Ideally located close to the millennial city of Bayeux and only a few kilometers away from the American D-Day beaches, Le Clos de Blisse offers the perfect base to discover the historical and cultural treasures of Normandy.
Juno Lodge, Utah House and Omaha Mansion are the three guesthouses available within the 8-hectare property. With no vis-Ă -vis, each benefit from its own private garden and terrace.
All are state-of-the art renovations of 18th century buildings dating back from the French Revolution. Whilst retaining many original features, they provide the highest modern comfort (underfloor heating, wifi, apple tv).
We absolutely enjoyed our 1-week stay to the full; from the surroundings, the garden, the animals, the pool, the interior... to the very charming & helpful host Samuelle. Don't hesitate if you want to book this accommodation; you won't be disappointed.
A great location to explore Normandy, the house was as described and we were really comfortable here. The pool was excellent and always kept clean and warm.
Our host was always availabkle if we had any questions or needed advice and we felt well looked after.
Absolutely loved our stay. We found plenty to do with our 3 boys , ages 11,13 & 13.
Boys loved the pool!
Samuelle is a wonderful host.
Visited an adventure park about 20/25 mins away.
Easy to drive around too with supermarket , petrol station and town only a short drive away. Even a Mc Ds which the kids were very impressed about !
Quiet , beautiful location.
Visited some wonderful places just a little drive away.
Thankyou for sharing your wonderful home with us.
Clean accomadation, with everything we needed.
We had a fabulous week staying in Utah House. The location was perfect for all the WW2 museums, beaches and villages.Samuelle is the perfect host and greeted us on arrival, giving us lots of information about the property. The grandkids loved the pool and being visited by Buddy the Cocker Spaniel and the ducks every day. There is everything you need in the house and it has some lovely items relating to the war in various rooms. The gardens are gorgeous too with outdoor furniture and loungers.Would 100% return and recommend if visiting this area. Thank you Samuelle for an amazing stay.
Excellent stay - very nice design, clean, good beds, cozy kitchen. Stairs upstairs are tricky and not great in the dark. Sam is an excellent host and great tour guide. Would definitely stay here again.
Wir haben eine schöne Woche auf dem ehemaligen Gutshof verbracht. Alle SehenswĂŒrdigkeiten zum D-Day waren von hier aus sehr gut zu erreichen. Sowohl das Haus als auch der Pool und der Garten waren sehr gepflegt. Samuelle ist eine sehr freundliche Vermieterin.
We loved our stay in Samuelleâs beautifully restored farmhouse. She is a fantastic host- offering up anything you need to make your stay more enjoyable. The location is perfect for visiting nearby D-Day beaches, Bayeux and other sites. The garden is a tranquil setting to relax and chat about the dayâs adventures over a glass of local cider. Thank you, Samuelle for hosting us. We loved our time there!
Het is een heerlijk sfeervol huis met een fijne keuken om een kerstdiner te maken en een gezellige woonkamer met haard om bij te kletsen, een film te kijken of spelletjes te doen. Voldoende bezienswaardigheden in de buurt (in Bayeux, D-day locaties en bijvoorbeeld Le Mont Saint-Michel). Aanrader!
We have just returned from an unforgettable stay at Clos De Bliss in Utah House made even better by Samuelleâs unswerving enthusiasm to ensure you have the perfect stay.
The house itself is beautiful and has been very tastefully decorated right down to lovely little additions like the typewriter and old phone in one of the rooms - inspired by war correspondence which used to take place in the property.
The garden is just beautiful and well manicured, plus the addition of the kids swing and slide was a very welcome addition too. We also loved our visits from Buddy, the woolly cocker spaniel who the kids also adored.
The swimming pool and sauna are very well maintained and a day didnât go by where we didnât take the kids for a swim.
Samuelle herself is a gracious host and nothing was an issue. Due to fuel prices going up, the baker could not deliver fresh bread anymore so Samuelle delivered it herself which we really appreciated. Fresh bread and pastries delivered to your home each morning was a great way to start the day.
We were also fortunate enough to have a d-day tour with Samuelle at the American cemetery which we would highly recommend.
We really couldnât fault any aspect of our trip and we hope to return as soon as we can.
Heerlijk verblijf op een rustgevende en idyllische locatie
We hebben een heerlijk verblijf gehad op een prachtige landelijke locatie. De uiterst vriendelijke gastvrouw heeft deze boerderij omgetoverd tot een luxe verblijf. De accommodatie was van alle gemakken voorzien. Alle voorzieningen en historische trekpleisters zijn goed bereikbaar vanaf de boerderij. Wij raden een ieder een verblijf bij Samuelle van harte aan.
Wir waren eine Woche bei schlechtem Wetter dort und es war trotzdem schön. Die KĂŒche ist gut ausgestattet, der Gasherd ein Traum. Die Sauna wurde genutzt und abends der Kamin angezĂŒndet ... Nach Wind und Regen einfach entspannen... Danke an Samuelle fĂŒr die Tipps!
Wir kommen gerne wieder.
We had a lovely but too short stay at this beautiful house in Normandy. The house is in a very quiet, peaceful location but close to lots of sites such as the D-day beaches and Bayeaux. All in all a place to recommend and hopefully weâll be back again sometime soon.
Samuelle lives on the property at a distance of the 3 guesthouses. She is always available for any assistance you might need, and is happy to discuss Normandy and French culture.
Samuelle spent ten years living in England before returning to Paris and finally settling in Normandy where she has restored Le Clos de Blisse for the past ten years.
Graduate in History of Art at the School of Le Louvre and Dr in Anthropology from Cambridge University, she teaches for the American Universities in Paris and has obtained the title of National Guide and offers tours for the D-Day Landing Beaches.
