Charlie & Glynis are perfect hosts helpful, friendly but unobtrusive. The gite is very homely and has everything you need.It is in a tranquil setting surrounded by fields. You can watch the cows, buzzards and other birds while sitting in the lovely garden. As well as a walk up the path to feed the chickens.Good location for visiting Dday coast as well as the bay of Mt St Michael with its many costal towns. Plenty of inland Towns and chateau within an easy drive. An ideal peaceful base for two

Nuthatch Cottage is in a lovely peaceful spot but near a lot of interesting places. It is equipped with everything you could possibly need and the owners go out of their way to be helpful and welcoming. Their local knowledge and recommendations of places to visit and where to eat are extremely useful. A great base for a holiday in Normandy.
This is our second visit to the Nuthatch and it was just as good as the last time. The Gite is very clean, comfortable and well equipped for a couple. The setting is very tranquil & idyllic at the end of a lane, no passing traffic, just the cows in the meadow and the swallows darting into the store. At night there is no light pollution so if the skies are clear you can see all the stars in the universe( fantastic)
Charlie & Glynis are warm, very friendly and generous hosts, even when you manage to lock yourself out of the gite!
The closest town is Villedieu-les-Poêles-Rouffigny which is 20 minutes away by car, with supermarkets, restaurants etc and places like Bayeaux, Granville, Mont St Michel, Dinan and the DDay beaches are about one hours drive away. Most of the D roads are relatively quiet with smooth tarmac and the ferryport at Caen is about 75 minutes away.
We look forward to returning next year, Ian & Linda Howatson
