A lovely weekend break. Very pleasant. Enjoyed the peace and quiet in the garden.

I can certainly see why you fell in love with this place. Lisa & Ged you are perfect hosts in a perfect place in the world. Thank you so much. Good luck with the future & may it be filled with happiness & blessings. Jodie.

J’ai fait un séjour magnifique, merci. Vous avez été sensational. Je le recommanderai à mes amis. Cheers mate, Steve.

Jodie & Steven - Newcastle, Australia.

Brilliant place, nice and clean. Lots of room for the youngsters to run around in.

We have enjoyed a wonderful week. The weather was kind, Lisa & Ged even kinder and the accommodation very comfortable and just what we were looking for. The outdoor space suited the children admirably. An ideal spot for a big family get-together.

The Cooper family - all 13 of us over 4 generations - Huby, York.

We have all had a fantastic time. Peace and quiet for the grown ups, chickens & sheep for the little ones. A great base to explore Normandy. Many thanks to Ged & Lisa for looking after us.

La Mancellière is a lovely quiet place in a lovely little village. We have had a great holiday and seen some beautiful places and buildings. The two girls enjoyed playing in the garden and splashing in the paddling pool. Our favourite places were Ange Michel and Zoo de Champrepus and would also recommend a stroll around the market at St Hilaire. A real must though is a visit to Omaha beach for the D-Day Landings. Thank you Ged & Lisa, you were both very helpful and a lovely couple.

Grazie Lisa & Ged per la gentilezza con la quale ci avete accolto. E’ stata una bellissima vacanza, abbiamo visto dei bellissimi luoghi, ed era un piacere ogni sera ritornare alla tranquillità della Mancellière.

(Thank you Lisa & Ged for your warm welcome, we had a wonderful holiday. We have seen lots of beautiful places and it was a pleasure to come back every evening to the peace and quiet of La Mancellière.)

Patrizia, Marco & Penny - Siena, Italia.

We have enjoyed our week here at the farmhouse. The garden was lovely, the cherries were yummy, the town was charming and you were so gracious. It has been a fun and delicious way for our group to bond.

Keating, Alterman, Ziek, Brand, Yankus-Eng and Jordan - Maryland, USA.

When the Vikings came back to Normandy... they certainly had a tremendous time!

We want to thank you both for a wonderful week at La Mancellière. As we have had a very busy schedule we have not had enough time to relax on the property, but we have really enjoyed breakfast & dinner in the garden, and games on the lawns, also talking to the sheep at the fence!

Mont St Michel, St Malo & Aquarium, Granville, the beaches on the coast, the 5 D-Day Landing museums / beaches - all have been a wonderful experience for us all. St Hilaire, the market, La Daminaco restaurant etc were all enjoyable. In Buais the patisserie has been a delight every morning, the tennis court has been fun in the evening and we met a lot of friendly French people who have been very patient with our French vocab!!!

Looking forward to coming back in the future.

Beautiful! We had a wonderful time. Thank you!

We had a lovely stay. Thank you for everything!

June, Marc, Ryan, Lise, Chris, Isabelle, Genevieve & Leonce - New Brunswick, Canada.

A very relaxing location after the congestion of Paris. Mont St Michel, Cancale & Dinan were our favourite areas & would warrant a return trip. However, for more local attractions, special mention must be made of the Wednesday market at St. Hilaire.

Many thanks to Ged & Lisa for their hospitality & very accurate weather forecasts!

The Robson Family - Holywood, Co. Down, N. Ireland.

Our long awaited holiday to La Mancellière has finally happened. Thank you! A beautiful farmhouse, a fantastic garden and very gracious hosts. Enjoying the log fire in July was a pure bonus! We will be back!!!

Donna, Joe, Daniel, Willow & Max - Hong Kong.

Fantastic place to stay and a good base to discover Normandy. Ged & Lisa are the perfect hosts. The week has flown by but enjoyed every minute of it.

The Englefields, Boardleys, Fullers & Connolly - UK.

Wow! Beautifully clean and accommodating house. Children have had lots of fun playing in the gardens. The week has gone so quickly and we would love to stay longer - always a good sign!! Thank you! Good luck for the future!

Nicola, Rob, Ellen, Henry & Georgi Speirs - Dorset, UK.

Perfect for adults and children alike. Lovely place to stay - didn’t want to leave! Masses to see and do, and then our lovely house and gardens to come back to. Lisa and Ged excellent hosts. Fabulous holiday, thank you.

Peacocks and McMartins - Kent and Somerset, UK.

Our family have enjoyed two lovely weeks here at La Mancellière. Lisa and Ged have been amazing in every way & the gift on our wedding anniversary was so sweet!

The girls have loved every aspect of this holiday - days out at the zoo & water parks to playing tennis in the beautiful gardens. My husband and I have found our surroundings very relaxing; the villa is very cosy and homely!

Eva & William Andrews, Elysia, Romi & Honey - Crawley, England.

Week 1 - Enjoyed the variety of places to visit from Mont St Michel to Domfront and the cascades at Mortain. Witnessed THE most spectacular thunderstorm from horizon to horizon which cut the power and took us all back to how people lived with no TV or WiFi!!

Week 2 - Beaches on most days as the weather settled to a steady sunny and warm situation. Dinard the best for sand and rock pools. Thanks to Lisa & Ged for providing such wonderful & peaceful surroundings and good advice on where to go. This is truly a lovely way to spend a family holiday!

Colin & Helen Pye, Max (4), Nina (2). Steven & Dot Pye - Streatham & Liverpool, England.

The week has gone by much too quickly. We have enjoyed it here so much. All the adults but especially our little one enjoyed the fabulous garden every day for play & relaxation. The house is so full of character, it has been such a pleasure to live in it for our week. There are so many places to visit in the surrounding area. Our favourite was Fougères.

Cal, Dave & Andrew, Danny, Kirsty & Lincoln - Billinge, Nr Wigan, England.

A great place to recharge our batteries during this long weekend stay. We enjoyed our days visiting the delightful sights of Fougères (chateau), Mortain (cascades) & Granville and we loved our cosy autumnal evenings watching selections from Lisa & Ged’s DVD collection. Many thanks!

Martin, Clara, Kit & Francis Cronin - Ploubezre, Brittany, France.

We had a lovely week here at La Mancellière. Two lovely cycles in the area in sunny autumnal weather. Lots of hills!! Two shorter cycles around Le Mont St. Michel - much flatter & easier but with great views of the bay & Mont St. Michel. A visit to the Chateau/fortress at Fougères was very interesting and a great insight into the history of the area. Thanks to Lisa & Ged for a lovely welcome to comfortable, warm and very well-equipped accommodation.

The O’Neill Family - Waterford, Ireland.
