Wonderful place to stay

Our family of five enjoyed this clean comfortable home in the beautiful French Countryside. Quiet and close to many tourist attractions but still gave the feel of rest and relaxation. Our hostess Catherine was helpful and thought of every detail. Highly recommend this special place.

Home from home

Lovely clean modern accommodation, spacious and well equipped but retaining the charm of the old farm. Well situated for peace and quiet. Mont St Michael has some good cycle paths for those on bikes. The British/French tv programmes were an unexpected added bonus. Love to go back.

Great surroundings, great house, excellent hosts

I'm not a big fan of words, but that's not necessary, because we were absolutely satisfied. Everything we needed was in the house, and the surrounding attractions are barely more than an hour's drive away. Catherine and Shaun, the hosts, tried to anticipate our every need. It would be nice if all hosts were like them. Thank you again for the wonderful, relaxing week we were able to spend with you.

Lovely peaceful getaway

The gite was so clean and everything you could need. The kitchen was very well stocked and a lot of thought had gone in to thinking of everything a guest good need. Such a comfortable bed and good shower, this gite has been lovingly restored by Catherine and Shaun, who are great, friendly hosts. They are contactable for any advice/ recommendations and very knowledgeable of the area, but also leave you to your holiday. They did share pictures and the story of Foxes Farm transformation, as we enquired about it as we love to know the history of where we stay if possible. Good area to visit Mont St-Michel and surrounding villages, a car is a must for getting about. Thank you Catherine and Shaun for a great stay, not to forget Napoleon and Josephine their lovely dogs. Kind regards Shelly and Colin

APPRECIATION GITE FOX FARM

Le gîte est très bien situé, endroit très calme correspondant à notre attente. Parfait pour se reposer. les deux problèmes pour nous ont été le confort des lits insufisant, matelas à ressorts et pas assez de vaisselle, les restaurants étant fermés, nous devions cuisiner sur place.

Ideal zum Entspannen und als Ausgangspunkt für Sightseeing

Wir wurden sehr freundlich von Shaun empfangen. Die Wohnung ist geräumig, sehr sauber und komfortabel ausgestattet. In der Küche ist alles was man braucht (4 Personen und 1 Hund). Wir hatte meistens sehr gutes Wetter und konnten somit häufig draußen auf der Terrasse sitzen. Frühstücken und Abendessen im Freien. Klasse! Der nächste Bäcker in St. James ist ca. 10 km weg. Man muss halt einiges an Fahrten einplanen. Ansonsten haben wir die ruhige Lage sehr geschätzt. Catherine und Shaun haben prompt auf Wünsche reagiert und waren sehr freundlich. Für unseren Geschmack waren einige Bette zu weich bzw. nicht gut gepolstert. We have had a great time in your house. We loved to sit on the terrace having breakfast or dinner. Thank you so much for your support and warm welcome!

Bauernhaus in der Normandie

Wir haben den Aufenthalt von der ersten Sekunde an genossen. Die Lage ist inmitten von Feldern und Wiesen. Die Kühe stehen am Ende des Gartens. Der Garten ist sehr gut eingezäunt, so daß unserer Golden Retriver seinen Auslauf auch ohne Beobachtung genießen konnte. Catherine und Shaun haben uns einige Tipps für besondere Ausflüge und Restaurants gegeben. So konnten wir die Bucht von Mont St. Michel von allen Seiten kennen lernen. Wir kommen wieder !!!

Gastvrij en hondvriendelijk verblijf op de hoeve

We werden vriendelijk ontvangen bij aankomst. Alles was voorzien in de woning. Bedden waren opgemaakt en badlinnen was voorzien. Had je toch nog iets nodig dan was altijd iemand om je te helpen. Goed uitgeruste keuken. Voor ons waren de matrassen te zacht, maar dat is persoonlijk. Onze algemene indruk was een praktische uitgeruste vakantiewoning.

A lovely two weeks in a wonderful location

Everything about this holiday was excellent - from the friendly and informative emails sent by Catherine prior to the holiday to the face to face welcome from them both on our arrival. The gite itself is very good with all the facilities and some that you need for a perfect holiday. We were three generations (with two children under 5yrs) and found it worked perfectly for us. The garden is a delight, ideal for children but equally wonderful as a chill out space for grandparents! The location is excellent - not far from some pretty towns, wonderful landscape and stunning tourist spots along the Bay of Mont St Michel. All in all a 5 star gite in a wonderful rural setting. Fully recommended.

Wish we could give it 6 Stars!

We had the most wonderful 3 weeks in this gorgeous gite, nestled in the beautiful Normandy countryside. The gite is spacious and luxurious - with sparkling en suite showers for each bedroom, ample storage space and a pretty sunny garden. The furnishings are lovely and your every need is met - from the great TV and DVD in the lounge, to the huge dining table and well-stocked cupboards and drawers! Our hosts were truly special - charming, thoughtful and so accommodating - they couldn't do enough for us and were a font of local knowledge! We even feasted from their fruitful veg garden with some lovely healthy goodies for our BBQ! The area is beautiful - lush countryside, wonderful forest walks and a short trip to the spectacular bay around Mont St Michel (Avranches). We explored the lovely towns close by (St James, St Hiliare and Ducy to name but a few) and feasted in many of the great restaurants a short drive away. Granville is close enough to visit and the beaches are all pristine and beautiful. Our dog Norman was treated like a visiting dignitary - he adored the gite, the garden and the walks around the farm - particularly if he could goad the polite and adorable resident dalmatian gentlemen! We managed to find several dog-friendly beaches to explore and the forests presented us all with ample opportunity to walk off some of the delicious bread and cheese! Our teenage sons were comfortable and thoroughly enjoyed the sun-loungers in the garden, as well as the huge TV. They spent a wonderful day canoeing down to the Bay and whipped the water to a froth with their fishing rods near Granville and just over the border in Brittany. The gite is well-positioned for day-trips to Brittany and we spent a wonderful few days gazing at the sun-worshipers in St Malo before discovering spectacular coves along the coast coming back towards Normandy. Our huge thanks to Shaun and Catherine (and the boys) for a fabulous 3 weeks - we can't wait to visit again!
