75TH DDAY tour Basecamp
Lovely quaint house in the small village of Besneville. The property owner lived next door and was very hospitable and accommodating. She greeted us upon arrival and left us a homemade cake which was delicious. There is a small store and bar across the street with all basics perfect for our first breakfast and last night Dinner. DONT FORGET TO ORDER THE CROISSANT'S ! Simply the best any of us had ever had. The town and its residents are warm, friendly and helpful. A gentlemen on our arrival bought us a round of beers thanking us for our military service and our grandfathers giving France its liberation. We would all return again!

Simply stunning!
Despite a very delayed and late arrival the owner of the house gave us a very warm welcome and a tasty homemade cake. The house was simply beautiful, it was like being home from home. The house contained everything needed for our stay. The village is small and quiet, it has a small grocery right opposite the house which is great for basic needs. The village is a 10 minutes car drive away from some of the most stunning beaches, supermarkets and activity centres. We spent half a day river kayaking (very reasonably priced) and visited some beautiful castles and monts. We are a family of 10 with the youngest child being 10 and can honestly say the area and house had something for all of us. Our only complaint would be the squeaky floors which had a lack of insulation, but once you get over it it adds to the character of the house. Would definitely recommend. Thank you for an amazing holiday!

The house was easy to find and set in a small village with grocers just opposite. The house was clean and beautifully decorated and very spacious. The owner met and welcomed us and had made a cake :) The house was well stocked with everything imaginable. It was within easy reach of attractions too. Highly recommend this property

Entspannter Urlaub
Die Unterkunft ist ideal für eine größere Familie und für Familien die Ruhe haben möchten. In dem kleinen Laden gegenüber bekommt man morgens frisches Baguette und auch Lebensmittel, die man vom Supermarkt vergessen hat. Zu den Stränden und anderen Sehenswürdigkeiten muss man jedoch mit dem Auto 40-90 Minuten fahren.

Großes Haus
Leider sehr, sehr hellhörig. An sich ein schönes Haus. Im Garten leider keine Unterstellmöglichkeit (Sonnenschirm o.ä.). Leider kein Garten mit Wiese o.ä. Haus leider nur bedingt abschließbar. Eigentümer sehr freundlich und nett. Spricht gutes Deutsch und Englisch. Das Haus war nicht besonders sauber. Viele Spinnenweben, tote Fliegen usw. Eine Hrundsaunerkeit ist jedoch gegeben.

A la découverte du Cotentin !
Nous étions 8 adultes. Nous avons profité du long week-end de l'ascension pour découvrir la région du Cotentin. Nous avons adoré et retournerons volontiers en vacances. Le gîte est bien situé entre 30 et 45 minutes de Cherbourg, Barfleur, St Vaast la Hougue.... 10 minutes de Portail où nous avons pu faire du Char à voile. La maison est spacieuse, très bien équipée. Des chambres immenses Merci pour l'accueil agrémenté d'un bon gâteau et d'une bouteille de cidre.

quiet location, house in the centre of a small village.
Our stay was pleasant and relaxing. The house is situated in the centre of a small village. By car you can reach the beautiful, clean beaches of Normandy in about 10 minutes. The owners were very friendly and accommodating. The house is clean; the price/performance ratio was right for us. Unfortunately, you can easily hear noise through the light room ceilings.

ruime vakantiewoning op rustige centrale plaats
Wij hebben met ons gezin van 6 personen een fijne vakantie gehad. De woning is erg netjes en ruim opgezet. De eigenaar spreekt geen Engels (en ik spreek geen Frans). De eigenaar heeft gezorgd dat er een Engels sprekend persoon bij de betrekking en het verlaten van het huis aanwezig was, dat was fijn. In het dorpje is een mini supermarkt/bar met terras, handig voor het stokbrood en dergelijke in de morgen. De eigenaar woont in het huis er naast, als er vragen zijn helpen ze direct. Ik zou hier weer heen gaan en deze vakantiewoning aanbevelen. Het huis is centraal gelegen, bezienswaardigheden zijn 10-60 minuten rijden. Altijd je handdoek en zwembroek meenemen! Leuke restaurantjes gevonden met iedere keer vriendelijke mensen. Brocante, kanoen in het dorp verderop en een museum mag ook niet ontbreken.
