Château d'Argouges, Bayeux, Best D-Day Vacation Home with Heated Swimming Pool

Chateau d'Argouges transports its visitors into the novels of Maupassant and Flaubert. This fully restored 19th century Chateau has eight spacious rooms w/ensuite bathrooms, an elegant sitting room w/fireplace, pool room, delightful dining-room (15), cozy library, large, light, fully refurbished kitchen and big game room (toddlers to teens); gym & heated swimming pool open between mid-may to mid-octobre.

Excellent fish restaurants close by or stroll around the local markets to shop for a memorable feast back at the Chateau. You can buy the freshest oysters and seafood at picturesque Port en Bessin (7km) and try the local Calvados, ciders, and Pommeau. Excellent trails for hiking & biking.

Wonderful Chateau
Our family thoroughly enjoyed staying at Chateau d'Argouges! The chateau is beautiful and well cared for. The landscaped grounds are great as well. Be mindful of an additional check-out fee for housekeeping and additional taxes that are not included in the VRBO costs. Overall, we loved our stay here.

Delightful stay in historic Normandy
12 adults shared a wonderful 8 bedroom Chateau in the Normandy region. The historic property is well modernized with most baths en-suite. Great country kitchen, large refrigerator, and all located within 30 minutes of most of the key D-Day sites. No complaints, would rent again.

En flott ferieuke for storfamilien.
Chateau d`Argouges var et flott, rolig sted for en avslappende ukes-ferie med storfamilien på 16. Huset, 8 romslige værelser med bad, fasiliteter som basseng, treningsrom, oppholdsrom, samt store grønne arealer til uteaktiviteter inkl en boule-bane var ideelle. Kjøkkenet fungerte fint, om enn litt liten til så mange, og komfyren kunne trenge en oppgradering.

Picturesque Chateau
This chateau is located in a beautiful setting, calm and peaceful. It is perfect for a large family, with many bedrooms & en-suite bathrooms. We also enjoyed the swimming pool, game room and garden-with a trampoline & swing set.

Stunningly fabulous chateau
The chateau is fabulous, comfortable and just beautiful inside, I’d describe it as welcoming and peaceful. Grounds are lovely, lots of space to relax, play, BBQ and enjoy time with friends and family. The pool are was lovely and the pool perfect , including a pool bar and BBQ fir you to set up and use. Thibault is on-site if you need anything , the area is lovely for cycling and you are close to all the history & lovely Normandy villages. Highly recommend arranging Francois the chef to come in one night for a special meal - was all a lovely, memorable experience. We had a super 5 days , and wouldn’t hesitate to come back. Highly recommended.

Perfect
We choose this property to celebrate my husbands 40th birthday, and the whole experience was just wonderful. The Chateau is as beautiful as it looks, each room has its own en-suite so plenty of room and privacy for everyone. The pool area was wonderful and we were so lucky that we had the weather to enjoy it. We travelled as 4 groups, our own group consisting of 2 children, age 6 years and 10 months. There was a high chair, travel cot with good mattress and even baby change mats available. Also the trampoline was a hit with my 6 year old. We didn’t find the toys in the cupboard in the playroom until the last day, so that’s a tip to have a look in the cupboard. My only regret is not having longer at the property. We would definitely book to stay here again.

Amazing property and location
I can’t say enough about Thibault and his chateau. Our group of 13 had a wonderful stay! The chateau was clean and spacious. Our kids & teenagers enjoyed the pool, trampoline, snooker table, and game room. A highlight was hiring Francois, at Thibault’s recommendation, to cook for us one night. An amazing experience! It was also a treat to have both a washer and dryer to use. The property is very conveniently located for all D Day museums, sites, and activities. We will definitely stay here again when we return to Normandy!

Wonderful time in Normandy
Our group of 3 families (14 people) had a wonderful time in Normandy at Chateau d’Argouges. Great location for Omaha beach and DDay tours and Bayeux. Kids had a blast on the trampoline and pool while the adults enjoyed wine in the evenings.

Excellent stay
We had a great stay in this historic chateau, which we used as a base to explore Normandy. We had a mix of adults and teenagers in our 12 person group, and the chateau had plenty of room to cook, eat, and rest from our activities. Lovely classic house and the gardens and landscaping were classic Normandy. Thibault was always very responsive to our questions. We would stay here again.
