Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
My family and I enjoyed a wonderful stay for a long weekend away from Paris. The property is very well maintained and is well situated for exploring the Normandy area. It's great for small kids in particular, as you have a private yard with a playground and sand pit. In addition, the accommodation is located on a farm with animals, which my children enjoyed observing. My only feedback for the owners would be to make clear on the website the additional charges for sheets, towels, electricity, and water usage. Unless I'm mistaken, this information is not detailed on the site, so people may be surprised about the extra charges. Overall, it's a very quiet, family-friendly option for those looking for a short getaway from Paris or those looking to explore the region. I highly recommend!

Wonderful gite!
Dear Claire Thank you so much for letting us stay in your wonderful gite! The children loved their bedroom and being able to see the cows and chickens each morning. We had a wonderful week exploring the countryside and the beach. We found the gite had everything we needed, although a few dishwasher tablets and a spare bin bag would have been useful on arrival, nothing a quick trip to local supermarket couldn't solve though! The main bedroom was lovely, it's such an interesting building! The top bedroom was awesome, the children had great fun playing up there and exploring the garden. The noise from the farm was no issue, and having the baby cows come up to the kitchen window was enchanting! All in all we had a great time, it was easy to get into Rouen for shopping and restaurants, and half an hour to the beach for some sun. Visiting Vueles-les-Roses is a must, thanks for the tip Claire! Bon journee! Rich & Lynz

Very nice and peaceful location
The property sits on a working farm at the end of a quiet lane in a small hamlet. The setting is very rural but being on the farm is interesting as the free range cows surround the property and during our week we saw the entire harvest process in the fields behind. The property is clean and tidy and has basically all you need for a comfortable stay. The owners are on hand if you need them but are not intrusive, other than a wave as you drive past. Despite being and feeling rural there is good and easy road access so you can get to both Dieppe and Rouen in 30mins. There are other things to do fairly close by including theme parks, animal parks, and walking/cycling trails. If you’re prepared to drive then the Normandy beaches are about 1.5hrs away but on easily accessible roads. However, along the coast from Dieppe there are other lovely seaside fishing villages and beaches worth a visit. It’s a pleasant and relaxing place to stay.

Perfect for a relaxing getaway with family
A beautifully renovated old dovecote on a working farm in Normandy. This was the perfect vacation home for our family. The garden is completely fenced off, so our three young children and our dog could roam freely. The kids loved the outdoor playset, the sandbox and the swimming pool. They also loved their room on the top floor. The surroundings are beautiful and very secluded. We enjoyed our daily walks. Claire was very welcoming and provided useful information about the sites to visit. Highly recommended!

Wonderdful accommodation in an ideal location
We had a fantastic stay in the Gite du Colombier, an amazing building, beautifully restored and set in tranquil surroundings of a working farm. The gite is comfortable, spacious and well equipped and Claire was a friendly, welcoming and helpful host. It is an ideal base or exploring Normandy and we had some great days out. We look forward to returning to this lovely place and would thoroughly recommend it.

Séjour relaxant
Ce fut un séjour très agréable. Claire et Phillippe ont été très serviables. Les enfants ont adoré les jouets, les balançoires, la piscine, les animaux de la ferme et les tracteurs. Je recommanderais cet gite à tous ceux qui recherchent un séjour relaxant.
