This home and gardens are beautiful. The location was perfect for walking to restaurants, shopping, the Caen castle, and a great central location for our day trips. The host was inviting, responsive, and helpful.

This property is conveniently located to walking to the square where there was a wonderful market on Thursday. The apartment was beautifully decorated and comfortable with a well equipped kitchen. The beds were comfortable, and the apartment was spotlessly clean. Schedule for the breakfast which is substantial and located in the beautiful dining room. Elizabeth plays classical music which is just a perfect way to start the day.

Enjoyed a wonderful, but too short a stay in the apartment at Elizabeth & Gaël’s charming place in Caen. It is situated just a few steps away from a vibrant neighborhood with so many restaurants and shops. We were in Caen to explore nearby sites of Bayeux, with its magnificent tapestry, and the D-Day beaches and museums. Sadly, we did not have sufficient time to explore Caen itself. The flat was well and comfortably furnished and had everything we needed. The hosts were delightful, and very communicative and extremely helpful. Would certainly recommend!

Wonderful location and host. Perfect location for getting to train and to the places we toured for WWII sightseeing. Very clean and host was thoughtful and helpful. Can’t wait to go back!

Nestled in the heart of the old part of Caen, this garden apartment is a sanctuary of peace. There is a warm welcome from the owners, who live on site, and their eye for beauty and attention to detail is very apparent. We had a wonderful time.

This wonderful spacious apartment is located right on the edge of a large pedestrian zone, so it is beautifully centrally located. While the house has a feeling of history, it has all the modern conveniences you could ask for. There's a bright fully stocked kitchen (all you need to bring is some food), a living room, a small bed area, a bigger one (with an incredibly comfortable bed) and two baths. There is a fantastic private garden and there's also gated parking. Hosts were absolutely lovely, and it truly is a gem. Would recommend 10/10!

This apartment in Caen is spacious, is an 18th century building and very unique but updated for the 21st century. Elizabeth was very helpful and a welcoming host. Location is ideal for walking through this ancient city.

The apartment is spacious, the furniture all comfortable and everything clean. There are French doors in each room leading to a lovely garden area that we had to ourselves. The location is ideal, a short walk to the center of town and the tram yet very quiet. If we get the opportunity to come back to Caen we would stay here again. Also, our hostess was delightful and very helpful. Finally, the city of Caen was a wonderful discovery for us. We didn’t know what to expect and were pleasantly surprised.

Elizabeth was a lovely hostess and the place was perfect for us. We loved the charm of this 19th-century villa and the location was perfect - right downtown, yet tranquil. Communication with Elizabeth was easy, as she speaks both French and English. I highly recommend this place.

Elizabeth’s is a most elegant house with a lovely garden, just minutes from the central Place St Saveur. Elizabeth welcomed us most warmly to our comfortable rooms and modern bathrooms. Sitting in the salon, one feels like an 18th-century duchess. We recommend Boulangerie Marcel in the Place and La Casinière restaurant almost next door to the house. A great spot from which to visit Caen and the rest of Normandy.

Location is steps from castle, restaurants, bars and shopping. We had a car, but 24hr tickets on modern tram system was only 4 €. Parking is secure at your doorstep. Owner is a delightful, kind and attentive host. The flat is a comfortable blend of quirky and modern. The master bath shower was top rate. We’d definitely stay here again.

Perfect location with private parking right in the middle of Caen. Walking distance to l local shops, restaurants, and attractions. Wonderful to have an apartment all on one level on the ground floor- only one step between the entry hall and the living room. Apartment is perfect for two people. If you are more than 2 people, be aware that the second bedroom is very small and you must walk through this bedroom to reach the master bedroom. Hosts are great - very accommodating, speak English, communicate well, etc. We were given welcoming gifts - a bottle of wine, apples, cookies, etc and told not to hesitate to contact them. Each bedroom has its own full bathroom both with a toilet and sink and stall showers only. If you are only 2 people there is a one-time fee of 15 euros to unlock the second bathroom. We stayed for a week and felt this was a great value to have a two bathroom apartment. Kitchen is small, but we’ll-equipped. Only downside is that there is only a counter-top oven. Full-size refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave oven, and washing machine were much appreciated.

We had a great 2 days stay at this place. Enjoyed it very much. Owner Elizabeth was very friendly and helpful. Appartement was clean and looks even better then on the pictures. Will recommend the place

This property was very comfortable, spacious and clean. We especially appreciated the private parking in order not to have to search around for long term parking. The location is superb! Close to food, shopping and sight-seeing, lots of local activities yet once inside the mansion it is very quiet. Our hostess, Elizabeth, was very, very helpful and courteous. The property is entered from the side so don’t be dismayed when you arrive and you don’t seem to see the same property that is pictured in the VRBO posting. The picture is of the front of the mansion, which faces a lovely enclosed yard. We highly recommend the property.

Stunning traditional apartment with a all the mod cons! Couldn’t fault the location, we had the car but walked everywhere. Very friendly owners, who spoke great English. We’ll definitely be going back.

Lovely clean historical apartment with beautiful French doors opening onto a sweet courtyard garden. Traveled to Caen with my 3 children aged 14 and husband. We couldn't have been more thrilled with this apartment! Bathrooms and kitchen modern and updated , all linens fresh and clean and white. The atmosphere of the apartment was as if you stepped back in time. It was magical! Location was great to visit the beaches and surrounding towns , nice restaurants within walking distance and very safe. We had a wonderful time I only wish we could have stayed longer!

"We very much enjoyed the room. The breakfast each morning was served in a very pleasant dining room and the fare was delicious, especially the homemade jams. We were very close to the shops, restaurants, and sites. We also very much enjoyed the little restaurant Le Petit Farme. Quaint atmosphere, wonderful food, and within 5 minutes of our room."

"We enjoyed a very pleasent stay in this chambre d'hôte which is part of a historical house with nice classical and authentic furniture. The place is ideally located in the center of Caen, but with parking place available. This all, together with the great hospitality with which we have been received, makes it a place where we will certainly return if we would visit Normandy again."

"A wonderful experience, attention to detail was superb. Very clean, excellent breakfast and Elizabeth was a charming hostess. We were allowed to use the owners garage for our motorbike and were given exceptional service and advice. Look forward to visiting again in the near future."

18th Century Mansion in the historical center of Caen. We were thoroughly delighted with our stay at this B & B in Caen. The house itself, an 18th century mansion, is truly magnificent and beautifully furnished. Our bedroom suite was roomy, comfortable, and charmingly decorated and, after a busy day touring and travelling, it was wonderful to return to the fresh fruit and bottled water that always awaited us in our room. Breakfast overlooking the rose garden with classical music playing softly in the background was always a treat - we were there for three days and each morning there were differents breads, pastries and types of yoghurt and, important for us Americans, orange juice. The floral bouquets throughout the house were replaced daily and one evening, our landing was lit by a small dish holding a flamboyant candle floating among freshly-gathered rose petals. Gael and Elizabeth were wonderful hosts -- Gael helped us with our WiFi connection and accompanied us to the local tram stop to help us out with local public transportation. Their recommendation of a restaurant was spot on. We also appreciated the gated parking space in front of the house. We would certainly return to this B & B and recommend it without reservation. It was a wonderful, relaxing experience.
