Normandie (Manche) 4-star GITE de CHARME, spacious, comfortable, enclosed garden

Gite de l'Aunelle
classified Meublés de Tourisme 4 stars

Charming stone house, nestled in the heart of the Normandy countryside, very spacious, tastefully decorated, quality services. Garage and fully enclosed planted land. Ideal for family holidays, visiting the region.

Ground floor: Hall, living room, magnificent living room where you can share your meals around a 'monastery' table in a Norman setting and relax enjoying the charm of a large open fireplace.
In the kitchen, everything is at your disposal to offer you quality equipment in a pleasant and functional space.
Upstairs, the same refinement was brought to the decoration of the 3 bedrooms, bathroom and separate WC.

Located on the border of the department of Manche and Calvados, near the A84 motorway (3 km), it is halfway between the landing beaches (65 km - 1 h) and Mont Saint-Michel (72 km - 50 min)

Its geographic location in the center of Manche is an ideal starting point for discovering Lower Normandy and in particular the coast of the Manche department and its 350 km of coastline, namely:

ON THE WEST COAST
- to the south: Saint-Malo, corsair town, Mont Saint-Michel a must-see tourist site, Granville its fishing and sailing port. Going up the coast you can enjoy an extraordinary and varied coastline with its dunes, its harbors (La Vanlée, Regnéville and St-Germain-sur-Ay), its coastal towns where you can stroll, practice fishing on foot or enjoy excellent local gastronomy without forgetting the islands of Chausey, Jersey, Guernsey, Sark (many daily maritime connections from Granville or Barneville-Carteret)

- further north: a detour is essential at the Moulin de Vauville the Osmonville biscuit factory without forgetting Barneville-Carteret, La Pointe de la Hague, Le Nez de Jobourg, Auderville and its renowned restaurant 'La Malle aux épices', Port Racine smallest port in europe and then Cherbourg its ferry terminal and La Cité de la Mer.

ON THE EAST COAST
Going down you will discover Le Val de Saire, Le Phare de Gatteville, Barfleur, St-Vaast-la-Hougue and then Sainte-Mère Eglise and the famous landing beaches without forgetting the American cemetery of Colleville-sur-Mer and the Memorial of Caen.

Closer to us and CENTER MANCHE
Saint-Lô and its Saturday market where local products are widely represented without forgetting the stalls of fish, seafood and shellfish. Saint-Lô is also a city where it is good to stroll at the foot of its ramparts and without forgetting its national stud farm. Villedieu les Poêles and its bell foundry, Torigni-sur-Vire, its castle, and its typical Monday market, its pedalos and for thrill seekers the Bungy (bungee jumping) at the Souleuvre viaduct. Champrepus zoo is a visit not to be missed for young and old!.

A Great Experience

The outside of the Gite was charming, the inside was beautifully decorated, and the location was bucolic! Our host, Jean-Claude, suffered through the butchering of my French language skills and very kindly helped us get settled in. The kitchen was fully equipped and the main bath was well appointed. The area around the Gite was very pretty and the villagers were very polite. I would love to go back again as Normandie has so much to see.

We had a lovely time in this lovely property. There was plenty of space for six of us, and we especially loved the fire place! The location was perfect - less than an hour's drive to all the sites we wanted to visit in Normandy, from Mont Saint Michel to the D-Day beaches. I highly recommend!

Property in Guilberville

We enjoyed our stay very much - everything we needed was in the property. The host, Jean-Claude was most welcoming and friendly. Most mornings we could get fresh croissants from the boulangerie in the village and there is a good local restaurant just 5 mins up the road. We especially appreciated the washing machine and tumble dryer as the weather in October was not ideal for drying clothes.

