Spend there two weeks as a family with 4 persons and just got back. We felt at home from the start. The house is in perfect condition, modern, with two comfortable bath rooms and a lovely atmosphere. It is surrounded by a beautiful landscape and the only thing you hear in your bedroom are the sheeps from a distance. Sometimes you can see them in the very back from the kitchen or the bedroom window.
Although the very nice owners live on the court, you have your privacy through the fence. We enjoyed the evenings on the terrace, beeing often joined by the nice dogs.
The green around the house gives you the opportunity to play some ball, badminton or table tennis.
How we like to spend our vacation is a mixture of enjoying the beach, have a lazy day at home and go for some longer day trips through the area. Therefore, this house and its location is perfect!
On beachday, we went 15 - 20 minutes to the beaches at St.-Vaast-La-Hougue or -like we did- the beach at Jonville with the nice bar/restaurant at the promotory. We liked the view over the bay and the sea. Very close is a chance to rent Kajaks or Stand-Up-Paddlers.
On your way to the beach, you pass the supermarket ...always a good thing!
The longer trips we did were to Le-Mont-St.-Michel. The trip took one way about 2:15 and we got the hint to be there early. Thank good we started early and entered Le-Mont-St.-Michel at 9 in the morning. When we left 2 hours later, hordes of tourists entered the small place and it became packed! So yes: Be there early is a good thing!
On our way back, we drove by the coast and figured out some more worthy trips.
Our favorite town became Granville. We drove there two times, although it is about 1:45 away. But it`s definitely worth! The beautiful old part of town on the rock with the superb view over the town, the harbour and the sea is wonderful! Below the rock are many good restaurants für sea food or pasta. And of course: Many small and interesting shops my family liked a lot.
On our way back, we used to stop at Hauteville-sur-mer. There is a huge and wonderful beach to rest, swim and enjoy vacation, before driving back to Le Vast.
On other days, we visited the small villages in the area or hiked at the wild coast on the west side near Jorbourg, about 1 h away.
Ah, also a nice trip was Omaha Beach and from there to Bayeux. Omaha Beach is about an hour away and good to combine with some shopping at Bayeux. Nice town with nice shops. A perfect stay
