We had an amazing stay at this charming chateau. It is just as pictured, and located in a rural area, yet just a few minutes drive to the village of Isigny-sur-Mer, where you can find everything you need. The beds are comfy and the living space clean and attractive. It is a historic building, but feels solid and safe with its stone construction and huge wood beams. The hosts were spectacular, always available and helpful, and told wonderful stories about the history of the area and the property. We had the run of the chateau and the grounds, and the kids enjoyed watching the ducks in a small pond, and the chickens roaming about were a great source of entertainment. There was also a billiards table, a ping pong table, and fussball to keep them occupied. The hosts dogs loved to play fetch with the kids and greeted us each day like long-lost family. Even though we visited many fascinating places in Normandy each day and spent time on the beach, the kids could not wait to get back to the chateau. Our host, Catherine offers a home-cooked dinner meal for an extra, very reasonable charge, and I highly recommend it. Tender meat slow cooked in a sauce, local vegetables and cheeses and desserts including the local whipped cream. Absolutely fabulous. The only small disappointment was there was no continental breakfast, but a morning trip to the local patisserie provided the best croissants, and we had 2 refrigerators to store whatever we needed to make our own.
