Review Submitted: September 5, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Location - Well positioned for access to D-Day sites of interest. About 30 mins to Bayeux and just over an hour to Mont St. Michel. The village setting is rural, quiet and very picturesque. A car is essential.

Accommodation - Modern conversion of characterful building. Spacious, clean, well appointed, good facilities, very comfortable.

Hosts - Absolutely fantastic. Extremely helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. Very friendly and welcoming.

Summary - Next time we come to Normandy we will be staying here again. There's no point in considering anywhere else. Highly recommended.

Lovely gite, great location

Karen and Thor Houston, USA
Review Submitted: July 29, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We spent one week at the Gites Champetres. The owners were very helpful and we were very happy with the gite. We were a 5 adults and 2 children. The gite was very spacious and had a great outdoor space for the children. There was a nice welcome pack on arrival which included biscuits, coffee, wine and cider. The owners also offered a shopping service. They were very helpful without being intrusive. The gite was well-equipped and conveniently located for visitng the D-Day beaches, Mont St Michel and the Bayeux tapestry and was also within walking distance of a boulangerie. Only downsides were that the local restaurant was closed for annual holidays when were were there and the church bells rang out for 5 minutes continuously at 7.00 am every morning. Neither of these prevented us from having a very enjoyable week. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to explore this charming area of Normandy.
