- a beehive has been installed at the bottom of the garden. To avoid bites, you just need to stay away from and do not obstruct the bees when they are foraging flowers and do not walk barefoot in the garden. They go back to bed in the hive every night.
- a rabbit is in the enclosure: in no case should he go out because he would eat all the flowers
- chickens and a rooster are in the enclosure: you can go talk to them, but do not take them out.
- we did a lot of gardening during coven19 confinement because we are preparing our daughter's wedding : please do not play ball in front of the flower beds and do not cut flowers : just speak to them and admire them. I hope you will respect our garden, I entrust it to you.
Enjoy the french and Normandy pleasures 😃.

    Please please don’t stay here!! Paid for a 10 night stay, could only stay one night as the place was in such a state. Stunk of smoke as had lit open fires inside the house and not cleaned out to mask his hideous smell of damp and mould. Plaster was falling off walls. Bare wires were showing, toilet leaking and large area of wall boxing in toilet falling down and unsafe. Areas boarded up due to ongoing renovations. Infested with insects inside, running up and down walls and floor. Sofas dirty and covered in stains. Foil in cooker to cover dirty racks. No wardrobe space to hang clothes. Broken windows in utility room with hundreds of insects caught in gap between glass. Caution tap in several areas outside where trees had been felled and large holes in ground. Disgusting loungers, pool, seating and table area all rusty and dangerously sharp around edges. Old windows left outside with broken glass in. A total health and safety violation. No rabbits, bees or chickens as advertised. Unsafe trampoline swing, table tennis etc as so dilapidated. Host has only refunded one night! She told me the evening of our arrival that the sun is shining so me and my family of young children and elderly relatives should make the best of it!! Host admits liability of the work that should of been done prior to our arrival but failed to mention. Let us travel to holiday home to find out the state of the place. She denied me cancelling and getting a full refund. Taking further……

    Following a hectic couple of weeks needed a holiday to relax. This certainly was a great place for families with pool, trampoline, table tennis, boules and large garden. Property was well situated for days out in Falaise and surrounding area. This is a large sprawling property but after a day in the house you could find everything you need. If you are looking for a quiet rural retreat to relax then this is perfect.

    The house has everything for a nice relaxing stay. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The outside area is very big and offers a beautiful view on the surrounding area. There are no houses so very private.

    Our family of five (including three boys ages 15, 13, and 9) rented this house for 12 days in June and had a wonderful stay. At the beginning of our trip, the weather was nice and hot, so we were able to enjoy the pool and the large garden. But even when the weather was more Norman, we loved returning to the house after our many day trips as it was comfortable, well provisioned, and conveniently located to a couple of small towns nearby with markets, shops, etc. We'd highly recommend this gorgeous and charming house for large families wishing to visit Normandy and explore its countless attractions.

    This is an extract from a letter I have sent to the property owner: This family holiday, with some members coming from as far away at New Zealand, had been planned well in advance and much anticipated. The blocked drains, which we reported to you on the first night we arrived, meant that we could not use the sinks (both upstairs and downstairs), shower and dishwashers in that side of the property. The lack of useable dishwashers meant that valuable time was spent washing up by hand when we should have been relaxing and enjoying our holiday. The inability to use the shower in that half of the property meant that all nine of us had to share a single shower. As I said at the time, this is just not acceptable. While you did make some efforts to try to fix the drains, the problem remained for the entirety of our stay. This major problem also overshadowed some ‘smaller’ issues, which we didn’t even mention at the time, including an oven that would not go above 150degC and that the toilet above the kitchen which smelt badly of urine and clearly hadn’t been cleaned properly.
