The house was constructed in 1838 and is furnished in a traditional style with French and English furnishings. It is a ideal for entertaining families and groups.

We feel it is worth disclosing the following to avoid any disputes or misunderstandings. The house is over a 150 years old and has many antique and older items. Some walls are the original torchis (mud and straw) and not perfectly true or smooth, floor boards may be unlevel and furniture doors may squeak. This does not come across on photos, whilst most people will appreciate the house, perfectionists and people used to staying in 5 star hotels may be disappointed. The standard aimed for is safety, cleanliness, comfort and function.

A lovely old French house, plenty of space and lots of things for the kids to do, table tennis a complete winner.
Rather sad to see most of the curtains hanging off the rails and kitchen doors hanging off. Also if you are looking for a place with comfortable beds and nice bedding and towels this may not be the place for you. Having said that, we had a wonderful time. The area and people were also wonderful.

House is ideally situated near Dieppe and Varancheville in a hamlet of houses and farms at the edge of a valley. Isolation gives privacy but it is also sheltered by the othe farms. We had a wonderful time with a group of six. House fitted us like a glove. Personal avtivities accommodated for everyone because the amount of rooms.

A lovely spacious house in a very tranquil setting.
Clean and comfortable, with a very well equipped kitchen. The bathrooms had been recently refurbished and were spotless.
We travelled as a family of five, with three children under the age of twelve. All were happy - the games/tv room at the top of the house was a hit, and the bikes too.
Neighbours of the owners were very helpful during our five night stay - our arrival was met with a bottle of Normandy cider and cake, and they popped in the following day to see if all was well.
Dieppe is only 25 minutes away, where we had lovely seafood. Also an excellent fishmongers, as well as cafes etc. The beach there is pebble, but there are sandy ones further afield.
We enjoyed our stay and will return in future, there's plenty more in the area to explore.
