About this property

Normandy-style gite providing comfortable, clean, homely accommodation for up to 6 guests. We have tried to make "Le Batison" as comfortable and as child-friendly as possible, thinking of all the things you will need for your baby/toddler when on holiday : 2 cots, 2 high chairs, baby's bath, stairgate, bed rails, a potty, children's plates, dishes + cutlery, lots of books, toys and games inside and out. Plenty to keep them busy while you enjoy a glass of wine on the patio. The ground floor bedroom has a comfortable king-size bed (150X200) and a cot, the bathroom is just opposite with a large shower with body sprays, radio and lights, washing machine and towel dryer. Separate WC. Fully equipped kitchen with a dishwasher, large fridge-freezer, micro-wave oven, electric oven with vitro-ceramic hob, toaster, kettle, coffee machine and seating for 6. The living area has a comfortable 3-seater sofa and 2 armchairs, a flat-screen TV and DVD player. Wifi available with router + antenna. There's a spacious mezzanine bedroom/playroom with a double bed, 2 singles and a cot. Outside on the patio there's a barbecue, table, chairs + sunshade, sun loungers and a play area for children with swings, slide and playhouse. Not forgetting our ever-hungry hens which children love feeding, and enjoying their fresh eggs (when they oblige). There are 2 swimming pools, both a 15-minute drive. Ideal for sightseeing: Honfleur + Deauville on the coast 1-hour away, the D-day beaches slightly further. Monet's house + gardens about a 1-hout drive, Cerza Wildlife Park a 45-minute drive, and several local chateaux (4 within a 20-minute drive) one with an 18-hole golf course. For sport-lovers there's the "Base de Loisirs" (lakeside sandy beach) 5 minutes away in Brionne for canoeing, kayaking, mini-golf, tennis and swimming, or just relaxing on the sandy beach. No entrance fee, just small parking charge. Stroll in the local shops, mingle with the population, and even practise your French! Walk in the countryside, grab a bargain at a Brocante or Foire à Tout (Street Fair), play French boules with the locals, or just enjoy a glass of wine on a terrace café as you watch the world go by.

Le Batison: mooie vakantiewoning in rustige omgeving.

We hebben genoten van de rust, de grote tuin, de frambozen, perziken, tomaten en de gezellige kippen. Helaas slecht geslapen omdat het matras versleten is en de springveren erdoor komen. Dat gaf beurse ligplekken, helaas. Het is een huis voor 4 personen maar er waren slechts 2 tuinstoelen (zonder kussens) aanwezig.

About the host

Hosted by Maddie

I fell in love with France as a teenager on a school trip to Dordogne. The following year I came to Normandy on a school exchange trip (my penfriend lived near Brionne) and when I left school I just came over here to improve my French and enjoy life. Over 35 years later I'm still here ! I have done various jobs over the years, but have been teaching English to adults since 1991, working part-time now, saving time to look after our holiday homes.

Why they chose this property

I have lived in the Brionne area for over 35 years since I left the UK and just love the laid back way of life here in Normandy. There's so much space, too, with fields and forests all around, and the people are very friendly, on the whole.
When I met and married Bruno over 20 years ago I knew I'd made my mind up to stay here for good. We bought our own house then went on to build the holiday homes, hoping to provide comfortable, clean places to stay - just what we would have liked to find when we travelled with our two children when they were young. They are both equipped with cots, high chairs, stair gates, etc and many toys and games inside and out (swings + playhouse).
We live in the village should you need any advice/help during your stay but we respect our guests' privacy at all times.

What makes this property unique

Here in the village, it's very quiet and peaceful, but a five-minute drive takes you into Brionne where there are 2 supermarkets, smaller shops including several bakeries, a twice-weekly market and several bars and restaurants. Not to mention the Outdoor Leisure Centre at the lake with its sandy beach, children's play area, barbecues, peddle boats, canoes and mini-golf course.
Honfleur + Deauville are just an hour's drive as is Claude Monet's Garden and Cerza - a great wildlife park. There are several chateaux (Harcourt, Champs de Bataille, Beaumesnil) within a 20-minute drive, one with an 18-hole golf course. Tha landing beaches are about a one and a half hour-drive as is Paris, or just one hour by train. However you'll find plenty of interesting towns and villages a lot closer to home.
