The Highlight of Our Stay in Bayeux

My only regret booking this farmhouse was that I didn't stay there longer! The short walk to the train station and the center of Bayeux made it perfect for getting to and from tour meeting spots and eating or exploring in our free time. Despite the beginning of a heatwave during our stay, the house stayed cool enough at night to comfortably sleep, and the gardens provided plenty of shade and a nice breeze; I wish I had time to have a picnic!While I didn't get to meet Christophe myself, he spoke to one of my family members and they had nothing but good things to say. If I ever have the chance to visit Bayeux again, I'll be booking a room here!

Beautiful and unique

This property is stunning! A 17th century French Chateaux with walled courtyard and modern accommodations all within walking distance of Bayeux city center. Our host Christophe was gracious and kind, personally welcoming us on arrival. My children had a blast picking and eating cherries from their trees. My wife and I enjoyed a quiet walk in the well manicured garden. Our accommodations were spacious and comfortable. Perfect for a family of four but can accommodate more on a rollout couches in common areas. Overall an unforgettable and relaxing stay.

Amazing Stay

We could not have asked for a better place to stay on our trip. The pictures do not do this place justice. Perfect place to stay when visiting the DDay sites. Very close to the train station and an easy walk to town. Our host was so kind and helpful. Check in process was a breeze. I can not recommend staying here enough.

Absolutely Incredible!

We can’t say enough good things about our stay at the Farm Manor in Bayeux! The entire property was absolutely incredible and exceeded our expectations in every way. It was a pleasure to meet Christophe and to learn about the 14 year restoration of the property. It was very quiet, yet a short drive to markets, bakeries and the center of the town. If our travels take us to Bayeux in the future we would hope to be able to stay here again. We really enjoyed our stay at this property.

We just had a wonderful stay in Bayeux! Christophe was a great host, very communicative. Location was perfect, we could walk into town through a beautiful nature preserve and it is centrally located for visiting the sites of Normandy. Our kids loved exploring the property and nature preserve.

Important to know: This property has only TWO actual bedrooms, plus fold-out couches in living areas, one of which you have to walk through to get to the kitchen or toilet, with no doors. The other is in a great room that is also the dining room. Though it's not mentioned anywhere, I was told that we somehow should have known to tell them we wanted an additional bed made up for one of our teenagers so they didn't have to share a room. In all the numerous apartments our family has rented, all bedrooms listed in the description were available to us, so we were surprised to find only two prepared for us. Even more surprised to be told we'd done something wrong when the description isn't accurate.This is a very beautiful property with a great deal of charm. However, it's been furnished rather cheaply, with many low-quality items in poor condition, and an oddly stingy allotment of pillows -- one thin, small pillow per person. When I located additional pillows in a closet and asked for pillowcases for them, I was told it was an outrageous request, that no one should need more than 1 pillow! Also note if you're with a larger group that there is only one shower, which unfortunately didn't drain while we were staying. The other bathroom has a handheld shower and tub.It's a very lovely property, but don't expect what you'd normally find in highly-rated listings. It's too bad, as some simple upgrades could make this a much more pleasant and comfortable place to stay.

Beautiful property

Overall it is an incredible place. We stayed with my parents. Close to Bayeaux, had everything we needed. Grounds are lovely! Be aware that there are only 2 actual bedrooms. One with a king bed and one with twins. All the other beds are futons in living areas. Worked out fine for us but might not be great for more than 2 couples.We loved it and would stay again! The hosts were gracious and responsive, house was huge!

The property itself is a stunningly beautiful work of craftsmanship, history, and attention to detail. It exudes tranquility and charm. What magnifies the quality of staying here is the hospitality of the owners, Christophe and Veronique. Thoughtful and accommodating, they are available to be helpful and simultaneously respect your privacy. This is a stay we put on our list of places to which we hope to return someday.

Unique, Historical and Lovely Farm Manor

A most unique, historical and tranquil chateaux with a beautiful garden and courtyard. The view to the steeple of the Cathedral of Bayeux is lovely. The farm manor is immaculate and the 14-year restoration of this landmark a true labor of love. The proximity of this property to the train station and center of Bayeux makes it a convenient location for adventures along the Normandy coast and beyond. And it is tranquil and welcoming place just to sit, ponder and admire. We would love to return and delighted to recommend highly. We had a 6 in our party of family and friends.

Bayeaux Manoir

This has been by far one of our family’s favourite vacation rentals. Christophe is very helpful. His pride in his property shows with the huge undertaking of years of renovations and restoration. So grateful for sharing this historic property with us! The location is perfect. Ask how to walk into town along the river- it was one of my son’s top 3 favourite things to see in all of France. The grounds allow your kids to stretch out. Definitely recommend!!

Outstanding!

My family of six had a wonderful four-night stay at the Manor. The hosts were accommodating and friendly. They provided extra bedding to make our stay more comfortable. We ate in Bayeux several nights, but we all agreed that the meal we cooked in the Manor kitchen was the best. The Manor is on a busy highway, but still safe and convenient to walk to town. The stone fence around the farm made us feel safe and secure. We spent a week in Paris previous to our visit to the Manor, so the peace and quiet of the farm was a welcome relief. We all agreed that when we return to Normandy, we will stay at the Manor. Thanks Christophe and Veronique for a wonderful stay.

Great stay in Normandy!

Beautiful place to stay while we were touring Normandy! We would have loved to stay longer and hope to return in the future. Our family of five had plenty of space for sleeping and socializing. Christophe was an excellent host and did very well communicating details about arrival and updates about any changes. We wish we had more time to enjoy the accommodations as this place has a wonderful history of its own. Pleasantly surprised to find a second bathroom with a proper shower. The kitchen had everything we needed to make small meals and snacks. We drove to Normandy but our daughters arrived by train which was nearby. Overall, a great experience and we will be back!
