There are extensive grounds to walk and play in - a wilderness of fun or tranquillity. Come any season and enjoy the grounds and the cosy house. From sunbathing to cold plunges in the winter. The stone cottage dates back to 1860\. We bought it in 2002 and had it totally renovated so it still holds the beauty of an old building but a modern conversion inside to provide comfort! Bathroom updated and outdoor kitchen area added in 2025. 3 lawned gardens- first in front of river by the house and barn, great for sunbathing, paddling, swimming (bring croc shoes!) and enjoying tranquillity while listening to the river. The river is easily accessible for paddling and play. A plunge spot adjacent to the house has a place to put robe and towels. Second garden is to the side of the house with easy access inside and covered outdoor kitchen/BBQ and food prep facilities with sink and large fridge, drinks island and stools. Infrared heater and raised fire pit available. Ideal for drinks and night time dining. Great for ball games and table tennis. The third runs the length of the grounds alongside the burbling river - lovely for walks, painting, birdwatching. Wildflowers in the long grass and shaded by tees. Regular sightings of otters, red kites, kingfishers and red squirrels. Alive with bird and insect sounds. Record was 12 birds at once on Merlin app! Picnic bench located for last sun and hammock under the trees. Various outdoor furniture sets. Ideal for families wanting to kick back and relax or walkers & painters. Walks through the local woods to the top of Mont de Cerisy -look our for wild boor and deer!

Echt in het binnenland van Normandië. In de buurt wel leuke activiteiten voor kinderen te doen. Maar voor het bezoeken van de kust moet je wel een eind rijden. De beek bij het huis is heerlijk rustig. Genoeg plekjes om lekker buiten te zitten. De keuken is wel boven, dus als je buiten wilt eten, moet je alles mee naar beneden nemen. Al met al positief! ##### Teunis R.

Dat je boven woont is soms wel jammer omdat wij daardoor minder snel naar buiten gingen. De kinderen hebben ook genoten van het bad. Prachtig om de kust van Normandië en de indrukwekkende begraafplaatsen te bezoeken van de 2e wereldoorlog. Natuurlijk kon de mont saint michel ook niet ontbreken. Allemaal prima te bereizen vanaf het huis.( /- 1,5 uur rijden).De ruïne vlakbij het huis is ook zeker een bezoek waard. Ons bed(beneden) was wel wat aan de smalle kant maar dat kun je ook knus noemen. ![Het huisje vanuit de tuin.](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ef0517d1-acab-495f-b2ba-769ac06bd580-1753979167698.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![De rivier naast het huis.](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/55a6b362-ca14-4c8e-a8b4-c723d7cd276b-1753979168698.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Een bosbeekjuffer, gezien bij het huis.](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c0a81873-354a-40de-b4b3-418ca3620943-1753979167643.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![De ruïne vlakbij het huis.](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/bb07c498-9e97-48a3-9466-6e37e794e1b0-1753979168854.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jos W.

Wij hebben als gezin twee heerlijke weken doorgebracht in Les Vaux. De omgeving is prachtig om te wandelen en vlinders dartelen je om de oren. De tuin rond het huis is enorm, en er is altijd wel een plek om in de zon/schaduw te zitten. De murmelende beek maakt het helemaal af. Het huis kan schoner, maar daar staat tegenover dat het heel compleet is. Als gezin hoef je weinig mee te nemen, bijna alles is er. Ook (buiten)spelletjes en dvd's. Voor de boodschappen moesten we wel wat verder rijden, omdat de bakker/winkel in het dorp ook vakantie had. Culturele uitstapjes vragen ook om een iets langere autorit, maar dan is er genoeg te bekijken. Alle gezinnen die van rust, natuur en van Normandië houden zouden dit huis een keer moeten huren. ##### Christine S.

