La Cure
By Chris B on 07-Jun-2025Our hosts Roger and Mary were fantastic. So helpful and considerate. They made sure we had everything we needed and more. Were experts about the local area and had some great recommendations for trips and restaurants. I would recommend them and their gite every time.
A great place to stay with wonderful countryside views.
By Ros Llewellyn on 28-Jun-2025The owners, Mary and Roger, were so welcoming and helpful which set the tone for a lovely stay in their gîte which had everything that we needed. There were views of the wheat fields from the lounge windows and far reaching fields from the bedroom window. A good base for exploring Normandy.
Beautiful gite
By Jerry and Ursula on 20-Jul-2024St Augustine, Germany Thank you for your hospitality in your beautiful gite! You took care for us so nicely we really felt at home, helped us getting repaired our broken car. Fish and chips from your friends were really fantastic. We really enjoyed the quiet place here and the beautiful Normandy. As we don't speak French it was good to have an English speaking host. Looking forward to see you again. Jerry and Ursula.
