Claire and Peter D and family from Newcastle - July 2014
We have had a wonderful week in this lovely gite. Rosie and Simon have been super hosts and Ben and Tom have been great playmates for H and E.
Normandy itself has so many wonderful sites - we especially enjoyed Falaise Castle and Deauville beach. What an amazing holiday! Thank you! x

Harry and Maggie S, Derbyshire - July 2014
We loved walking along the dark lanes criss-crossing the countryside and all the wildlife - flowers, trees, birds and other critters, also the unpolluted darkness of night. This is a delightful, comfortable and well-equipped gite and was perfect for our needs. You and the boys have been good company. Maggie and I are evens at petanque so we really need to return for a play-off!

"A lovely cosy gite. Although the weather not great we got the opportunity to visit some amazing sites, Le Mont St Michel, Bayeux, Omaha Beach and Caen. J and C will miss Tom and Ben dearly and are already planning our return. The Victoria Sponge is a MUST!"

John and Jane B, Braintree - May 2104Lovely gîte, beautiful countryside, with warm and friendly hosts. You get the whole family: Rosie and Simon; also Tom and Ben. They boys made us feel welcome. Lots of places to visit including Clécy, which is a must do!
The relaxing, chill-out surroundings provide many walks, with great variety of plants, landscape, birds, butterflies etc.
A really children friendly place - especially for our granddaughter, Honey.
Thanks for a lovely stay. We will be back!
And from their daughter and son-in law who stayed for part of the two weeks:
Wonderful relaxing holiday, lots of sun early in our week, great for Rosie's wonderful BBQ pack. Facilities were wonderful especially for our energetic 2 year old. Honey loved Tom and Ben's energy and most of all the trampoline and the animals. Rosie, Simon and the boys are charming hosts, an added bonus the boys being rugby fans, don't forget Northampton Saints guys, large supply for England Rugby Team. We would love to revisit your wonderful place and will. Already envious of future guests. We are now off back to the UK, liberating some of those French wines on the way!!! x
Robert, Michelle and Honey, Northampton
Happy and relaxed, thanks!

Famille Charra, Paris - Feb 2014
We've absolutely loved our break here! It was a last minute decision with no regrets. Thank you so much Rosie, Simon, Ben and Tom for such a warm welcome. The children have loved it. We can thoroughly recommend Rosie's lasagne and pavlova, delicious! So are the biscuits and dandelion jam. The zoo at Jurques was a big hit as was the castle at Falaise. We recommend Colleville-Montgomery beach near Ouistreham and the Ferme St Hubert restaurant in Colleville. Hope to be back soon!

Second time visit also and such a lovely way to spend the new year! Winter in your eco-gite is wonderful too. A retreat.
Thanks for everything, and special memories of New Year's Eve, including record breaking fireworks :)!
An inspirational family, gite and farm, and region.
Tom and Ben - you are a pleasure to have around, and the girls will miss you, as will I.
And thanks for being Rosie and Simon as always. See you next New Year! xxx
