About this property

Peaceful Cottage Near Carentan, Normandy

La Grairie is set in a small hamlet on the edge of St Georges de Bohon. We are surrounded by fields and networks of quiet and unspoilt lanes which make it a delightful place for walking, cycling, or just going for a wander. It is a great place to relax and unwind in the peaceful surroundings. As well as many beautiful beaches and historic towns within easy reach, the area is rich in D-Day history.
The cottage is detached and adjacent to the owner’s house - we are on hand to help should you need it, but certainly not to intrude. La Grairie is less than 10 minutes (7km) from Carentan where all amenities can be found and a good selection of shops and several large supermarkets.
We provide a welcome pack which includes some essential items like tea bags, milk and bread, as well as some locally-produced camembert and cider from our orchard.

Downstairs is the open-plan living area which leads out to the private and enclosed back garden. Upstairs there are 3 bedrooms, sleeping 6 (2 doubles and a twin room), and a bathroom with shower cubicle.
Outside, there is seating for 6 people, and we provide a BBQ with a bucket of charcoal. To help you relax, there are two sun-loungers to take a snooze on.

The garden overlooks the orchard, where you are free to wander and maybe meet our three ponies and three friendly goats.

Whether you spend your time out and about, enjoying some of the many attractions the area has to offer, or just prefer lazy days, relaxing in the garden, there really is something for everyone at La Grairie!

Fantastic gite and holiday
We had an amazing week. Helen's generosity with the welcome pack, fresh flowers throughout the week and homemade biscuits was a lovely surprise. Helen was so friendly and helpful with her recommendations. A week wasn't long enough as there was so much to do in the area. We would definitely want to stay again.
