Julie and James were very kind and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and loved seeing the sheep, feeding the chickens and playing with the dogs, especially Darcy. The Gite is well set up for disabled people. It is in a perfect situation for a relaxing stay. We would love to go back.
We thoroughly enjoyed our weeklong stay at this lovely gite, located in a beautiful rural setting. It was well located for exploring inland and coastal areas of Normandy and Brittany. The accommodation was spacious, clean and comfortable. It was very wheelchair friendly , with a large downstairs bedroom and adjoining bathroom. There was a gap between the floor and the bed to accommodate our hoist.Our hosts, Julie and James were so friendly, welcoming and helpful. Thank you very much.
This gite was perfect for our holiday, it is in a fabulous location, quiet but close (5 minutes) to a large town but in a beautiful rural setting. Lots of attractions nearby, amusement parks for the children, great beaches and close enough to the Normandie D Day sights should you feel like a day trip. The hosts were excellent, attentive when required but otherwise left us to enjoy our break. If you need a gite with plenty of space for a disabled guest, then this is your place!

Thankyou for the great review, it was a pleasure to have you stay. 😀
Julie and James very much left us to enjoy the property but they were available if we needed them. They were very supportive of our needs. It is a spacious property, very suitable for a wheelchair user (our daughter). The property is set in a beautiful rural location with a lovely view. The nearby town and shops are approximately 5 mins away by car. The wifi was very reliable and had a good srrong signal. It is so nice to find an accessible cottage in france. We would definitively recommend this property to others.

Thank you Neil, it was a real pleasure having you and your family staying at Les Cours.
Nous avons étés accueillis par le mari de Julie, un hôte d'une gentillesse extrême que nous avons énormément apprécié.
Le cidre bio, sans additif et fait maison qu'il nous a offert, était excellent.
Le logis était propre et très agréable ; surtout il était très bien situé pour visiter les grands sites touristiques de la partie est de la Bretagne et de la partie ouest de la Normandie. À savoir, Le mont St Michel, Saint-Malo, le château de Fougères, le moulin de la See, etc.
Nous avons apprécié l’absence de contraintes sur les locataires, ce qui est rare, et l’environnement, au contact de la nature et d’animaux de ferme.
Nous vous recommandons sincèrement cette location.
Rustikaler Charme, sehr ruhig gelegen, aber viele Sehenswürdigkeiten und viel Lebensart in einem Umkreis von 5-30 Minuten mit dem Auto zu erreichen. Die Vermieter sind herzlich und einfach wundervoll. Sehr zu empfehlen.
location très agréable, propriétaires anglais très aimables
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour au milieu de la campagne, avec un entourage d'animaux (chiens, moutons, poules, chèvres et vaches à proximité) avec une magnifique vue. Nous avons mangé dans de la belle vaisselle anglaise. Par contre, il n'y a plus de trampoline, ni toboggan pour les enfants comme annoncés sur votre site Abritel.
Lovely place, large garden area (field!) outside of the door. Town is a couple of minutes drive, has McDonald's, lidl, Market.
Cooking utensils, microwave and everything else you could need.
Lovely owners, gave us ideas of where to go if we wanted to go out fir the day.
Well appointed, everything required for a wheelchair user. Comfortable living room. Friendly informative hosts live next door with 2 friendly wee dogs that came to visit daily. Kitchen scraps fed to the chickens and goats added to our enjoyment.
The gite is a good position for visiting Normandy, Northern coast is achievable too.
le calme de la campagne normande, pas loin de la mer.
Une semaine très agréable, au calme dans une belle campagne normande.
La maison est spacieuse et commode ; nous avons bien profité du jardin où c'était un plaisir de se relaxer.
Les propriétaires étaient très sympathiques et attentifs.
Un séjour qui est passé trop vite! On espère y retourner!
Charmante maison, beau jardin, équipé pour les enfants. Les propriétaires sont adorables, très accueillants. Activités sympas dans les alentours, cascade, forêt, lac pour baignade. Nous avons passé un agréable moment en famille.
Skøn feriebolig med masser af plads til familien - og de engelske værter bor next door. Autentisk og hyggelig atmosfære udenfor lille landsby. Dyr på gården og stor have med græsplæne og numighed for grill.
A good house in a quiet surrounding and also for someone with a handicap a pleasant home. You have a bathroom with al the facility's you need and enough space to move with a wheelchair of rollator.

About the host
Hosted by Julie Foster
We are young family who decided to emigrate to enjoy a new way of life. We have 2 daughters 16 and 12, who love meeting new people. James is a builder and I teach English at the local primary school. We love food, gardening cooking and socialising. We are always available to help you achieve the best from your holiday; to advise on what to see, do, and experience while you're here. We are all fluent French speakers, should any problems arise during your stay, rest assured, we can be there for you. As a family we will go that extra mile.
Why they chose this property
Our desire to see our children grow in the country, in safety with the dream of eventually being self-sufficient food wise, was the driving force behind our decision to move here.
Les Cours is the perfect holiday destination if you enjoy peace and quiet and like "getting away from it all" But still want to have easy access to all the usual amenities that a lively town can offer. We are on the borders of Brittany and Maine with easy access to the Motorway. From here you cant head directly to Avraches, Caen, Rennes and Paris.
There are several Greenways in proximity for hikers and cyclists to enjoy. It is possible to cycle near to Le Mont saint Michel on these disused railway lines.
What makes this property unique
Whilst staying at Les Cours we can guarantee a peaceful stay where you can just relax and enjoy the view, visit many of the fabulous local tourist attractions or travel a little further afield and see the incredible Normandy beaches and the Bayeux Tapestry for example. Be aware that an hour's drive in France, does not in any way resemble an hour's drive in the UK. The roads are a pleasure to use with the absence of traffic.
