"Just pulling out La Ferme des Mares, a charming establishment that provides everything except showers and an apology or discount for providing showers. Should you decide to visit, my advice is that you check the hot water before accepting the keys so that you don't have the unhappy experience of discovering an ice cold shower upon waking the next morning. And no one at the reception to assist you until 8:30 AM when you need to check out."
"The ability to stay in a 13th century castle, beautifully maintained by the family that's had the property for nearly 200 years was exceptional. Breakfast was a delight, with home-made crepes, an assortment of bread and croissants, home-made jams, and plenty of coffee. The calm was serene!"
"Excellent location just 2 minutes from the beautiful beach. Our room was spacious and very clean the a balcony overlooking the street and with a sea view. The morning sunrises were outstanding. The owners and staff are very friendly whilst remaining professional at all times. "
"Had an absolutely amazing time. The room was clean and the shower was good. plenty of instant hot water. The staff were really friendly and in the heatwave our rooms were nice and cool. If you're looking for room service it is not that kind of establishment but for clean, simple, natural fun on the beach, this was truly wonderful. thank you!"
"So the rooms DO NOT HAVE A LIVING ROOM - Only a kitchen and two bedrooms. The place is nice and right on the beach with plenty of space and no dog restrictions. We enjoyed our time just limited space when it rained"
"Our first time staying at a Brit Hotel. The staff, even the ones that did not speak English were extremely friendly and helpful. A special commendation to Elise who went above and beyond to help us.
Room and food very good for the price. Great value for money.
We will definitely stay again if we need accommodation in the area."
"I specifically booked this hotel as on the website the restaurant showed that the restaurant was open on a Sunday evening and served lovely fish.
I even messaged asking to reserve a table. However, after a long drive, on arrival we were told it was not open which was very disappointing and annoying. There was very little choice in the area without driving so our last night in France was a big let down. I am very aware that on Sunday nights in France this can be the case so, after researching...
"Very comfortable guesthouse in a vintage norman hamlet a stone’s throw from beautiful Coutances and chateau des Gratot and western Cotentin wild beaches"

Country house with lake, beach 15min
8/10 Good
"After reading some negative reviews we were not expecting the Gite to be very good. However, it exceeded our expectations. The Gite is old but very roomy and has everything we needed. It is in a quiet location and the hosts next door were quick to answer any questions we had. A few minor changes could make it a bit better...The shower should have been mounted to the wall as just having the shower head in your hand isn't ideal. Also maybe a photo of the front of the property from the road would be good as we struggled to find it and had to ask several neighbours where it could be. The pointer on the website actually points to another property further up the road. And the only clue we had was there was a key in the door. Which you can't see from the road and was hesitant to just open gates and walking around houses to find the correct one.I would stay again and recommend it to anyone staying in Normandy. Thanks"
"A surprise gem, slightly older hotel so unsure when we arrived but the staff are wonderful and the location is great, walkable (20mins down the hill and back up) to the town. A really pleasant stay."
"This place is amazing. Really kind host. Garden is beautiful and has a restaurant at the end that will let you take drinks back to the terrace. Seems newly renovated. Really really nice. "

"Located in the center of Carentan across from the bahnhof, this hotel is easy to find. Parking is available in back or on the street. The room we stayed in #11, has no interior curtains. To have privacy, you close the outdoor shutters and lock them, the close the windows.
No electric outlets in the bathroom or 2nd room where 2 single beds are located.
Rooms are clean, bed was firm. "
"Our stay was perfectly fine. It was a little tighter spacewise than anticipated but we managed. Comfortable bed and good showering facility. Not much space to put anything and a bigger or another couple of towels would be an improvement. Staff were friendly and helpful and with their limited English and my limited French, we sorted everything!!"
"Property I stayed in looked nothing like the pictures I actually found it a depressing place to be on my holiday would definitely not recommend this place "
