A fantastic stay

A fantastic stay! Fiona and Marc are wonderful hosts. We had already been in contact with them beforehand and were able to clarify everything important via WhatsApp. When we arrived, we were greeted very warmly by both of them. The whole area around the château is beautiful and very well maintained. We stayed in Mews Cottage for 2 weeks. Really quaint and with a lot of attention to detail. When we arrived, the fireplace was already prepared and a bottle of cider was waiting for us in the fridge. Marc immediately gave us lots of good tips about Normandie. We tried out many of them and it was great. We stayed one week as a couple and another week as a group of six. The cottage is big enough and you can manage well with 6 people. The château is conveniently located and you can quickly get to one of the two coasts and also to Cherbourg by car. Carteret beach was the most beautiful for us, but there are also many other beautiful beaches that are easy to reach. Just pay attention to Marc's tips (beaches, sights, restaurants, bars) and it will be great! We were completely satisfied and can 100% recommend a holiday at the Château. Thank you very much Fiona and Marc, we will definitely see each other again. Susi&Alex

Einmal versetzt in die Zeit des 17 Jahrhundert

Eine richtig netter freundlicher Empfang. Der Vermieter hat das Anwesen nicht auf modern und neu getrimmt. Es ist alles wahnsinnig interessant, im alten Stiel erhalten. Sehr ruhige Lage. Das Anwesen liegt ziemlich Mittig und ist dadurch für alle Richtungen offen. Einmalig schöne Gegend. Vielen Dank noch einmal für den schönen Erlebnis Urlaub

Super Gastgeber

Die Woche im Mews Haus des Schlosses hat uns rundum gut getan. Die Gastgeber sind locker und sehr entgegenkommend, selbst bei einer Autopanne schon auf dem Hinweg standen sie uns ohne zu zögern zur Seite. Außerdem informierten Sie uns ausführlich über das Schloss und die ganze Umgebung und ihre immer noch währende Begeisterung für diese Gegend spricht aus ihren Worten. Sehr empfehlenswert und jederzeit gerne wieder :-)

Nostalgische Ferienwohnung in romantischer Lage

Die Ferienwohnung liegt auf dem Gelände eines der romantischen Chateaus der Normandie und besitzt den etwas aus der Zeit gefallenen Charme. Dies setzt sich auch in der Einrichtung fort. Die Gastgeber sind allerdings sehr liebenswürdig.

Great location, Great People

the property has an awesome historic connection with WWII, which we were able to give to the owners. it is also in a little know area of Brix if you are just there for DDAY celebrations as we were, this is an incredible place and has an ambience for everyone. Mark and Fiona are just awesome and so attentive that they are almost tour guide worthy for anyone looking to go around the region in that part of France! we loved our stay and have new friends with Mark and Fiona to boot!! would definitely stay there again.

Très agréable moment

Les propriétaires sont très accueillants et sympathiques. La maison est spacieuse et lumineuse, dans son état d'origine. Le terrain est grand et arboré de très bons goûts. Seul point noir, une mauvaise évacuation des eaux usées, problème que nous avons signalé au propriétaire qui a proposé une intervention rapide. Merci !

Un séjour dans un château plein d'histoires

La maison a tout le confort que nous attendions, nous avons adoré la chambre sous le toit et sa vue imprenable sur les étoiles filantes en cette saison ainsi que la cheminée quand le temps était humide. Nous avons énormément apprécié notre hôte Marc qui est très prévenant. Ses conseils on été très précieux et nous ont permis de visiter et découvrir agréablement la région. Merci Marc !
