Eco-Gites of Lenault

We spent a wonderful long weekend at Ecogites to escape the city and reconnect with nature after all the craziness of lockdowns. It was just what we needed. We went for long walks, straight from the gite, didn't use the car once, loved the wildflowers and the bright green of spring. The weather was lovely, just right for apéros outside on the terrace. Rosie made us feel very comfortable with all the extra attention for covid-related stuff (super clean, masks, distancing etc) which we really appreciated. We can't wait to go back again for longer and explore the area properly.

Wij hebben een fantastische week gehad. Vanuit deze centrale locatie zijn de bezienswaardigheden goed bereikbaar. De gastvrijheid en de privacy waren prettig. De inventaris is zeer compleet.

We have just returned from a wonderful 4 night stay here. The gite is really beautiful and every detail seems to have been thought of... from the welcome basket and well stocked kitchen to the plentiful fire wood. There is plenty of space but the layout encouraged us all to spend time together (not always easy at home with teenagers). The location is handy for seeing many of the sites- Bayeux and the tapestry as well as the Normandy beaches are all within around an hour's drive.
We have had a really relaxing stay and Rosie was very informative about the area and local history.
We really hope to visit here again soon.

Rosie en Simon bieden met hun gastvrijheid en hun oase van rust tussen de heuvels van het rustige Lénault het perfecte tegengif voor het drukke stadsleven. Je verblijft in een paradijs voor jonge kinderen. Adam en Otta, onze twee kinderen van 3 en 4 hadden de tijd van hun leven: wandelen door de holle weg die grenst aan het domein, de diertjes (varkens, kippen, honden, eenden, kalkoenen, poezen, ...) bezoeken, springen op de trampoline, hangen in de hangmat, glijden, voetballen, pingpongen (op kinderniveau weliswaar), petanque. Met prachtige dorpjes en stadjes als Clécy (watersport, klimsport), meertjes en riviertjes in de buurt kan je voldoende uitstapjes ondernemen. , ... Er is een leuke zoo in Jurques op 20 minuutjes rijden. Je kan verse eieren en biogroenten krijgen van Rosie, die uitblinkt in Britse gastvrijheid en 'gemakkelijkheid'. Wij genoten, de kinderen genoten en we kwamen helemaal ontspannen weer thuis.

We chose Eco-gîtes of Lenault for a long family weekend with our 7 year old and 1 year old. We were looking for a green, quiet and nature getaway that would accommodate our family and that's exactly what we found, and more. Arriving we were greated by Rosie, Simon and their sweet dogs. Nestled away between small valleys and trees, the gite had everything we needed for comfort (high chair, baby bed, etc.), for entertaining the little ones (lots of children's toys, games, outdoor swing and slide, trampoline, etc.) and for security (three floors each with security gates for the baby). The gite was very clean and even offered a welcome kit with home made jam and baked goods (very yummy!). Very well located, we made day trips to Mont St Michel (1 hour drive), the D-Day beaches (1 hour) and a visit to the Parc Zoologique in Jurques (20 minutes), which we highly recommend. Rosie was very sweet to let our 7 year old daughter help her out around the farm, feeding the animals and learning about "farm life" - which made a real impression on her. All in all, we truly enjoyed our stay and we've saved the address for future visits to Swiss Normandy (which we hope to do again soon). We highly reccommend Eco-Gîtes de Lenault.
Thank you Rosie and Simon and boys !
