About the Owner/Advertiser, Mr Michael Wootton

I am now a widower aged over 70 who loves France ( the France where they do not speak much English and respect those who make an effort and speak a bit of French, it does not matter how much it's the trying that matters!) <br/>

Year property purchased 2001
Why this location? Because we could travel there for a weekend and not have to drive for 8 hours from Calais! I now go 7 or 8 times a year.
Unique benefits of property It's a lovely house, easy to maintain (including the garden), with amazing views and easy to get to. I just love it and so do all my friends.

The Owner Recommends

Avranches

Just a short drive away Avranches has some wonderful streets for shopping, garden admirers and historians alike. From The Jardin des Plantes is a fantastic view across the bay of le Mont St Michel.

Le Mont St Michel

The island monastery is today the second most visited tourist attraction in France (after the Eiffel Tower) - and is a truly spectacular site located just off the coast of Brittany. It is delightful at any time, but particularly enchanting at night. Whilst it is quite a climb to the top the views over the bay are spectacular!

The Bay of Mont St Michel

It has many beaches and sights typical of the Normandy region. A little further west brings you to the edge of Brittany and the beautiful seaside town of Cancale celebrated for its oyster farms. The coast road continues past some glorious beaches to the magnificent walled city of St Malo with its abundant shops and restaurants.

9.5 / 10 Family Holiday 8 August, 2018

For us, it was a last minute booking. The description in the advert matched exactly the reality we found when travelling to our dwelling in France. We were well received and on time.
The setting is perfect for a quiet and relaxing break from a busy and noisy life. Also, the house is very cosy. The property consists of 3 large bedrooms, one additional daybed, a large and well-equipped kitchen, one large sitting room and one large utility room. Very comfortable and welcoming accommodation for a family of six tall people. To come in your own vehicle is very important. Public transport in the countryside in the Normandy is not always available.
Loads of attractions available to visitors. It was hard to leave.

Suggestion for possible future investments would be a swimming pool and some garden furniture.

All in all, we would highly recommend this holiday spot. You will not be disappointed.

Owner response

There is garden furniture but it is kept in the locked store (key on a hook in the cupboard in the utility) it is locked away because we had some stolen on two occasions ( allegedly stolen by Brit’s!)