Elegant and Spacious

Jean-Claude's converted family home was wonderful. It was elegant, spacous, very clean, well equipped, well decorated, and just a pleasure to spend time in. It is a very quiet neighborhood. It had everything we needed for our stay. Cooking was easy. Doing laundry was easy. The kitchen diner was great for breakfasts and the more formal dining area was great for dinners and games of Scrabble. Jean-Claude was welcoming and helpful. It would have been even better if we had spoken French as it would have allowed us to converse more with Jean-Claude. The location is central for exploring Normandy with access to both the east and west coast of the peninsula. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you Jean-Claude

Charming, comfortable and central to all Normandy!

This gite couldn’t have been more perfect for our week traveling around the department. We travelled in every direction and found every comfort when we got “home” whether we had to make a meal, warm up or chill out! M. Corbrion is a gracious and super knowledgeable host who shared his passion for the region in many ways up front and was available if needed. We could easily have had the same experience with the 2-4 others who were originally going to travel with us.

An amazing property with a lovely host

The gîte is in excellent condition and very well situated in the town. Plenty of parking and very close to the local corner shop and bakery. The town is centrally located in the region with easy access (by car) to the local points of interest. Our host, Mr Corbrion, was very warm and friendly and respectful of our needs. We were able to communicate quite well with my basic French and our holiday was very relaxed as a result. Even our dog enjoyed the property with the enclosed garden where he had freedom to run about. Would definitely visit again. Thank you for your hospitality Mr Corbrion!

Family holiday in Normandy

Have just returned from a family holiday in Normandy staying at the Gite owned by Mr Corbrion. On arrival at the Gite we were met by our host Mr Corbrion who was very welcoming and provide lots of information on where to go and what to see in the area. The house is set in a lovely village with a super bakery and local shop. It is ideally located for both the Normandy Beach tours and the more historical adventurers, with some truly amazing things to see. The house itself was very comfortable and well equipped, with plenty of outside space to relax in. We found the whole area very tranquil, a place you can truly unwind. I would have no hesitation in recommending this property to friends and family, and we are very likely to return.

Central Location in Normandy

Centrally located gite in a quiet village. Gite was exactly as represented, we were met by Jean-Claude who doesn't speak English and we don't speak French so there was a language barrier. Fortunately he had a translation app that worked well although we might have asked for more detailed local information if we had a common language. He did point us to one of the highlights of the trip - Christian Dior Musee - Dior's childhood home in Granville. As mentioned the gite is located in a small village - so small that it only had a bar and bakery however Torigni-sur-Vire is only a 10 minute drive away - many shops around the main square and a Carrefour on the outskirts. Don't miss the Saturday market in St. Lo. So much to see that we couldn't cover it all in a week. Would stay again if we return to the area.

Perfect home from which to explore La Manche

All of La Manche's many stunning sites are within easy driving distance making the gite a perfect base. The house has large, comfortable rooms, a good-sized garden, is spotlessly clean and well-equipped. You are not in the countryside but having an excellent boulangerie 5 minutes' walk away is more than compensation. Their rhubarb tart is superb. Monsieur Corbrion could not have been more charming, welcoming, flexible, and knowledgeable about the region. Family plus 2 dogs had a wonderful 2 weeks

Superb in all respects

If anything, the property is even better than the pictures. The gite is immaculately clean, the property is in excellent shape, spacious and with every amenity. There is an onsite garage so our car was safe and secure (and out of the rain showers). Mr Corbrion was a perfect host, easy going and very helpful with everything. His knowledge about the surrounding area, its history, customs and lore is prodigious and he shares it willingly. He was very helpful in suggesting sites to visit, as well as with practical information: shopping, supermarkets, petrol stations, and even the city recycling centres. And Mrs Corbrion presented us with flowers and the unexpected surprise of her delicious teurgoul (rice pudding) on our arrival - a generous bowl quite sufficient for the four of us. The gite is perfectly located in the Normandy area and is within a half hour's drive of Bayeux and St Lo, both very good jumping off points for visiting the Normandy beaches, Mont St Michel and other sites of the area. I highly recommend Mr Corbrion and his beautiful place to anyone who is thinking of visiting La Manche and would like to have a pleasant stay away from the hassles of city hotel dwelling.
