A former boulangerie, we have converted it into a sweet little cottage. downstairs is the lounge with dining table, TV DVD and SKY free to view leading into compact kitchen with oven 5 ring gas top, microwave, larder fridge and door through to the shower room, loo etc. From the kitchen sink you look directly out to the best view of the garden - the pond with it's fish, water lillies & hundreds of black & green frogs... quite often goosey goose too! Upstairs is a double bedroom... but please not the ceiling is sloping so anyone that is very tall this may not be for you! I'm sorry but unsuitable for children or babies...
Our sweet little cottage that used to be the old village boulangerie, roses round the door! Set within the grounds of large country house in 3 acres, both have your own separate entrance and completely self contained... if you don't want to see us you don't! Within 5 minutes of Utah Beach and set within the Park Naturel Cotentin & Bessin. We are ideal for long country or beach walks, there are rivers and canals, bird watching, the river Douve only 3km from us has a boat trip through the Marshes to see Cranes, Marsh Harriers, Egrets just to name a few species. It's possible from here to go to Paris for a day out or Jersey. Bayeaux half an hour away, Caen, now that's a city worth exploring where William the Conqueror hailed from and is buried.... St Vaast a small version of Honfleur 20 minutes away, the real Honfleur 2 hours...the problem here is there is too much to do!
This is a perfect place for a couple exploring the area who like peace and tranquility... as long as you like country noises then this is great. Stavros the donkey can't help himself when he sees someone - he brays, he's not ours but is totally convinced he belongs to us! We also have a flock of chickens, quite a few cockerels (that chant in the morning), as well as a goose, they have complete freedom to wander over all our land, our freshly laid eggs are available. As well as that we do have 3 small dogs and quite a few cats... none of which are allowed in the apartment or the cottage - but they all love visitors - so before you decide to come please be aware they will expect you to say hello when you come and go or are in the garden! Madge our Jack Russell does not understand being ignored. We're very close to the motorway (can't hear it) equidistant 8kms to Carentan, Ste Mere Eglise and Utah Beach. We're in the heart of the American sector for WW2 buffs
