    We spent a wonderful week at Maison Le Refuge Portais as a family of four. The location is truly special - set next to the old lighthouse, quiet and elevated, with stunning views over the town, the harbor, and out to the sea, yet only a short walk from the center of Port-en-Bessin. The house had everything we needed, including a garden and a large terrace, with plenty of space for everyone. While not everything inside was brand new, it was all well maintained and perfectly usable.The house also proved to be a great base for exploring Normandy: Port-en-Bessin itself offers restaurants, small shops, and a large fish market; Bayeux and Omaha Beach are just around the corner; and destinations such as Cherbourg and Giverny make for excellent day trips. All in all, it was a perfect holiday week for us!

    We had a fantastic week here. Location is everything and this didn’t disappoint. Right on a lovely cycle track to Omaha beach (which was beautiful) and right next to the town with a great fishing bustle, lots of restaurants and some souvenir shops. A great centre to explore the history of the area as well as be active.

    Lovely cottage on top of the hill. The village is situated between the D-Day landing beaches. We rented towels and bedding, which was great. The cottage was well equiped. It was lovely.

    The house was comfortable, well-maintained and in a great location. Jean-Luc and Astrid were responsive to every request. We throughly enjoyed our visit.
    10.0 / 10.0
    The house was a nice walking distance to shops in Port-en-Bessin (although up and down the hill into the town made for good exercise). Quiet. Nice hiking from the house. Astrid, the property manager, was wonderful. She was very responsive to our communication and also very aware of the covid measures (she always wore a mask when at the house during check-in or check-out or when exchanging towels and linens. We especially enjoyed fresh seafood from the market on the pier and the public markets on Saturday.

    Every aspect of this house suited us ideal for two adults. Superb location with short walk to the lovely port and free fireworks every Friday evening. Only one problem? That driveway entrance needs levelling out as I scraped my car underneath even being very careful. Would stay again anytime 😊
    8.0 / 10.0
    A lovely property on the edge of the town. A steep walk up the hill but well worth it for the views (note mainly from up starts windows). One word of caution - if driving a large car or one with limited ground clearance - the road is narrow and the drive way tight. The entrance first has a small kerb then loose material before a raised ridge of concrete. This is badly worn on both sides making access difficult. Loose large stones had been put to assist by previous people but one of these stood up and badly damaged a car panel when we arrived. Suggest parking just up the hill by the golf course (20m). Apart from that a great stay! We would recommend to friends and family.
