Location is amazing and perfect to head to Granville and Mont St Michel. Lots of little villages around also to explore. So close to the beach by car. House size is fantastic and pool is such a fantastic added benefit to use. House could do with better fans for sleeping on hot nights in every room. Kitchen is so well equipped. We played games out the cupboard and kids played tabletennis badminton and used the bikes. We were family of 9 so house size was perfect

Spacious and comfortable

My family really enjoyed our time here. There is a lot of space which is a bonus for a large family group. The kids (and adults) particularly loved the pool which was deliciously warm - even when the weather wasn't. The table tennis table was in constant use. There is a homely and friendly atmosphere about the house and the location is brilliant for the many visits we made around Normandy.

Perfect house for a family holiday!

La Germainiere House is lovely. Off the beaten track but in easy reach of plenty of interesting things. We were four generations travelling together but the house catered for us all. Grampa loved making us a cozy log fire when it got chilly. The children loved the space to play and run around. The pool area is amazing and the ping pong table was a lovely bonus. Even the weather was good for an autumn break, so we got to see and do lots of things in the area. Would definitely visit again.

Beautiful house in a beautiful location

Everything we could need and close to most of the major attractions such as Mont Still Michel, Bayeux and the beaches. A truly lovely Normandy holiday with a wonderful pool and garden for the kids. Highly recommend Champereus Zoo too.

Week-end au top à la campagne

Nous avons séjourné dans cette charmante maison pour le réveillon avec des amis et des enfants. Tout correspond au descriptif fait par la propriétaire Sue. Elle est d'ailleurs très réactive ! Je conseille vraiment cette maison pour un séjour au calme à la campagne.

bonne impression

Avons passé 4 jours dans cette maison très agréable et chaleureuse. Salon très agréable et convivial, chambres et sanitaires très bien. N'avons pas pu tester la piscine puisque nous étions en décembre. Seul bémol, il faut être anglais car la majorité des indications est dans cette langue, ce qui est dommage lorsqu'on loue une maison en France.

Bonne impression mais

mais vous ne nous avez pas informé que la TV était uniquement en anglais, wi-fi très faible et communication presque impossible (difficile pour des enfants entre 27 et 37 ans) et manque bouilloire électrique. La maison est agréable, les parties communes (cuisine, salle à manger, salon) sont vastes pour loger 12 personnes. Nous avons à cette époque beaucoup apprécié et utilisé la cheminée.
