Le rêve réalisé

Nous avons vécu un séjour extraordinaire au Lodge du Près des Colombiers ! L’accueil bienveillant et agréable de notre hôte, la paix, le grand espace naturel, la beauté du lieu et la qualité de toute ce qui nous a été mis à disposition. Nous en sommes TRÈS ENCHANTÉS ! Et nous avons décidé d’y revenir à une autre season de l’année pour découvrir le lieu autrement.

Havre de paix

Magnifique propriété, idéale pour se reposer et se ressourcer. La rénovation du lodge est particulièrement bien faite et nous n’avons manqué de rien. Il est vraiment appréciable de pouvoir se réserver un massage sur place et profiter du spa en dessous du logement. Le créneau pour l’utilisation est finalement une bonne idée. Juste un bémol sur la proximité avec la terrasse du logement voisin. Si nous repassons dans les environs, nul doute que nous envisagerons d’y séjourner de nouveau.

Très beau domaine

Superbe domaine et superbe gîte. Nous avons apprécié le jacuzzi et le hammam et en plus sous la neige. Très chouette! Seul bémol, le wifi qui fonctionnait très très mal ...nous avions prévu de la lecture heureusement. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir.

tolles Urlaubsdomizil

Wir waren mit unserem Hund in dem kleinen Häuschen ,welches so ist wie auf den Bildern vorgestellt. Wer die Ruhe und die Natur liebt ist dort genau richtig . Der Spa - Bereich ist auch jederzeit nutzbar und hat zu unserer Erholung beigetragen. Didier ist ein sehr netter und freundlicher Gastgeber . Uns hat es sehr gut gefallen und werden sicherlich wieder kommen.

Sensational accommodation

The accommodation is in a quiet, tranquil setting with views of the surrounding country side all around us. Didier was very welcoming and really helpful in terms of tips for trips out, the best cafes and restaurants to visit and access to local produce. Wished we'd stayed longer, we're definitely going back.

Perfect vacation

Wir haben in 2015 in Le Lodge du Pré des Colombiers unseren Urlaub mit 2 Personen und Hund verbracht. Die Unterkunft ist genauso wie auf den Bildern dargestellt. Es ist wunderschön und morgens hat man schon vom Bett aus eine schöne Sicht über die Wiesen und Wälder. Die Unterkunft ist top ausgestattet, es fehlt an nichts. Angefangen an der gesamten Küchenausstattung, Bettwäsche, Handtüchern, Bademänteln bis zum Feuerholz für den Ofen. Das Anwesen liegt in den Hügeln der Normandie und besteht aus mehreren Häusern. Das Haupthaus wird von Didier Collin bewohnt. Danke hier nochmal für die herzlichen Empfang und die wunderbare Gastfreundschaft. Wir kommen gerne wieder. We stayed in 2015 in Le Lodge du Pré des Colombiers with 2 people and a dog. The accommodation is exactly as shown in the pictures. It is beautiful and in the morning you have a nice view over the meadows and forests. The accommodation is fully equipped, nothing is missing. Starting at the whole kitchen equipment, bed linen, towels, bathrobes to firewood for the stove. The property lies in the hills of Normandy and consists of several houses. The main house is inhabited by Didier Collin. Thanks here again for the warm welcome and the wonderful hospitality. We would definitely come back.
