Okay, where to start! First and foremost, we have had an amazing holiday and right from booking the communications with the host have been clear, concise, informative albeit in French! (Google translate is my friend!)The house from the outside is stunning, and it has been an amazing base for our fantastic holiday however, we do feel an honest review is needed. The house comprises of 5 bedrooms upstairs, a macerating toilet and a shower room with a sink. All the bedrooms upstairs have a sink in them. Downstairs you have another bedroom, utility room, separate toilet, 2 x bathrooms with a shower over the bath and sink (one also has a toilet), the kitchen, living room and then conservatory sun room. There is a second fridge freezer in the outhouse, and a table tennis table, and BBQ that we didn’t use. The outside areas are lovely but we didn’t use them, there is space to park plenty of cars. The house and grounds are in need of renovations, the furniture in need of replacing and it needs a thorough deep clean. Unfortunately, it goes deeper than French chateau charm and is need of work. The macerating toilet constantly smells and many things are falling apart due to age and usage such as blinds on windows and furniture. You are expected to clean at the end of your stay or pay a 120 cleaning fee and still do some cleaning. There is little provision to be able to do this and you can tell it hasn’t been properly cleaned in a long time. PLEASE NOTE none of this could be rectified

Ideal for large family

There were seven adults and three children staying and as there was a sink in each bedroom and three bathrooms there was no queing to get ready in the morning. The very large conservatory was where a lot of time was spent, mainly due to the pool table. It was a very warm period and it was nice to sit and eat under one of the trees in the large garden. The garden was ideal for children to play in. Ideal location to visit Mont Saint Michel and Villedieu is a charming town. Overall very practical accomodation for a large group.

NICE PLACE FOR LARGE GROUP OF PEOPLE

This is a nice spacious house, we were 3 families with children and there was enough space for all. It's a great location only 30 min to the beach, apr. 40 min to Mont Saint Michel and about 1 hour to Caen or to Rennes. The house has 2 bathrooms and 2 toilets downstairs and 1 shower room and 1 toilet upstair, every room is quite spacious. The only think we could ask the Host is to have a copy of the House Book in English if that is possible as so it will be much easier to understand the conditions. Thank you

Je recommande ce logement à toute personne qui recherche du calme et des grand volume.

Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour en famille en ce lieu. Malgré quelques désagréments avec les systèmes de douche, nous avons pu profiter de toutes les installations modernes et conviviales du gîte : jeux de société, billard, terrain de pétanque. Le pari est réussi : se retrouver tous ensemble dans un moment convivial tout en gardant son autonomie et son intimité. Nous reviendrons sans hésiter.
