The property was spotless and the boys loved playing basketball and table tennis in the garage. Hosts friends, parking easy. A short walk to the local supermarket and bakery. We enjoyed our stay. The only minor thing is a wife who has a cleaning business wanted more cleaning cloths. But overall we had a great time

Large comfortable property

This was a lovely large home in a very quiet location. It was within a short walking distance of the port with shops and restaurants and near the local grocery store. It was immaculately clean with a large living area and three very spacious bedrooms with 2 modern shower rooms.

Wonderful holiday!

We had a wonderful holiday in this gorgeous gîte! It was a fabulous place to stay! Everything was perfect and the location could not have been better. The beautiful port was within walking distance, with lovely walks, shops and cafés. We were warmly greeted by Valerie and we felt at home straight away. Our grandsons loved the enormous playroom, while we could relax in the lovely lounge! We were sad to leave and look forward to coming again!

Simply Brilliant

Stayed with my Wife and Grandson and my best friend and his Wife. The house is amazing,spacious and clean. Beds are comfortable. It’s in a quiet area but close enough to all the bars, restaurants and tourist shops. All the D Day beaches and museums are within a short drive.There is a very well stocked supermarket a 10 minute walk from house. It’s roughly a 45 minute drive from the port at Ouistreham. A quick text to our hosts when we landed with an eta and they were waiting for us when we arrived. Very friendly and gave us a guided tour of house. We shall be back without a doubt. This place is fantastic. Thankyou so much.

We hebben dit huis voor de tweede keer bezocht met ons gezin, in weer een hete periode. Gelukkig blijft het in het huis wat de temperatuur betreft aangenaam. Het huis is van alle gemakken voorzien. Het enige wat wij een beetje miste is een wasdroger. In de garage staan verschillende kinderfietsen stepjes, een tafeltennistafel en een basketbal, ect verschillende spelletjes. Het huis heeft een ruime tuin die afgesloten is. Het is gelegen in ons favoriete dorp niet ver van een mooi strand in Vierville sur Mer (Omaha Beach) en veel van de plekken van D-Day. In Port en Bessin vindt je voldoende restaurants. De bakker op 10 minuten en de supermarkt op 5 minuten lopen. Voor ons is het een huis waar we graag zouden terugkomen. Tip; Als je van ijs houdt is een bezoek aan Ferme de la Haizerie een aanrader, in Port en Bassin kun je bij O peche mignon ook dit heerlijk ijs kopen

Wunderschönes, gepflegtes Ferienhaus mit sehr viel Platz. Parken ist direkt vor der Eingangstür möglich.Valerie und Francois, die Gastgeber, sind immer freundlich und hilfsbereit. Und wichtig für behinderte Menschen: alles ist ebenerdig und somit barrierefrei. Im Ort gibt es alle Geschäfte, die man braucht. Besonders empfehlenswert ist die Fischhalle, wo man täglich von Dienstag bis Sonntag frischen Fisch von den Fischern kaufen kann.

Prachtige ruime vakantie woning voor een gezinsvakantie. Parkeren op prive terrein is ideaal voor het in en uitpakken van de auto. Het vissersdorpje is uniek. Ondergaande en opgaande zon is prachtig vanaf de heuveltop en de cliffen te zien. Altijd bedrijvigheid langs de kades. En alles op loopafstand.

Het huis l’Ancre du Mer’ is sfeervol en netjes. Wij waren met 2 stellen, daarvoor is er ruimte genoeg. Er is voldoende parkeergelegenheid voor 3 auto’s op eigen terrein. De ligging is uitstekend; in 17 minuten lopen bereik je de levendige haveningang met de vismarkt.. De eigenaren zijn zeer vriendelijk en geven graag tips. Op verzoek van ons bestelden zij een schotel ‘Fruits de Mer’ voor 4 personen voor onze aankomstdag vanuit Nederland. Marianne

Wunderbares Ferienhaus

Wir bedanken uns bei Familie Daniel für den wunderbaren Aufenthalt. Das Haus ist sehr schön eingerichtet und ausgestattet. Die Spielhalle hat uns viel Spaß bereitet, gerade wenn das Wetter mal nicht so gut war. Zu Fuß konnten wir zum Hafen laufen. Und zum super Strand nach Omaha Beach war es mit dem Auto auch nicht weit.

Zeer mooi huis op een rustige locatie. Binnen is het erg sfeervol ingericht en bijzonder ruim. Daarnaast als verrassing nog een sporthal in de garage ernaast voor de kinderen. Kamers zijn allemaal prima in orde en de badkamers zien er keurig uit. Een perfecte locatie voor een grote familie of meerdere gezinnen. Erg vriendelijk ontvangst door de verhuurder. Aanrader!

Wunderschöner Urlaub mit Freunden

Ein tolles Haus mit toller Spiel-Garage. Das Haus ist sauber und modern eingerichtet. Die Ausstattung ist umfassend. Wir hatten alles, was wir brauchten. Ein Highlight ist die riesige Garage, in der unsere Kinder (und auch wir) oft Basketball und Tischtennis gespielt haben. Der große Wohnraum bietet genug Platz, damit jeder sein Plätzchen für sich findet. In wenigen Geh-Minuten ist man am wunderschönen Hafen und Strand mit vielen Restaurants und Souvenirläden. In ca. 5 Minuten ist auch der große Supermarkt erreichbar. Die direkte Kommunikation mit Valérie und Francois (auf deutsch und englisch) lief super. Empfehlenswert!!!

Heerlijk huis

In een van de warmste periodes hebben we in dit huis verbleven. Binnen bleef het ondanks de hitte buiten aangenaam koel. Het huis is compleet ingericht , van alle gemakken voorzien en zeer ruim. Het contact met de eigenaren voor en tijdens het verblijf waren zeer aangenaam. Doordat we onderweg weinig file hadden waren we eerder dan verwacht in Port en Bessin, we hebben dit laten weten waarop de direct naar het huis konden. Leuk dorp,, op een ongeveer 7 minuten lopen is er een bakker, Op 10 minuten lopen vindt je de haven met verschillende restaurants. Om de hoek is er een supermarkt. In de buurt zijn mooie stranden (bij oa Colleville-sur-Mer), hou wel rekening met het tij. Kortom een heerlijk vakantie in een mooi huis. met vriendelijke groet Jaap, Nel, Rogier en Lennard
