Lovely stay in a lovely apartment in spite of the weather!!

We spent four comfortable days in the lovely self-contained apartment above Carol and Philip’s home. The two bedrooms were well appointed with plenty of hangars in the closets, heating that we were able to adjust ourselves on a couple very cool nights, and views onto their beautiful garden. The shower room was separate from the WC, a great convenience, and the front sitting room had a TV, books to borrow, and lots of information flyers about Normandy. The very well-equipped kitchen had a kettle, a toaster, a two-burner cook top, and a counter-top oven all of which we put to good use. A lovely welcome package greeted us with a bottle of wine, butter and milk, jam, and a loaf of bread. The apartment was well-located for our purposes, out in the country away from the noise of city living. We were grateful to have dedicated off-road parking when we returned in the evenings after a day of touring. We had some helpful and pleasant conversations with Carol and Philip who are very personable. We would highly recommend this property for your travels in Normandy.

Schattig verblijf

Leuk verblijf bij aardige Engelse eigenaren. Het huisje doet erg Engels aan. Het is op de bovenverdieping, wat vermeld staat op de advertentie. Het ligt aan een doorgaande weg, waar je in het huisje niet heel veel last van hebt, maar om, van de oprit te komen wel lastig.

Alles Prima

Wir können diese Unterkunft sehr empfehlen. Die Gegend ist großartig. In ca. 60min Fahrtzeit mit dem Auto gibt es viele schöne Strände zwischen Le Havre und Dieppe zu erkunden, alte Schlösser, Klöster, Städte. Die Gastgeber sind so, wie man es sich wünscht. Hilfsbereit, herzlich und doch zurückhaltend bis man von ihnen etwas wissen möchte oder braucht. Nur die Kommunikation mit den Gastgebern wird von der Vermietungsplattform komplett unterbunden es war nur mit großer Mühe möglich eine Telefonnummer von den Gastgebern zu erhalten, da diese von der Plattform ständig unterdrückt wurde und auch das senden der eigenen Telefonnummer oder E-Mail-Adresse war nicht einfach möglich. Doch dafür können die Gastegber nichts. Wir empfehlen deshalb unbedingt vor der Anreise rechtzeitig die Kontaktdaten auszutauschen. Allerdings muss man dafür schon einiges an Phantasie entwickeln, damit man das Ziel erreichen kann. Wir werden deshalb diese Plattform nicht mehr nutzen.

Très agréable et excellent accueil

Le gîte est situé au premier étage d'une très jolie maison. L'accès est indépendant. L'appartement est vaste et très bien équipé,parfait pour 4 personnes. Il y a un petit jardin très anglais et qui est un refuge pour les oiseaux.La situation est idéale pour rayonner en Normandie. Les hôtes sont d'une grande gentillesse et très attentionné. Nous n'avons eu aucun problème, nous recommendons cette location qui a une 《english touch》qui en fait tout le charme.

Des propriétaires très accueillants qui habitent au rez-de-chaussée. La manoeuvre de stationnement avec notre grand Scenic était un peu délicate, sinon tout était parfait! Le calme, le confort, l'équipement... Et quand on a besoin de quelque chose de spécifique, il suffit de le demander à nos hôtes. Nous étions parfaitement situés pour visiter Rouen, la côte d'Albâtre, les boucles de la Seine...

Engelse gastvrijheid in prachtige streek van Frankrijk

Wij werden van harte welkom geheten door Philip en Carol. Wij vonden een fles witte wijn in de koelkast, brood, boter en jam voor de 'eerste trek' en bloemen uit eigen tuin in de keuken. Plezierig om in het Engels met de gastheer en gastvrouw te kunnen communiceren. Zij sluiten met hun informatie aan bij wat wij leuk vonden: mooie wandelroutes in de buurt, bezoek aan de tuinen van Monet, Rouen. De outillage van de keuken is heel volledig, de bedden slapen goed en we mochten in de prachtig onderhouden bloemrijke tuin zonnen en lezen. Een aanrader!

Nice and complete gîte at excellent location

We visited with the five of us, us parents and three (almost) grown up children. On arrival, we had a warm welcome by Carol and Phillip. The appartement was nice and complete, with a very roomy and practical kitchen. For us the kitchen was the central part: cooking, talking and of course eating! There is also lots of room to sit in the garden. The gîte is beautifully situated, near woods, the banks of the Seine, Rouen and a little more distant the coast and the cliffs. Excellent starting point for walks, easily indicated on the maps provided by Carol and Phillip. We had a really good time!
