“Delightful” We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage as Honfleur is a little town with lovely shops, galleries and markets. The children could go and explore the town by themselves and enjoyed the freedom. 10m... more

Guestbook for CENTQUINZE

I would just like to say how much we enjoyed our stay in your idyllic cottage. Honfleur is such a
fasinating place that we will definitely return to again and again.
Mr and Mrs B. Northampton.


We had spent an incredible week in your house. The house was gorgeus and the surrounding area was delighted. Thank you very much and we will recommend your house to our friends.

Just a short email to say we enjoyed the cottage and Honfleur. It's a great location - close enough to the centre but far enough away to be quiet at night. Thanks
Mr K.S. London

Honfleur is a beautiful place and we took all your suggestions and were never dissappointed. We did some travelling through the week visiting the Canadian memorials at both Dieppe and Juno Beach.
