Great Savings on Brittany Ferries - as we advertise with Brittany ferries we can offer a 20% discount on bookings. This special offer is only available via their Holiday France Direct website and with our unique customer number. If you are planning to come and visit us please check the availability page and complete the booking form. We will confirm the provisional booking and give you the customer number to check the cost and make your ferry booking. We look forward to hearing from you.

Excellent value for money - we appreciate that the current poor exchange rate has made coming to Normandy more expensive, so to help we have kept our prices the same for 2010 (the fourth year in a row we have not had an increase) and taken the hit ourselves - so you pay in sterling and we accept fewer euros when we need to transfer the money over here! Remember, this includes all electricity, linen and towels, so no hidden extras. We have also reduced the cost for the first two weeks in July to £400 pw.

High Quality Home Cooking - after a long journey at the start of your holiday or a full day out exploring this glorious contryside, you can enjoy a delicious four course meal expertly prepared by your hosts.
