About this property

Charming 1-bedroom gite in delightful countryside hamlet with views

This cozy gite in Saint-Georges-de-Livoye is perfect for your holiday. With 1 bedroom featuring a UK king sized bed (150 x 200), and an ensuite shower room, fully fitted kitchen with a washing machine and a garden with beautiful views of the countryside, guests will have everything they need for a terrific stay. Experience what Manche has to offer with a stay at our gite.

On entering the gite there is an open plan kitchen, dining and living area. There is a 3 seater sofa in the lounge with a television with freesat channels and French TV. Wifi is via starlink. The kitchen is fully fitted with everything you should need for your stay and a good sized dining table. Upstairs is the bedroom with a UK kingsize bed (150 x 200), wardrobe, dressing table and the ensuite shower room with hand basin and w.c.

Bedding and towels are provided.

We have central heating for the colder months.

Outside, you have a garden area with table and chairs which is not fenced, and you are welcome to use the whole of our garden and the different seating areas. There is a charcoal BBQ for you to use. There are horses in the fields in front and to the back of us.

You have your own entrance onto the property and parking is next to the gite. We do have secure storage for bikes if required.

The gite is attached to our house with no internal access. We live on site with our small dog, Dorothy, who is very friendly, and a beautiful cat, Jasper, who keeps herself to herself unless she wants feeding! There is a small fenced off area for Dorothy at the back of our house so that she won’t pester you unless you want her to.


There are lots of lovely walks nearby. In our village, there is a fishing lake with a restaurant and bar in which is open during the day, currently Wednesday through to Sunday. It serves lunches and snacks and of course you can fish.

Brecey is the nearest town, just 5 minutes from us and has all the amenities including bars, restaurants, supermarkets, petrol stations, horse riding, and an open air swimming pool.

There are many beautiful places to visit - here are some of our favourites:

Le Mont Saint Michel is a must visit, a magical island steeped in history and one of the most visited sites in France. For this reason you may wish to visit early in the day or early evening to avoid the crowds in high season.

Parc Botanique de Haute Bretagne - set in 25 hectares and known for its Japanese inspired gardens, it is a true delight to visit. As well as the gardens there is a restaurant based in the old chateau farm just outside the garden, and a tea house in the grounds.

Fougères - visit the ruined castle of Fougères set in the beautiful cobbled streets of the town, a magnificent abbey and gardens, rich in heritage that spans over 1000 years.


Avranches - cobbled lanes, picturesque squares and home to the manuscripts from Le Mont Saint-Michel. The garden, Jardin des Plantes, is very pretty and has a breath-taking view of the Bay of Le Mont Saint-Michel, set opposite the gothic church of Notre Dame des Champs.

Cancale - A lovely port town which is renowned for its oysters and shellfish - and of course a wealth of delightful fish and seafood restaurants.

Saint Malo - Fortified old world town and port with restaurants and shopping.

Saint - Hilaire du Harcouet - a bustling market town. The market is on a Wednesday morning and is the one of the largest in the area. It has an imposing church to visit and below this, a large lake with activities in the summer

Villedieu-les-Poêles - a beautiful medieval town and famous for its copper pan making. Market day is Tuesday morning.

Granville - a seaside resort, market (Saturday mornings) and harbour town. The old walled harbour stands above the town while the lower town hosts the beach and promenade. The museum of Christian Dior is close by and worth a visit, with its tea rooms open in seasonal times.

Excellent place to stay. Close enough to Brecey, the local town but rural enough for complete peace and quiet. Easy to get to all the main local sites and only took just over an hour from Caen.The gite itself was lovely. Very comfortable and clean and spacious.Hosts were amazing. Very helpful and welcoming and we felt well looked after when we needed to be. Would 100% recommend staying here.

Karen was so welcoming and informative. She had left me some milk and some delicious gluten free biscuits (I am coeliac) in the house. It is a delightful place. Everything you could need in the kitchen for cooking and relaxing, making a lovely self catering kitchen.The bedroom is beautiful, with a very high ceiling and gorgeous furniture and linen. There is a lovely en suite bathroom upstairs.Karen had left lots of information in a file and was also happy to suggest possible places to visit as well. She was so helpful to me. I loved the view from the table and chairs across the fields just outside the Gîte. I wish I could have stayed longer and hope tocome back another time. Thanks

House was lovely, exactly as described. A lot of attention to detail has been made to create a comfortable holiday accommodation. Everything you needed was supplied and was of a high standard. Lovely bed linen and towels and very good quality furniture, comfortable bed and lounge. Very clean and tidy. Great parking for the car at side of property in the shade. Lovely to sit out and eat or relax with beautiful views over the countryside. Close to a village for local boulangerie, cafe, restaurant and supermarket and ideal base to explore surrounding area with lots of lovely places to visit. Our hosts Karen and Stuart were great, very friendly and helpful and lovely people to meet and chat with. Last but not least Jasper the cat and Dorothy the gorgeous, sweet little dog that became an everyday visitor that we were very sad to leave. Would definitely stay again and would highly recommend. Thank you Karen, Stuart, Jasper and Dorothy for a wonderful holiday xx

Le gite est situé au calme avec un bel extérieur. L'équipement de la cuisine est un peu minimaliste. Attention l'escalier est très raide surtout le matin au réveil. Le lit n'est pas véritablement un lit king size : il n'est large que de 140 cm. Les propriétaires nous ont fait un bon accueil avec une bouteille et des gâteaux. Nous avons passé une bonne semaine chez eux.

Bonjour, Merci beaucoup d'avoir pris le temps de laisser un commentaire suite à votre séjour. Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié le calme du gîte, son environnement ainsi que l'accueil qui vous a été réservé. Nous sommes également heureux de savoir que vous avez passé une bonne semaine chez nous. Concernant le lit, il s'agit bien d'un lit king size anglais de 150 x 200 cm. Nous avons constaté qu'il pouvait y avoir une confusion avec les dimensions d'un lit king size français, qui mesure généralement 160 x 200 cm. Afin d'éviter toute ambiguïté, nous avons désormais ajouté les dimensions exactes du lit dans notre annonce. Merci également pour votre remarque concernant l'équipement de la cuisine. Nous cherchons toujours à améliorer le confort de nos hôtes et serions très intéressés de savoir quels équipements ou ustensiles vous avez trouvés manquants. Votre retour nous aiderait à apporter les améliorations les plus utiles pour les futurs vacanciers. Merci encore pour votre séjour et pour vos commentaires constructifs. Bien cordialement, Karen
