A great break!

This gite was perfect for our holiday, it is in a fabulous location, quiet but close (5 minutes) to a large town but in a beautiful rural setting. Lots of attractions nearby, amusement parks for the children, great beaches and close enough to the Normandie D Day sights should you feel like a day trip. The hosts were excellent, attentive when required but otherwise left us to enjoy our break. If you need a gite with plenty of space for a disabled guest, then this is your place!

Séjour magnifique

Nous avons étés accueillis par le mari de Julie, un hôte d'une gentillesse extrême que nous avons énormément apprécié. Le cidre bio, sans additif et fait maison qu'il nous a offert, était excellent. Le logis était propre et très agréable ; surtout il était très bien situé pour visiter les grands sites touristiques de la partie est de la Bretagne et de la partie ouest de la Normandie. À savoir, Le mont St Michel, Saint-Malo, le château de Fougères, le moulin de la See, etc. Nous avons apprécié l’absence de contraintes sur les locataires, ce qui est rare, et l’environnement, au contact de la nature et d’animaux de ferme. Nous vous recommandons sincèrement cette location.

Normandie von der schönsten Seite

Rustikaler Charme, sehr ruhig gelegen, aber viele Sehenswürdigkeiten und viel Lebensart in einem Umkreis von 5-30 Minuten mit dem Auto zu erreichen. Die Vermieter sind herzlich und einfach wundervoll. Sehr zu empfehlen.

location très agréable, propriétaires anglais très aimables

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour au milieu de la campagne, avec un entourage d'animaux (chiens, moutons, poules, chèvres et vaches à proximité) avec une magnifique vue. Nous avons mangé dans de la belle vaisselle anglaise. Par contre, il n'y a plus de trampoline, ni toboggan pour les enfants comme annoncés sur votre site Abritel.

Peaceful Accessible Property

Well appointed, everything required for a wheelchair user. Comfortable living room. Friendly informative hosts live next door with 2 friendly wee dogs that came to visit daily. Kitchen scraps fed to the chickens and goats added to our enjoyment. The gite is a good position for visiting Normandy, Northern coast is achievable too.

Une semaine très agréable, au calme dans une belle campagne normande. La maison est spacieuse et commode ; nous avons bien profité du jardin où c'était un plaisir de se relaxer. Les propriétaires étaient très sympathiques et attentifs. Un séjour qui est passé trop vite! On espère y retourner!

Dejligt ophold ude på landet

Skøn feriebolig med masser af plads til familien - og de engelske værter bor next door. Autentisk og hyggelig atmosfære udenfor lille landsby. Dyr på gården og stor have med græsplæne og numighed for grill.

It is een good house for someone with a handicap.

A good house in a quiet surrounding and also for someone with a handicap a pleasant home. You have a bathroom with al the facility's you need and enough space to move with a wheelchair of rollator.

Beautiful rustic converted barn . Wonderful out door space . Ideal for children.

We had a wonderful time and we loved the animals . James and Julie we friendly and welcoming. The lower level was very accessible for my son's wheelchair unfortunately the shower was not due to the design. Toilet ideal . Top tip take a portable shower chair . It's fine if you are not confined to a wheelchair. Definitely wI'll be returning. But will be bringing fly spray as they were a pain due to heat and animals but can't be helped

Spotless,and so peaceful!

Hi, We stayed here for 10 nights in mid June 2018. As a party of four,all comfortably over 60,we were looking for a peaceful,quiet holiday. We got it,in bucketfulls,and i doubt if there are better hosts than James and Julie Foster. It is 7 minutes to the the supermarket,a good sized LeClerc,where we stocked up every couple of days. We loved it,and it worked out very well for my wife,who is wheelchair bound with Parkinsons. As for the weather,we had sun,sun,and more sun every day-not one drop of rain. We will be backBob,Frances,Sheila and Phyllis.

Lovely quiet cottage

Good clear instructions to find Gite from Owners. It was clean and tidy and suited our needs with the owners very close by if needed. Disappointed that the local restaurant with the great reviews was closed so we will have to return to try it again! Thanks for the loan of a bike too which we used every day when we were out and about.

About the host

Hosted by Julie Foster

Host profile image
We are young family who decided to emigrate to enjoy a new way of life. We have 2 daughters 16 and 12, who love meeting new people. James is a builder and I teach English at the local primary school. We love food, gardening cooking and socialising. We are always available to help you achieve the best from your holiday; to advise on what to see, do, and experience while you're here. We are all fluent French speakers, should any problems arise during your stay, rest assured, we can be there for you. As a family we will go that extra mile.

Why they chose this property

Our desire to see our children grow in the country, in safety with the dream of eventually being self-sufficient food wise, was the driving force behind our decision to move here.

Les Cours is the perfect holiday destination if you enjoy peace and quiet and like "getting away from it all" But still want to have easy access to all the usual amenities that a lively town can offer. We are on the borders of Brittany and Maine with easy access to the Motorway. From here you cant head directly to Avraches, Caen, Rennes and Paris.

There are several Greenways in proximity for hikers and cyclists to enjoy. It is possible to cycle near to Le Mont saint Michel on these disused railway lines.



What makes this property unique

Whilst staying at Les Cours we can guarantee a peaceful stay where you can just relax and enjoy the view, visit many of the fabulous local tourist attractions or travel a little further afield and see the incredible Normandy beaches and the Bayeux Tapestry for example. Be aware that an hour's drive in France, does not in any way resemble an hour's drive in the UK. The roads are a pleasure to use with the absence of traffic.
