About the host

Hosted by Gite Saint Julien

Host profile image
We live in Dublin and have been visiting France for a number of years. Our daily lives are busy and the lovely property we acquired in Domfront provides us with the opportunity to escape and just relax in the lovely town of Domfront and discover the stunning Normandy history.

Whilst we do not live in France our property is in the very good hands of Leanne Engley who is based in the Domfront area. She will ensure that you have a comfortable stay and is available to deal with any queries you may have.

Why they chose this property

The property required total renovation which has taken 4 years to complete. Located in the heart of Domfront the property falls within a historic conservation area. When carrying out the renovation we had to ensure none of the unique features were lost and we were keen to ensure all work was carried out sympathetically.
To ensure none of the character was lost we employed a specialist architect and local craftsmen.
The house has been transformed and now provides a wonderful holiday home.

What makes this property unique

Situated right in the main square Gite St Julien is close to all the local restaurants and bars ensuring that no one has to drive. Within less than 5 minutes walk you have no less than six bars and restaurants.
The Chateau is just minutes away along with the tourist office. Domfront is a lively town with regular events throughout the year (check the local tourist office website)
We hope to welcome you to our unique property.
