French manor luxury

The manor is beautiful and comfortable with well-appointed open rooms and a functional well-supplied kitchen. We had 5 couples in the manor and each had their own sleeping space and bathroom for privacy and comfort. The large indoor and outdoor gathering places will insure togetherness for your family/group, yet private quarters for a good night's sleep. The outdoor space is fenced-in and huge, so your little ones could play safely in an enclosed area while you relax on the patio. We used the manor as a base camp for daily outings to the Normandy beaches and charming towns in the area. Returning in time for dinner or a lit fire in the dining room rounded out each beautiful day. The hostess and host were knowledgable and helpful, assisting when asked, and available at all times for questions. They arranged a wonderful French dinner for us at a local restaurant called "The Marronier" which is 3 minutes from the manor. I would highly recommend the manor for your family or b usiness event. Everyone will feel the warmth of this historic building, but will have a cozy night in their charming bedroom.

Magnifique propriété au calme , idéale pour un séjour en famille

Tout était parfait de l'accueil aux petits détails qui ont rendu notre séjour très agréable. Le manoir était très propre et les chambres avaient un charme fou. C'est un lieu idéal pour un séjour en famille ou entre amis: beaucoup d'espace, des jeux pour les enfants, une cuisine parfaitement agencée, un vrai lieu convivial. Nous reviendrons avec plaisir.

Beautiful restored manor house and gardens

Really beautiful Manor House - every room was restored and decorated to perfection. Very comfortable sofas and beds and great showers. We loved the library. The kitchen had everything you might need including a huge Smeg oven. The gardens are gorgeous and huge with stone walls giving a great sense of privacy. It was very relaxing And a great place to get away from it all. Highly recommended.

manoir de charme pour break au vert entre amis

très bon séjour entre amis dans ce manoir spacieux et décoré avec goût. les enfants ont aimé les grands espaces, le jardin, les nombreux jeux mis à disposition et les vaches présentes sur le terrain voisin. Et les grands ont savouré le caractère paisible des lieux, les possibilités de visites/balade alentours et les bons produits de la ferme des propriétaires. Un excellent choix!

Un séjour inoubliable.

Nous sommes 8 québécois à avoir séjourné au Manoir pendant 9 jours. C'est un endroit magnifique et qui correspond exactement à ce que l'on voit sur le site. C'est un bâtiment exceptionnel qui convient parfaitement à un groupe de plusieurs personnes. Le village d'Amayé sur Orne où se trouve le manoir est tout à fait charmant. Les propriétaires, Mireille et Étienne Duval ont rénové ce beau Manoir il y a quelques années et aiment raconter son histoire. Si vous planifiez visiter la Normandie, c'est l'endroit tout désigné. Nous avons du le quitter à regret. Diane Beaudoin Ville de Québec, Canada

wonderful home

We spent three and a half weeks in Germany and France and this was our very favorite place to stay of all. As others have said the pictures don't really do it justice. There really isn't anything to say other than it is great and i would book this place again if i am ever in Normandy.

Beautiful manor, beautiful garden, great location for touring the Normandy region.

This property truly exceeded our expectations, even though they were high to begin with based on photos and reviews. Madame Duvall was a gracious host, giving us tips on touring the area and responding to our booking questions very quickly. We even visited the family farm market to purchase duck breast got our send off dinner. Everyone was impressed and everything was wonderful. Five stars!
