enough. There is a lack of wardrobes but plenty of drawers to make up for that. The kitchen was fully stocked and functional. The property has off road parking which is very convenient although I don't think parking in the road off-season would be a problem. This is an ideal location to explore the Picardy coast - Mers-Les-Bains with its art nouveau style properties is a must see. We recommend the following places: Le Houdel, Crecy-en-Ponthieu (and the forest), Regnieres-Ecluse. Marquenterre Park & Valloires Abbey. You won't be stuck for ideas about what to do as Judy has provided lots of leaflets on the surrounding area to assist you in choosing days out. As for Le Crotoy itself it's a small bustling centre with restaurants and bars around the Place Jeanne d'Arc. We recommend Le Commerce, Aux Trois Jean (very close to the property overlooking the bay) and the seafood platter at La Bonne Franquette II. If you are looking to explore the Picardy coast you could not find a better base to explore it from. Thank you Judy.

Thank you very much for your kind review. I am glad that you enjoyed the house and Le Crotoy and also got out and visited the surrounding area. There is certainly lots to do there, especially in the summer. Apologies for lack of wardrobes but there are lots of hooks on doors for hanging clothes and it means that the bedrooms are more spacious and plenty of drawers as well, as you say. Thank you and I hope to hear from you again. Best wishes, Judy

About the host

Hosted by Judy Hammond

Host profile image
Hello,
I am a primary school teacher and I live in London. We bought the house when my children were very small. They are now 33, 30 and 23. We bought it because it was easy to get to from London and because it had the huge sandy beach which the children played on, dug holes in, made sandcastles on and learned to ride their bikes on. We have been coming here for 29 years and I am still not tired of the place. It continues to be refreshing and a treat to come here.

Why they chose this property

The Baie de Somme is a beautiful large river estuary with a huge sandy beach. It is perfect for walking or strolling along at any time of the day and it has especially spectacular sunsets. It faces south and so gets sun all day, 'La seule plage du nord qui face au sud", the only northern beach which faces south, as their tourist advertising says. It has long been the inspiration for artists and several live and work there now. I find the combination of the soft yellows, greys and blues of the sand, sea and huge skies immensely calming and restful and a lovely refreshing break from living in a crowded city. It is also very relaxing not to need to use a car. There is everything you need in the village and whilst there are interesting places to go to in a car, it would be easy to spend a week relaxing in the house and garden and walking on the beach. When the children were small, their favourite activity was to play on the beach.

What makes this property unique

Apart from the beautiful Baie de Somme, one of the main benefits is how easy it is to get to from the UK. It is a very easy hour and a half drive from Calais on the A16 motorway, which is not often very busy and 15 minutes from exit 24. Despite it being so near, it is still very french and there are lots of summer events in the village itself and nearby such as food and wine markets, music festivals and Bastille Day celebrations. There are also many brocantes or rederies over the summer, like our car boot sales or yard sales. Lots of opportunities to buy charming french items if you have a good eye.
