Spent a lovely week at the property, ideal location with the beach and bar being on your doorstep. Good communication with Kentigern our host, Few minor things let the property down as advertised with parking but then when we arrived were told not to park on the drive. Rear garden could do with a tidy as not appealing for a BBQ, inside the house could benefit from a deep clean as a lot of cobwebs in the beams and behind furniture. Nothing that spoilt our holiday though as we were enjoying the weather outside☀️. Ideal location for visiting war memorials.

Property was better than in the add. Location is superb. The town of Ouistreham had everything we wanted, and it was located perfectly in the heart of Normandy.
6.0 / 10.0
First impression of property from the road was excellent, dissappointing rear garden needed maintenance, BBQ not useable as no grille, old and rusty. Interior of property downstairs, door handle to bathroom fell off, but didn't work anyway as no tongue to latch, same as second double bedroom, shower head blocked and shower attachment on riser does not stay up so you have to hold it. No bulbs in light in third bedroom with single beds, there was still rubish on the floor of that room even though we arrived after the 4pm time. Upstairs all the lounge furniture is old, uncomfortable and sub standard, with normal bedding pillows and quilts covering it. The smallest TV I've seen for many years, lights not working upstairs on the mezannine, various bulbs not working in lounge area. We had an email 12 hours before we arrived informing us that bedlinnen and towel were not included, too late for us to bring any as we were already in Portsmouth that evening for the early ferry the next day. Bed matresses were not box sprung as stated and were just foam. Departure was stated in the book as 12 o'clock, we were then informed the night before we had to leave by 11 am. Kitchen was OK. Sorry to leave bad feedback, never have before and have stayed in France previously many times. It is such a shame as the house and location was superb and had it not been let down by the abovementioned we would have been happy to recommend it to friends. Richard Simpson

Location, Location, Location. You can’t get closer without a houseboat. The view from the upstairs living/ ding room and kitchen straight out to sea is unbeatable and sitting at the breakfast table or playing cards in the evening to the sound and view of the sea was why we came. Right next to a boat ramp you get to watch the locals put in and out. And far enough away from Ferry activity to barely notice it. Once you get over the fact that the bedrooms are on the ground floor with full doors opening out toward the street in the master (and no lock on the front gate) and figure out how to mange the old-fashioned shutters, you can listen to the waves through the shutter slits through the night as well. Our son loved sleeping up in the loft in the „open“ bedroom. We were there at the end of Aug and the ground floor tiles were very cold at night, not sure how showering in late October on the ground floor would go. But the renovation is truly charming and fits the flair of Ouistreham. The concierge service was unfortunately difficult and „forgot“ to tell us to potentially expect people to come through the front gate to do further renovations on the guesthouse. Disturbing and unnecessary, had there been information passed. I found it a little strange to bring my own sheets and very odd to put out the trash on Sunday night with what smelled and weighed like 3 weeks worth of previous renters waste. The house was clean „enough“ and we enjoyed our vacation.

We really enjoyed our stay in this spacious house, right across the street from the beach. The house was very clean, the views of the beach and sunsets beautiful. The only problem we came across was the hot water heater, which had to be reset almost every day. Apart from that, everything was great and we keep fond memories of this stay.

You cannot beat the location for this property. You walk across the cycle path and you are on miles of Normandy beach. During our stay we golfed and visited the D Day beaches and memorials. Longest drive was only about 30 minutes drive. The house has everything you would need in your own home.

Generally very happy with our stay. Ideal location in a lovely house right by the beach. A few minor details just let it down slightly. We couldn’t use the balcony because the door was broken, no CD player, not a great deal of local information - restaurants, things to do locally etc. A better welcome pack would be good. Otherwise we had a great family holiday.

We had a lovely week in June staying in this brilliantly located house. So nice being able to cross the road and be on the beach especially with small children. The house was well equipped and the owner was really helpful in answering all our questions before we arrived
