Avis 7 bedroom accommodation in St Clément Rancoudray

Excellent séjour dans un immeuble impeccable, propre,bien équipé et confortable pour notre famille de 14 personnes. Environnement agréable, calme dans la jolie campagne normande. Les enfants ont été gentiment accueillis par les fermiers voisins. Accueil parfait et chaleureux de la responsable locale . Rapport qualité- prix très intéressant. A recommander .

Toute la famille réunie, nous avons profité de ce bel endroit et de cette belle demeure au proportions agréable et bien aménagée. De belles balades dans la campagne et quelques excursions dans les villes de caractères des environs (Domfront, Avranches,..) La ferme voisine menée par une famille très accueillante qui nous a fait partager des moments avec les animaux

nombreuses ballades, fête au village, excellente boulangerie, puis Mont Saint Michel, Granville, etc. Maison bien équipée.

Cette vaste demeure au charme serein offre tout le confort contemporain et fut restaurée en respectant l'authenticité des lieux avec le souci des détails ( chauffage, aménagement des espaces, équipement de cuisine, buanderie, décoration et mobilier dignes de cette ancienne demeure familiale, literie (draps en lin, linge de toilette impeccablement repassés par Madame Thébault) et sanitaires de haut niveau. Le parc aux arbres centenaires , extrêmement bien entretenu et sécurisé est un paradis pour les enfants ... et pour les adultes barbecue, chaises longues.. ). La vue sur le bocage normand est empreinte de sérénité. L'accueil fut des plus sympathique, très serviable et avenante, Madame Thébault, véritable fée des lieux entretient cette demeure avec amour et professionnalisme, elle nous prodigua avec gentillesse et générosité de judicieux conseils concernant notre séjour, nous l'en remercions vivement. Nous ne pouvons que conseiller cette magnifique propriété. Merci encore pour ces beaus souvenirs en famille...

Off the beaten track but town only 6 kms away by car. Towels - only one large and one small per person for the week - although washer and tumble dryer available, and cotton bedlinen. Very old house, including antique door fastenings, but cosy and there are plenty of chairs and sofas to lounge in for that late night beer or coffee. There are some nice grounds to wander, and an area where you can sit and admire a wonderful view across the farms and their fields. Please note that the bathroom described as toilet and shower only, is not suitable for anyone incapacitated in any way nor for small children left unattended. The shower cubicle is about 8 inches above the floor (pumbing issue I guess) and access is one step up onto a narrow tiled ledge, before another step up into the cubicle. The central heating in the upstairs rooms is fine, but the ground floor will not heat up until the temperature drops below 20 deg. C. - I guess the upstairs is switched off for the summer, but we arrived mid-Sept. But downstairs was very cold on arrival day, gray with no sun and we had a 93 year old with us who needed to get warm quickly. Initial arrival was spoilt because of the bizarre behaviour of the housekeeper. I can only manage "I am sorry, I cannot speak French" apart from the usual hello, goodbye and such. Her reply to this was to keep speaking loudly in French and taking me by the arm to show me things and explain them in French. There was no guidance at all on view except the recycling chart in the kitchen., For communication I requested wifi code to use Google translate. This proved most difficult of all. I was given a handwritten (by the housekeeper) code, at least 25 characters which did not match the code on the router. Nothing. Except a continual finger stabbed at the code and "Oui!" repeated. At last, took a chance on a short code, written in another hand which turned out to be the "proper" code. With Google I managed to have a conversation of sorts. So internet access very good but only if you use the correct password. Information about the house was not offered. By sheer fluke we found, tidied away, a "Directory" with a few English language pages. The only pages about the house were out of date (we found a page describing charges for laundry which we ignored, quite correctly as it happens) and should be updated as they only serve to confuse. So all in all, a bad start but a good holiday, and a nice place to be.

The property has been renovated to a high standard and is well equipped. We were a party of eight aged from 24 to 88 and the accommodation was exactly what were looking for. The dining and kitchen area is excellent and the en suite bedrooms are comfortable. If there was a drawback; the only heating in the living room was a log fire and during a cool showery week in June, this room was sometimes a little less inviting. Madame from the Agency waited into the evening for us to arrive after our ferry was delayed by a particularly awful storm. The farmers across the road were friendly and sell a particularly good aperitif! Car transport is essential.
