La Ville Josse
Beautiful old characterful building with lovely decor and grounds with a small lake. Ten minute drive to town and beaches at Saint Jacut de la mer. Surrounded by beautiful countryside and wildlife (deer, birds of prey ect). We loved our time staying at Ville Josse and would definitely stay again in the future. Very family friendly with so many things provided to make your stay comfortable.

Mooi antiek familie huis
Wij hebben een heerlijke week in dit grote antieke familie huis gehad. Hier moet je van houden. Bij het antiek hoort namelijk hier en daar een spin of vliegende mieren. En een muffe lucht. De omgeving is prachtig. Veel leuke strandjes en leuke plaatsen. En een grote supermarkt. Wel een auto nodig. De slaap kamers zijn groot. Met kleine kinderen is de master bedroom wel ver weg.in de gang. De keuken is heel goed voorzien van alles wat je nodig hebt. Alleen een betere prullenbak zou fijn zijn. Buiten kun je voor het huis lekker in de zon zitten en ontbijten. De tuin vraagt wat onderhoud. En hier en daar een boom weg zodat je in de avond ook wat langer zon hebt. The surprise was great when we arrived at La Ville Josse. How big it is! Is that all ours, cried the children! The house is of English owners and you can see that in the interior. It is a very spacious house that makes it feel like an English mansion. Upstairs are three spacious bedrooms with three bathrooms, which is really nice with teenagers. The living room and kitchen are large and cosy. The furniture in the living room needs to be replaced because you are no longer very comfortable on the couch and chairs. There is plenty to do in the area. We found Dinan and Cape Frehel very beautiful. Cap d'Erguy and of course Mont Saint Michel were also fantastic. We really enjoyed our stay in La Ville Josse and definitely recommend this house!
