Wonderful Family Holiday with children and toddlers!
A very warm welcome by Sam, the host, awaited us upon arrival at her beautiful home in Vouilly. True to listing details, the ‘luxury guesthouse’, was exceptional in all respects- French country charm at its very best- tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean. Loved the rustic touch of the fully stocked kitchen.
What a peaceful country setting- village church bells ringing; white doves cooing and crickets singing as evening came! Buddy the dog stole our hearts. The enclosed, spacious garden- with a park area- was ideal for our little ones to run around freely and safely. The swimming pool certainly took first prize! Such luxury!
The house is ideally located for visiting the historic D-Day sites: the American Cemetery at Omaha; the military Museum; the landing beaches… ‘Lest we forget!’ The Sunday market at Port en Bessin; the toffee factory at Isigny –sur-Mer and Bayeux all visit ‘musts’ . So much to do, such little time.
Sam is a very friendly and helpful host –nothing was too much for her, even sharing a little of her evening meal, tasty beef cheeks and champagne. What a chef! What a photographer! Her artistic work – family portraits and gilded country scenes are simply outstanding!
Sam’s property is within easy reach of Cherbourg and Ouistreham ports. We highly recommend a visit! We would return!
