Quirky and colourful

A charming experience in the forest. The excellent restaurant is very popular and has a superb menu. Worth deviating from the main routes from Caen and Cherbourg to the south of France and Spain. Our first room (second floor) overlooked the kitchen vent and was noisy. The second room (third floor) cost 40 Euros more but benefitted from extra space and quietude but was not worth the extra. We had two glasses of wine and a small selection of nibble biscuits which were basic. We did not expect to be charged Euros 4.50 for the nibbles. A pity because the chef and waitresses were wonderful. The Hotel Owner applies unreasonable policies. Some room lights do not work.

This is the second year we have stayed at this hotel and it just gets better. The staff are so friendly and the hotel is so comfprtable. Having dinner is a must as it is just fantastic and not overly expensive. We are booked in for our return trip in early May. Top marks all round.

J’ai hâte d’y revenir

Un site fabuleux. En pleine forêt, avec piscine, restaurant gastronomique, un mobilier et des bâtiment très design. Un lieu destiné au repos. Toilettes déraper, dressing. Juste la baignoire et le robinet peu pratique bien que joli. Manque de nutella au petit déjeuner mais le café est généreux et délicieux, les confitures authentiques et excellentes. J’ai apprécié !

Joli hôtel mais petite chambre....

Joli hôtel en bord de forêt. Une prise de charge pour VE bon signalée pourtant fort utile. Restaurant de bonne qualité. Petite déception sur la chambre dont les dimensions sont celles d'une chambre parisienne. 1m autour du lit..... Finalement au vu de la taille de la chambre, le prix était élevé. Personnel sympathique et professionnel.
