Enjoyed our stay
Very well located: close to the sea, a bit secluded and yet the bakery still within walking distance. Cap La Hague itself has a great, varied coastline that is good for hiking and there are good restaurants. The heating didn't work at the beginning of our stay and despite the rainy weather, Philippe came immediately to get everything working again. Overall, we had a wonderful time in this very special place.

Fantastic little cottage in a wonderful and unspoilt location. Amazing coastline. Would recommend you come out of season as you get virtually the whole of Normandy to yourself.

Great week in Normandy.
Lovely cosy gite in a superb location, with pretty grounds, and on the coast. Stunning view toward the sea, best we've had. Very handy for a lot of beaches, places to visit and things to do. Easy access to east or west coast, and fairly simple to by-pass Cherbourg to travel anywhere. Attractions of Cherbourg on hand for visiting with ease. Peaceful, with beautiful scenery nearby, yet with a good choice of supermarkets, and restaurants. The path up to the gite was ok for us, but may pose a problem for some. We're certainly fitter after our daily exercise ! Definitely one of the best holidays we've had in France, out of many.
