"When we contacted to arrange the arrival, the owner turned out to be on holiday. The keys were left for us on the inside of the front door. We did not meet the owners after their return from the holiday, so left the keys but left where we found them! The house is in rural area (view of cows, a pig, chickens and geese!). The road on which it is located is very quiet with almost only local traffic. The house is not big but big enough for two people. There are beds for four people, but we think the house is too small for that. We were not so happy about how it was cleaned (or how it was not cleaned!). Sanitary was not clean, on the plates that we got out of the closet were leftovers. First everything that we used was washed away! Beds were clean and neatly made. On the table at the entrance we found a bottle of wine and a lot of delicious cookies, one nice gesture. In the vicinity you will find small villages such as Fresville and at a maximum of 30 minutes drive some larger villages such as St Mere Eglise, Montebourgh and Carentan. The larger villages you really need for groceries and petrol. Finding a restaurant that was open in the evenings turned out to be a challenge, many things served lunch but no dinner."

"What a beautiful house and what a beautiful environment. If you want to unwind and you can stand still, then this is a perfect place. And what a great garden, where every day something new was to be discovered. (+/- 40 meters wide!) It is an old house, so everything is not as smooth and tight. It is a comfortable house with all the trimmings. The description states that the middle part of the house is the house where you are staying, this information is not entirely accurate. The entire house is at your disposal. Some parts are closed (the attic and a barn) The house is located in an environment where, in driving distance, much to see. Among others -Granville with beautiful beaches, old town with cozy shops, -various museums and invasion beaches that tell about D-day, -Le Mont Saint Michel (there you must have been!), -Bayeux (with the carpet of Bayeux, a embroidery of 70 meters long that depicts the history of the Battle of Hastings in 1066 as a comic strip) and - the monastery of Hambye, within walking distance of the house.We were kindly received by the owner and she did her best to speak a word of English speak what was very pleasant for us. Do not hesitate to spend your vacation here ... do not ... go!"

"This year we went back to Normandy for our D-Day tour, some things that we have missed in 2014 or not available yet to have arrived. On arrival we were warmly welcomed by the owner that a Dutchman turned out to be. As a welcome, there was a bottle of cider and a box with a kind cakes with an almond flavor in the form of a parachute (which is very appropriate at Ste Mère Eglise) on the table. The cottage is peacefully situated outside the village of Fresville on as "n 5 km from the famous Ste Mère Eglise. You have the cottage lot of privacy, is cozy and for two persons with two dogs big enough. The friendly owner which lives in the big house behind it, we except upon arrival, only seen again upon departure. However, you could get him if you had him unexpectedly needed to call on both its fixed number, or on his cell phone. both numbers are in cottage there. The cottage has a large fully fenced garden, which was ideal for our two Border Collies. I could keep doing well in this big yard with dog frisbee and I could even a hunting trail off before they get them apart physically too keep mentally engaged. They were also together"

"Our cottage was fully equipped, very clean and spacious. We have used a lot of swing, table tennis and the space around the house. We were very hospitable and friendly welcome with a bottle of cider and delicious cookies. Our French was not so great, but with a little French and a little English, we came out. It's a nice place to be on vacation because you can go either way. Both in Normandy and Brittany. Villedieu-les-Poêles is very close and it's fun to make a tour there and certainly bring the Fonderie de cloches (clockmakers museum) a visit. We have been further include the Abbey Hambye, the zoo in Champrepus, Le Village Enchante, Festyland, Bayeux, not to mention Mont Saint Michel. All advisable. The Bayeux Tapestry I found worth. There are many war memorials view. It's impressive to be. At Point du Hoc Granville is a beautiful port. It is wonderful to watch, to walk along the quay and go to the beach. Boats We also visited a garden Le Parc Botanique de Haute Bretagne. Very large and very nicely set up with surprising elements. Personally I found it a pity that not all weeds ve"

"We are two weeks on holiday in Les Vaux with our family, consisting of parents and four boys (9,8,5,0). We love gehad.Les Vaux is a great holiday in a very central location. We made trips to among others the beaches Granville, Genet and Haut-sur-Mer. Coutances and Villedieu-les-Poêles are nice towns. Furthermore, Le Mont-St-Michel worth a visit. Very nice we found it to climb and dredge with our sons around the island (at low tide). Obviously been a long day at the landing beaches (Utah, Omaha), the Utah Museum, St-Mere-Eglise (we found off putting some), Pointe-du-Hoc (great for our boys with all those bunkers) and an American cemetery . swum twice, once in an outdoor Brescey, once inside Villedieu-les-Poêles. Also a day out with the canoe at Condé-sur-Vire (varying distances are possible). Finally went to St Malo, a little further away but definitely worth waard.Gastvrouw was very nice and sweet, even had delicious crepes baked for us. Kids had plenty of space to play around the door, which came out with the weather."
