Charming, airy self-contained renovated one bedroomed gite . As one of our guests described it as 'an upside down house' Cosy bedroom for peaceful nights and open plan living room with dual facing views of the countryside to sit and relax. With stunning views of the sunrise (if you're up!) or the sunset, watching the world go by and relaxing in the stillness and peace. Self contained kitchen/dining area with cooker, oven, microwave and dishwasher. Plenty of space for preparing bread, wine and cheese or to cook meals at your leisure. Quiet, with its own outside area for sitting with a glass of something planning your next adventure in the area or reminiscing about the day's adventure. Smoke detector in place for your safety. The area is rich in history ,from William the Conqueror to WW2. Mortain-Bocage played an important part in the counter-offensive and this is commemorated every year. If scenery and countryside are important then the gite is situated at the edge of a national park, offering fabulous walks and cycle trips on the Voie Verte . The beautiful stunning beaches for Granville, Julloville and St Pair Sur Mer are an hour away. Mortain Bocage has cafes, boulangeries and other amenities to make your stay memorable. The Grande & Petite Cascades are the largest waterfalls in this part of France and offer beautiful walks and photo opportunities. La Petite Chapelle is worth a visit ,along with Hill 314 (this still has evidence from the counter attack in 1944). With relatively quiet roads, driving further afield, through beautiful scenery, is a great joy. Watching the endless fields and driving through peaceful villages, you can go back in time and wonder what stories could be told in the area.

The gite is a professional conversion of an old barn into an upside down house. Everything in the property is of a high standard. There is an adjacent orchard for guests to use and great views from the living room. The hosts are nearby and available for advice but not intrusive. The town and area are very interesting and good for walking. Those with impaired mobility would find the steps and stairs difficult but otherwise it is a wonderful stay for singles or couples. ##### Nicholas M.
