About this property

Gite Essentiel

THE DOMAINE DE LA DAUVINERIE

Located between the countryside, the city (3 minutes from Coutances) and the sea (10 minutes from the seaside resort of Agon-Coutainville), you will discover at the end of a large tree-lined alley the Domaine de la Dauvinerie, an old farmhouse made of local stone in the heart of a 4-hectare wooded park, where roe deer, herons, wild ducks and moorhens venture on the pond.
Transformed today into a charming cottage, it retains the authenticity of the raw place, in stone, with modern comfort.

A haven of tranquillity combining the beauty and serenity of the landscape, the estate will offer you a warm and family welcome, a setting with delicate and generous colours, ideal for all styles of events or for a green break.

Located in Gratot, the cottage "Essentiel" includes a living room with a living room equipped with a flat-screen TV, as well as a fully equipped open kitchen, 1 toilet.
Upstairs, the landing leads to 2 bedrooms, a bathroom with shower, and 1 separate toilet. A terrace with garden furniture and barbecue.
This cottage is designed to accommodate 4 people, but has an additional bed that can increase its accommodation capacity to 6 people (1 sofa bed).
It offers free WiFi and private parking.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Wohlfühlhaus und nette Gastgeber

Die Gastgeber sind sehr nett. Das Haus ist geschmackvoll eingerichtet, alles nötige ist vorhanden. Es liegt ruhig und idyllisch, Courtance und damit der Supermarkt sind aber mit dem Auto innerhalb weniger Minuten erreichbar. Die Betten sind sehr bequem. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und würden beim nächsten Mal wieder hier übernachten.

Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt.

Relativ abgelegen in einem schönen Hofgelände befindet sich die sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtete Wohnung. Alles ist funktional und die Küche ist gut ausgestattet. Die Vermieter sind sehr freundlich und wohnen im Haupthaus. In wenigen Hundert Metern Entfernung befindet sich das eindrucksvolle Schloß Gratot, das sicherlich einen Besuch wert ist. Wir können diese Unterkunft ohne Einschränkung empfehlen. Man sollte allerdings ein Fahrzeug zur Verfügung haben, die nächsten Einkaufsmöglichkeiten / Supermarkt sind etwas weiter entfernt.