The house is well equipped and comfortable for 6-8 people, with plenty of seating inside and out, and a built in barbecue, and some play stuff as well, badminton bats and so on. We wanted to retreat from Covid craziness and be in a place where we didn't really need the rest of the world for a week, and it's perfect for that - you have space, scenery, and peace, although it's also quite nice knowing that the friendly neighbours are a hundred metres or so away - they were very helpful. There's a deserted riverside building just upstream that you see from some angles which isn't exactly beautiful, but it isn't a bother and generally it's pretty idyllic. There were eight of us, including 4 children of all ages, and we had a really very good time, whether fishing (limited success, but quite some fun) or exploring or just hanging around. We didn't even have any bother from mosquitoes, despite the stream. The local villages are pretty sleepy, but pleasant enough and you can get the stuff you need without going too far. Bread and a simple shop are just a couple of kilometres. ##### gareth d. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anna L. 29 Jul 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Paradijslijk Heerlijke lokatie in mooie omgeving, veel privacy, grote avontuurlijke tuin aan riviertje. Huis is gezellig rommelig, ‘ingeleefd’ en sfeervol; alles is aanwezig. Superfijn voor gezellig buitenleven en samenzijn in rustige groene omgeving, waar vanuit ook mooie tochten kunnen worden gemaakt. ##### Anna L.

The house is all as described, plenty of room for everyone to relax. All mod cons are there, there is a TV, but as its up on the mezzanine floor out of the way it wasn't viewed much, I think it only got used by our 16 Yr old to watch YouTube. All bedding and towels were included too which is the bonus. Your hidden away in a secluded valley, there is a neighbour who acts as the local liason, and will help with any problems you have, but you'd never know they were there otherwise. The gardens that run by the river are more like meadows, plenty of area for the kids to run around, you can enjoy fishing in the river, plenty of minnows to catch, other larger silver fish, and if you're lucky (like I was) trout (only one though). Make sure you use the bbq it's so nice to sit outside and eat and drink in the peaceful garden. You feel like you're in the middle of nowhere, but you're only 20 minutes from a supermarket. All in all, all I can say is that it's a lovely place to stay, and an ideal base for exploring the Normandy countryside. ##### Nick B.

So tranquil everything, idyllic, spaceous, easy living ... Suzanne as the owner picked up the communication very early and stayed in touch to assure we were totaly fine. Neigbours Mel and Johan were there to help us with anything , with fixing the broken wifi caused by a lightning struck, with many tips and even with a big frozen turkey leg :) . I enjoyed les vaux with all my senses, we all did. Would love to go back one day ##### Ariane '.

We had an amazing time at Les Vaux, treasured memories. Suzanne the owner is an absolute star! The house is large, comfortable and well kitted out. Fantastic wood stove, lovely comfy sofas, lots of hot water, good showers (and a bath). The land that goes with the property is an experience in itself, the river, the birds, the smells.... ahh fantastique! We didnt feel the need to go very far as you can do some lovely walking right from the door and we were looking for peace and quiet, which we got in spades. Wonderful! Thanks again Suzanne x ##### Elaine F.

We stayed at Le Vaux for Christmas last year - us, our 3 children and the grandparents. We arrived to a warm welcome and a fully decorated Christmas tree and house! The owners Susan & Mark had given up lots of infomration before we arrived so we had a plan of where we were going to do the shopping etc. We had a discount with Brittany Ferries through the owners too which was handy. The house was warm from the radiators, but we lit the fire and settled in quickly. The house is spacious and cosy too. The kids enjoyed their own time away from us (!) up in the mezanine with the TV and DVD player, games, books etc. while we were downstairs in the living room. Wifi throughout the house kept them happy too! We also played lots of board games and cards that were in the games cupboard- and also played snooker. > We had a great christmas and had some lovely walks up the very quiet lane, also up the mountain to one side of the house- and through the forest on the other side of the river (pretty river goes all alongside the gardens stretching far). DONT walk in the forest on sunday mornings- as its hunting time -apparently for wild boar- we steered clear! We walked through the forest to 'Mont des Cerisy' which has great outdoor activities- huge playground area, castle, mini golf. Theres a cafe but it wasnt open when we went up there. > Kitchen had everything we needed (except for a huge oven tray for the turkey!). Grandparents had the double bedroom with en suite downstairs which suited them -and kids had the 2 rooms upstairs (bunk and single) and we were in the double bedroom upstairs- and we shared the big bathroom. > Le Vaux is an idyllic place to stay- I'd love to see it in the summer. Owners were flexible with arrival time and departure time (we couldnt get the earlier ferry we wanted so had to go later.) Loads of outdoor space- although we didnt venture out beyond very brisk walks! It was nice to wake up and hear the river flowing outside. Really nice break. Thankyou Susan & Mark. ##### Jacquie T.
