The house is perfectly situated to visit all the D-Day Landing beaches as well as Bayeux, Mont St Michel and beyond.
The house itself is very well equipped, all the creature comforts and comfortable too. Lovely secluded and quiet area with cos to say hello to each morning in the field.
The jacuzzi and spa area was a nice retreat to go to after a long day.
We would definitely recommend this property to future guests.

Un grand MERCI Tamara pour ce gentil commentaire. Cela a été un plaisir de vous recevoir.
Bonne continuation.
My father, a history buff who is turning 83 this year, had always wanted to visit the WWII beaches, so of course I had to make his wish come true. When I found No.2 By the Fields, I knew I had found the perfect quaint setting and it did not disappoint. The cottage is perfectly situated between all of the historic sites, but still far enough away to give you the feeling of a quiet country setting, and yet close enough to town for late night pizza and wine; a dream location! It looks true to the photos, and the kids beds (that my best friend and I slept in) were super comfy. All the little details of the place make it super unique and nostalgic. My family and I had a wonderful time and would love to bring other friends and family back at some point to experience the beauty of Normandy and its remarkable history.
