A little piece of heaven.
A little slice of heaven. Set just far enough away from the main roads to be tranquil. But close enough for local amenities and day trips.Easy access to the ww2 landing beaches and other sites of interest in Normandy. We stayed in the one bedroom former mill house. You look out over the mill pond and weir. and the river below it. Full of wildlife. from Kingfishers to Coypu. Was magical. Our accommodation was compact and cosy. The galley style kitchen was perfect for our easy meals! (Well we are on Holiday.) and the sound of the running water outside was lovely, and not too loud to disturb your sleep with the double glazing. There are some lovely walks in the surrounding countryside for those days when you don't want to drive. Johnny and Lyn were great hosts. Helpful and friendly, with a great sense of humour. We will definitely return.

Wonderful and picturesque location
We loved our stay in our little mill house site. Our hosts Johnny and Lynn were very accommodating and gracious. The location was as beautiful as the pictures in the VRBO listing. We really enjoyed our visit to Normandy and portions of Brittany and in particular the seaside villages. The countryside was beautiful and so are the people of the region. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Calme et reposant
Nous avons passé une semaine fort agréable dans un petit écrin de verdure calme et reposant. Johnny et Lynn sont charmants et nous ont gâté avec leur confiture maison ! Nous avons apprécié la vue sur la rivière depuis notre fenêtre et admiré en silence la petite poule d'eau qui passait avec ses petits, tous les jours. La petite terrasse privative prêt du gîte de l'île fut aussi fort agréable pour prendre notre petit déjeuner tous les matins. Gîte de l'île : à ne pas rater pour les amateurs de tranquillité et de nature !

Idyllic place to stay but
Cannot fault the place its surroundings or the hosts. However even though I asked if it was suitable for disabled people although the 3 steps down to the gite were mentioned I was not told about the raised toilet and shower cubicle.WE coped and because I was sitting outside on the patio Johnny did bring an armchair for me.As I say great stay but one needs to be able bodied.

Beautiful
We stayed in the smallest gite out of the 3 and it was just perfect for the two of us. Everything about this place was amazing so pieceful and relaxing yet with everything you would need in a short distance. The gite itself has everything you would need. The views out of the windows are out of this world and we just sat all evening watching the wildlife in the water and out of the water. Even to have breakfast at the window no watch the wildlife come alive was something else. Our Host Johnny and Lynn were two of the nicest people you could meet and so helpful in all ways yet you wouldn't even know they were there when we was just chilling out around the gardens or at the side of the river. The only bad point I could thing of is that we had to leave this magical place and come home.
