The perfect location for the start of our D-Day Beaches trip. A country setting close to Utah Beach, and both the rooms & staff were great. This place is Normandy. Be sure to make both dinner & breakfast reservations for the full experience.

The property is hidden in the trees, in a quiet pretty location on a side road, yet 5 minutes easy drive to Utah beach and Museum. The rooms were nice and bathrooms modern and excellent. Restaurant was fantastic, good people and great food. I loved breakfast! I loved the views and the serenity. Sitting in the courtyard with a glass of wine and been sausge they grew as evening came was perfect.
