Great Hosts
Glen and Sam are very friendly and welcoming hosts. They were very helpful and knowledgeable about the area. The gite itself is quite compact but ideal for a couple and has everything you would need. There are many interesting places to visit in the area, we didn't have to travel very far.

Lovely stay, sadly cut short because of quarantine introduction
We stayed at Glenn and Sam’s property in Domfront, rather than Passais-villages and it was really nice. We were there for less than half our planned holiday, but we made the most of the time we had.

Un gîte très bien équipé dans une région très agréable
Nous avons passé cinq jours en août chez Samantha et Glenn. Etant avertis que tout se passait en VO, nous n'avons pas eu de surprise ! L'intérieur est bien équipé, l'accueil de Samantha est très aimable. Il n'a pas fait assez beau pour que nous profitions de l'extérieur, mais c'est un bel endroit. Le seul bémol est la taille de la salle de bains, mais tant qu'il ne fait pas froid ou humide, on peut très bien faire avec . Et le poêle à bois doit être bien agréable !

About the host

Hosted by Samantha & Glenn Turner

Host profile image
After 30 years in property management we made the decision to move to France on early retirement 8 years ago. We enjoy the relaxed lifestyle and have successfully offered our Gite to guests from all around the world. We are returning to the VRBO platform but have had a 9 out of 10 rating on another booking site.

Why they chose this property

Fell in love with the character of La Vente along with its location. Situated just a few minutes walk from the village centre where you find all you need. Its a quiet location within easy reach of many interesting place.

What makes this property unique

Quiet location but near to local bar and a few minutes drive to the charming village of St Fraimbault which has for many years won awards for its summer flower displays. There is a lovely lake with a bar perfect for just relaxing in the summer sun.
