This gĂźte, converted from the cider pressing room of the ancient manor house of La Hougue, is full of history and charm. It is really peaceful - a kilometre from the nearest through road, with dark skies and a beautiful canopy of stars.
The facilities are rustic and comfortable, with everything needed for a self-catering break away from it all.
We used this as our base for visiting the Normandy Beaches and St Mere Eglise. It met all our needs for s family of 4. Monique is a very nice host and greeted us upon arrival. Coming from the U.S. the only aspect that took some getting use to was disposing dirty toilet paper into a garbage can. But then again this is a 500+ year old estate, there was plenty of modern amenities that allowed for us to cook dinners i stead of eating out every night. Utah Beach, St Mere Ăglise and Carentan are all a short 20-25 minute drive.
Sehr ruhig gelegen und freundliche Gastgeberin.
Das Haus ist schön eingerichtet. Leider waren ĂŒberall Spinnenweben und auch Insekten. Die Toilette war fĂŒr uns ungewöhnlich, da das benutzte Papier in MĂŒllbeutel entsorgt werden musste.
Auch ein GelÀnder an der Treppe nach oben wÀre empfehlenswert, da man recht leicht abrutschen kann!
Das Haus war wie erwartet etwas abgelegen, aber innerhalb von ein paar wenigen Kilometern konnte man alles finden, was man benötigt!
