We have just returned from a truly fabulous stay at Yvonne and Paul’s cottage. The attention to detail of both the conversion and the luxury decor is incredible. There is nothing that this cottage lacks. Paul and Yvonne were amazing hosts; there when we wanted advice/a chat about the area and local events but also very respectful of our privacy. The location is perfect for exploring the area as well as just relaxing in the beautiful garden or watching the log burner while roasting local chestnuts with a glass of wine! We are already in the process of booking two stays next year!

The cottage is really wonderful and even more spacious than we thought. Yvonne and his husband Paul are the best hosts we've ever found so far, as they can cope with every need you might have at the speed of light! The position is in the wonderful, charming countryside of northern France and this aspect is particularly important, because during our 15 day stay we could visit many many places both in Brétagne and in Normandy, starting from Honfleur, Deauville, Trouville, Caen on the coast to big cities like Nantes, Rennes, Le Mans and Paris (to go to Paris we suggest you reserve in advance for the TGV leaving from Laval which is at about 45/50 mins from the cottage: it will take just 1 hour and 20 mins to be at the Gare de Montparnasse and enjoy "la ville lumière". If you don't like to travel much, the place is anyway ideal for visits in the villages nearby, such as Lassay les Chateaux, where there's a wonderful castle to be visited.....if you're allergic to your car when you're on holiday, the cottage offers a very nice and well furnished kitchen with all the appliances you need, a big hall with a chimney (we didn't use it because it was August), 2 spacious bedrooms and a big bathroom, but we think you'll appreciate staying outside in the garden under the gazebo, have breakfast, lunch, dinner outside on the table, or maybe relax on the chaise-longues supplied or - simpler - on the grass, while smiling cows (especially in the evening) will come to say hallo to the guests :). We don't have children, but we think that the place could be marvelous for them, both to play and make acquaintance with farm animals (only if wished, of course....all animals are kept separated from the cottage). In one word: a holiday we didn't expect to be so relaxing, in such a wonderful place, with so kind hosts, offering you a lot of opportunities, both if you prefer to stay at home and cook the recipes you have no time to prepare at home and if you'd rather visit all the north of France and Paris. Il cottage è davvero meraviglioso e ancor più spazioso di quanto pensassimo. Yvonne e suo marito Paul sono i migliori padroni di casa che abbiamo mai trovato finora, poiché possono far fronte a ogni vostra esigenza alla velocità della luce! La posizione è nella meravigliosa e affascinante campagna del nord della Francia e questo aspetto è particolarmente importante, perché durante il nostro soggiorno di 15 giorni abbiamo potuto visitare molti luoghi sia in Bretagna che in Normandia, a partire da Honfleur, Deauville, Trouville, Caen sulla costa, per arrivare in grandi città come Nantes, Rennes, Le Mans e Parigi (per andare a Parigi consigliamo di prenotare in anticipo il TGV in partenza da Laval che dista circa 45/50 minuti dal cottage: ci vorranno solo 1 ora e 20 min per essere alla Gare de Montparnasse e godersi "la ville lumière". Se non vi piace viaggiare molto, il posto è comunque l'ideale per le visite nei paesi vicini, come Lassay les Chateaux, dove c'è un meraviglioso castello da visitare.....se, invece, siete allergici all'auto quando siete in vacanza, il cottage offre una cucina molto carina e ben arredata con tutti gli elettrodomestici necessari, un grande ingresso con camino (non l'abbiamo usato perché era agosto), 2 ampie camere da letto e un grande bagno, ma pensiamo apprezzerete molto star fuori in giardino sotto il gazebo, fare colazione, pranzo, cena fuori a tavola, o magari rilassarsi sulle chaise-longue in dotazione o - più semplicemente - sull'erba, sorridendo alle mucche (soprattutto in la sera) che verranno a salutare gli ospiti :). Non abbiamo bambini, ma pensiamo che il posto possa essere meraviglioso per loro, sia per giocare che per fare conoscenza con gli animali della fattoria (solo se lo desiderate, ovviamente....tutti gli animali sono tenuti separati dal cottage). In una parola: una vacanza che non ci aspettavamo fosse così rilassante, in un posto così meraviglioso, con padroni di casa così gentili, che ci ha offerto tante occasioni, sia che preferiate rimanere a casa e cucinare le ricette che non avete tempo di preparare quando siete a casa, sia che preferiate visitare tutto il nord della Francia e Parigi. Le cottage est vraiment magnifique et encore plus spacieux que nous le croyions. Yvonne et son mari Paul sont les meilleurs hôtes que nous ayons jamais trouvés jusqu'à présent, car ils peuvent répondre à tous vos besoins à la vitesse de l'éclair ! L'emplacement est dans la merveilleuse et charmante campagne du nord de la France et cet aspect est particulièrement important, car pendant notre séjour de 15 jours, nous avons pu visiter de nombreux endroits à la fois en Bretagne et en Normandie, à partir de Honfleur, Deauville, Trouville, Caen sur la côte vers les grandes villes comme Nantes, Rennes, Le Mans et Paris (pour aller à Paris nous vous conseillons de réserver à l'avance le TGV au départ de Laval qui est à environ 45/50 min du cottage : il ne vous faudra qu'une heure et 20 minutes environ pour arriver à la Gare de Montparnasse et profiter de "la ville lumière". Si vous n'aimez pas beaucoup voyager, l'endroit est tout de même idéal pour des visites dans les villages voisins, comme Lassay les Châteaux, où il y a un magnifique château à visiter..... si, par contre, vous êtes allergique à votre voiture lorsque vous êtes en vacances, le cottage offre une cuisine très agréable et bien meublée avec tous les appareils nécessaires, un grand hall avec cheminée (nous ne l'avons pas utilisée car c'était en Août), 2 grandes chambres à lits et une grande salle de bain, mais nous pensons que vous apprécierez aussi Vous relaxer dehors dans le jardin sous le gazebo, prendre le petit déjeuner, le déjeuner, le dîner sur la table dans le jardin, ou peut-être Vous détendre sur les chaises longues fournies ou - plus simplement -

Yvonne and Pauls house is really beautiful and it is very well placed for sightseeings in the surroundings, such as Domfront, beautiful medieval town or Bagnols. But also very nice hiking options are not far. Would the rivers had more water we would have gone canoeing as well. The house itself is very spacy and nicely furnished. The kitchen has everything you might have ever thought of. Only the kitchen is very dark, but this didn't matter for us as we always stayed on the terrace, which has an amazing view. Very relaxing and calm. We highly recommend this place for people who love the calm countryside. Also for children it should be a good place to stay as there is space and the hens, ducks and the pig are around.

We booked a last minute getaway for our family which includes two boys, 6.5 and 3.5 years old. We found Yvonne’s place to be very relaxing and extremely well-cared for. She and Paul were great hosts; very good at communication, very attentive to our needs and helpful with suggestions Re local tourist attractions. A very well maintained house with everything you need. Good WiFi as well. We’d definitely go back again. Highly recommended.

We had a really really good time in Yvonne and Paul's cottage. They are so kind! Their house was so comfotable and beautiful.Also we met their lovely dogs, a cat and even a pony. My 7 year old son was so happy that he could run all over the grasses, chasing the butterflies around the house. The place is calm and peaceful. We enjoyed the beautiful atmosphere of countryside. We want to go there again! Highly recommended!
