We had a wonderful 5 night stay at Catherine’s beautiful gîte! We drove from the UK and met up with the grandparents from the US in order to see all of the D-Day sites. This location was absolutely perfect to visit sites around Bayeux and also Utah Beach and Ste Mere Eglise. We previously stayed closer to Bayeux and this location was much better for visiting sites in both directions. The house is substantial and perfectly accommodated our group. The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen has everything you need for easy dinners in. My son absolutely loved the dogs and chickens on the property! There are two groceries within easy driving distance. We had a packed 5 days and saw everything on our list and more! Would absolutely stay again!
We verbleven voor 6 nachten/5 dagen met 10 personen. De accommodatie was heel proper met mooi opgemaakte bedden, parkeergelegenheid op het terrein zelf, gebruik van de grote keuken met alle benodigdheden. De eigenaars hebben 2 honden (niet de hele tijd los op het terrein),die dol enthousiast en lief zijn, maar als er mensen zijn met schrik voor honden, wel even vermelden bij het boeken/reserveren.
Le gîte est très agréable pour une famille comme nous qui a plaisir à se retrouver. Chacun a son espace très confortablement installé et décoré avec beaucoup de goût et nous avons pu bénéficier des espaces communs bien équipés (salon et cuisine) pour partager nos repas et passer du temps tous ensemble. Le billard et la table de ping-pong ont aussi été très appréciés.
The house was fabulous. The property is gorgeous with a beautifully renovated farm house -modern amenities and comforts within a classic setting. Top notch furnishings and very tasteful The perfect location for DDay beaches and Monte St Michel daytrips. Peaceful and restorative - we could not have been happier. Catherine our host and her family were lovely. We were sad to leave!
Out in the countryside but just ten minutes at most by car to bakeries and supermarket. Good location for seeing the beaches. Our hosts were very nice, and their dog made friends with our grandkids immediately. Spacious accommodations. Only downside was a minimal supply of toilet paper and rather light supplies of cooking spices, etc. overall a really nice place for families, nice hosts, good location. Would definitely recommed it.
This ancient home is THE place to stay if you are visiting the Normandy area. House is immaculate, clean, and has all the modern amenities you’d need. Comfortable, tons of space, comfortable beds, quiet and picturesque. We stayed with 10 people ranging from age 10-70 years old and everyone had a nice bed to sleep in.
The host and hostess went above and beyond to welcome us, remaining flexible with our up-in-the-air arrival time due to strikes in Paris. They showed us around, provided farm fresh eggs our last morning, allowed my daughter to play with their friendly dog outside, showed us their horse, and even built a fire for us on the last night.
My only regret is that we didn’t plan to stay longer. 5 stars!!!
Très agréable maison avec plusieurs zones de vie permettant à tous de trouver ses marques.
Espace extérieur très agréable également et très bon contact avec les propriétaires
Vacances en famille avec des enfants et des adolescents.
Nous avons apprécié l'espace de la maison et les 5 chambres avec trois espaces distincts, mais j'ai particulièrement apprécié la grande cuisine bien équipée et très lumineuse qui autorise des repas à 6 personnes sans aucun problème de circulation, et des soirées avec des jeux de sociétés.
Les garçons ont adoré le billard et ma fille a profité de son espace pour dessiner et peindre.
Localisation idéale pour faire des sorties historiques de Utha, Sainte mère l'église jusqu'à Caen en passant par Colville et la pointe du Hoc.
Very accommodating. We ended up arriving much later than anticipated and the owners awaited our arrival without hesitation. Clean property with a lot to do and fun for the kids. I seriously do not think it could have been a better location for seeing the beaches, museums, etc. You really got the true feel of not only what it was like during WW2 but also in current relaxing times. Highly recommended
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cette maison. La maison est très bien équipée. Les propriétaires sont très sympathiques et disponible. C’était l’endroit parfait pour fêter Noël en famille et pour visiter plein de lieux malgré la pluie.
Nous avons passé deux semaines dans la belle et grande maison de Catherine et Fabrice nos hôtes à l écoute mais discrets la maison est confortable la literie très récente un grand jardin entoure la ferme la ville d isigny est proche nous serons heureux d y retourner
Das Haus war sehr schön und vollständig eingerichtet. Der kleine Billiardtisch hat in den wenigen Regentagen keine Langeweile aufkommen lassen. Die Gastgeber waren zuvorkommend und völlig unkompliziert. Der Hofhund und die Hühner und Enten haben zum Wohlbefinden beigetragen. Das Haus ist sehr zu empfehlen. Vielen Dank für den schönen Urlaub.
We had a really fantastic time in Isigny sur Mer. The hosts are very charming and warm people. The house is beautifully situated and had spacious neat rooms, each with their own bathroom. The house has every accomadation and is really neat. Of we visit Normandy again, we will boon the house immediatly.
Harmoniedes lieux: belle nature normande,authentique maison en pierres pleine de charmes.Un lieu où il fit bon vivre une semaine entre amies entre terre et mer.De plus,des hôtes charmants et attentionnés. Une belle découverte.

L’accueil fut très chaleureux et nous avons passé un très agréable séjour dans cette belle maison rénovée avec beaucoup de goût.
Nous avons apprécié le calme et l’emplacement idéal pour découvrir les plages du débarquement et le Cotentin
La table de billard a eu grand succès auprès de toute la famille.
