This place is truly magical. From the gardens that greet you, to the house and rooms themselves, you will feel like you're staying in a feature article from Architectural Digest. Michael and Gilles were so kind and helpful - from being the most hospitable hosts to making dinner reservations for us, we felt completely cared for the entire time we were there. The home is just right in the middle of the city and you can walk everywhere. The breakfasts in the morning were the perfect way to start our days (my husband said the croissant was the best he'd ever had!) The gardens were perfect for taking in an afternoon drink after a long day of D-Day tours. We bought cider from them, but there are also wine stores right in town.
Just a couple notes: This is a small town and the days we were there, a lot of things were closed, so I'd definitely recommend making reservations for dinner in advance or asking Michael and Gilles about this when you first arrive. There was some shower gel, but no shampoo or conditioner. This was not a problem, but just something that would've been helpful to know in advance. The pillows were not as firm as we're used to, but again, just a minor inconvenience. Also to note - check-in is 6-8pm. Since the site states this, it was not a surprise, but something that may affect your lodging choice.
Would definitely recommend this place to anyone coming through Bayeux, especially if you're doing a D-Day tour, as many of them seem to leave directly from Bayeux.
