We had a wonderful experience at the Cherbourg Manor. The property is peaceful, quiet, and spacious. The gardens around the grounds are amazingly maintained. We had 17 people (4 families) and could have easily had space for 2-3 more families. It seems like it's even bigger than the property description. Eric was so helpful and kind. Not all homes are so welcoming to children, & we really appreciated that the kids were welcome to explore the vast grounds. Hints for staying at any cottage: bring your own bath & hand soap, trash bags, zip lock bags for storage, and paper towels. We loved having laundry facilities to use in both the house & cottage. There were plenty of pans & tupperware in the kitchen for cooking meals & storing leftovers. We enjoyed going into Valognes for the town market one morning. The grocery store is nearby (in town) and has plenty to supply your needs. Ask for GPS coordinates to easily find your way to the Manor on the winding country road. If you're wanting to visit the beaches of Normandy, this is a GREAT venue to choose!! We LOVED it here!!

Rented the manor house for 12, with tons of extra room for others. We were amazingly impressed with the property and the home. Well and modernly updated while retaining it's historic chateau charm. Owner Eric is wonderful, friendly and very accommodating--his English is great and he's quick to respond to emails as well as be of help onsite. We highly recommend this beautiful 16th Cent. Chateau--make sure to look at all of the photos and video of property, they are a great representation of the property. Merci Eric!
