The Normandy / Manche region

Our area of Normandy reminds us of the most attractive bits of our native Shropshire but with more space and far less traffic. It is a gently rolling, green area of farmland and country lanes. Normandy is famed for its butter and cheese and the cows which facilitate this. The Norman "Bocage", mounded tree-crowned earth lining the lanes or dividing fields, is also famous and was a big factor in the Allied invasion of 1944. The region abounds with the history of WW2.
Roads with very little traffic allow easy access in under 20 minutes: zoos and theme parks, 2nd world war sites, lakes, fishing and golf. Local towns and villages proud of their bakeries and special street markets. Within 1 hour: Mont St Michel, St Malo old town, Caen, the coast with wonderful sandy beaches, ferry day trips to Channel Isles.

Mortain / Le Mesnil Gilbert area

There are wonderful restaurants over the whole of the area. From very posh at just over 30€ per person for a sumptous 3-couse meal to many modest places serving great food where you can have lunch of 4-couses - often including wine and/or cider for about11€!
Mont St Michel is the most famous attraction and is the second most visited site in France. Out of this world.
The Tapestry at Bayeau is a must.
The Botanical Gardens in Avranches.
The old town of St Malo.
Villedieu Les Poeles (God's Town of the Frying Pans!) where copper and brass are produced and church bells exported.
The waterfalls at Mortain.
The Zoo at Champrepus and the Enchanted Village near Mortain are always hits with the children.
Every town has its own market - the most "French" is St Hilare on Wednesdays.

Guestbook for Le Gite

FIFE We have been spending our holidays in France for many years. Our family all agree that Le Gite is far and away the finest that we have stayed in.
DUNBLANE We have been longtime and fairly frequent visitors to Normandy and last year were fortunate to find probably the best gite we have ever stayed in.
SHROPSHIRE Set in delightful grounds La Hallotiere is tastefully furnished to a high standard. Every modern convenience is included, we also made use of the swimming pool and extensive gardens. We would recommend this site to anyone.
TELFORD Peter and Jenny, were superb hosts finding the right balance throughout. They seemed to be there when we needed their guidance as to a suitable day out, but never invaded our privacy
