The manoir had such fabulous character, an incredibly beautiful building in stunning countryside. All with really kind hosts and a delicious breakfast.

A little chilly in the bedrooms, but plenty of blankets and we slept well.

They made a fire in the fireplace in the salon for us to sit to after diner. Breakfast was very good.

A welcome drink on arrival would have been nice .The sitting room was lovely but it would be nice to have a drink there - perhaps an honesty bar or coffee machine. Not told how to contact anyone if we needed anything - lightbulb went one evening- no one around. Some might find it rather shabby in places … bathroom tiling needed regrouting and some chairs needed reupholstering for instance. Nuisance to have to drive into Bayeux for food …didn’t seem to be anywhere nearby to eat.

Fabulous old Normandy Manor House beautifully furnished in a country house style with many antiques. Endearingly old fashioned in some ways. Fantastic breakfast attentively served. Lovely sitting room and huge grounds . Lovely rural views . Very Quiet. Very nice hostess. Comfortable bed in very spacious bedroom .

Nothing could have been better.

I have been visiting France for over 25 years and this was, without doubt, the best stay ever. A great welcome rom the owner with an outstanding French breakfast every morning. The bedroom was huge and comfortable and the location was extemely quiet and peaceful.

Bathrooms need renovation. Stairs could not be for everyone. Not a problem for us. A swimming pool would be a plus, the property has enough space to build it in a separate location without impacting in the main house atmosphere.

A beautiful old manoir, well conserved very close to most attractions in the area. As a family we have two room with a shared bathroom that was very convenient. Breakfast is good. Being an small hotel is also a plus, not many people around. I will come back if I can. Owner is very friendly.

The description is not accurate. I rented the Moat house. It is very large and can sleep up to 12. There were only 4 in my party. It is stated that it is all one one level. It is not. There are at least 10 steps to the 4 bedrooms upstairs. One on the bedrooms has 3 step-down to the bathroom. Not a good thing to do at night for 80 year olds! The heat was not on and it was in the 50's at night and the lower 60's in the day. The house needs a complete scrubbing and some paint. Even the antiques needed to be cleaned and oiled. It does have 3 full bathrooms, and a 1/2 bath, but they were probably put in about 1980. They could use updating. They say they offer toiletries. We had hand soap and dish soap in the kitchen. No shampoo, conditioner or lotion. The towels were clean and folded on the bed but nothing matched. This is not a big negative but just one more negative. I realize that this is a very old facility and not easy to maintain, but a through cleaning would help. And the price was a little higher than I thought it should be after seeing the property.

Breakfast was good, served In a beautiful room. Yogurt, bread, fruit, juice and coffee, a typical French breakfast. Served very nicely. Love the old 'manor look'. The manor, originally built in the 15 century, is about 15 min from Bayeux, a good central location for touring Normandy. The Moat house has some very beautiful antique pieces. The kitchen looked fully equipped, although I only used the coffee pot. The owner was very kind and helpful, and she spoke English. I felt very safe out in the country. When I asked questions prior to arriving, I got a quick, email response.

We had an infestation of flying ants in one of the bedrooms (we are talking thousands and they found their way out the room and into other rooms on 1st floor) The host was quick to come over and spray Raid in the room/vacuum the dead flies up. However, the room was then unusable so one of our party had to sleep on sofa. The host couldn't see a problem for us, as we were a group of 10 and there were still 10 sleeping places, if we were prepared to have young children sharing with adults etc. We were then told the room would be fumigated the next day but this didn't appear to have happened as we had the same issue on the 2nd night. The Host wanted us to use the Raid again and suggested there was nothing to be done as it was the weather. We requested a room in the hotel for the family member who had been displaced to the sofa and she obliged. Such a shame as the accommodation was great on the whole. However, the situation with the bugs was not well handled and the host just couldn't grasp that when on holiday, you don't want to spend 2 hours+ picking up dead flies. Also, the description of the property on booking.com is inaccurate. There are lots of stairs (booking.com says the accommodation is on one floor) and the number of beds/configuration is also wrong. This wasn't an issue for our group but worth bearing in mind if you are looking for a specific set up or step free accommodation.

Excellent location and setting, plenty of space and loved the private garden for the children to play in. House was well equipped and the beds were comfortable. Alix, the host, was welcoming and showed us around. She was available throughout the stay for any help/advice.
