The Haven Cottage Normandy France - Holiday Cottage for Rent

This has been the most relaxing holiday I've had! Nice walks and drives, beautiful area and friendly people. I will definitely be returning to the Haven In summer it must be the most relaxing place �my room is lovely, Frances! Food is gorgeous and everything has been as I hoped. Peace and some time alone. Here's to later on in the year. Goodbye till next time. Martin Berry (RAF) March 2007 As welcoming as home, with none of the usual stress of vacation. Any thoughts of our trip to France will include happy memories of the Haven. Thank you for this warm, quiet and friendly space. Paul, Tami, Lauren and Sara, (Illinois, USA) March 07 Even the weather couldn't dampen the warm welcome we received when Frances came to our rescue in Montbray. We have had a wonderful four days, lots to see, and yet still managed to get plenty of rest. We did over-indulge at the pattiserie, but what the heck ! Thank you Frances for the lovely meal you cooked for us and we wish you lots of luck for the future. You are doing what most of us are not brave enough to do ! Carole & Steve Taylor, (Yorkshire, UK) March 07 This has been a grand finale to our French adventure. Our time here will be long remembered as a special highlight of our trip. The "At Home" feel of the Haven, with all its beauty, made it very delightful. We do enjoyed our visit with you - thanks for the time you gave us. We met many friendly and warm people along the way, but you two were the greatest. Wishing you many years of healthy living here in this very special place. Dave and Rose Anne Berg (Wisconsin USA) April 2007 Lunch in the garden was perfection - good food, good wine, and a great view - what more could you ask for! The food is excellent and so is the company. Many thanks for your advice and the warmth of your hospitality. As potential residents in Normandy, it gave us a flavour of what life could be like when we leave the rat race! Lesley & Peter Lister, (York U.K.) April 2007 The Haven was all that your website said and more. You have done so very much to make one feel at home. If your aim is to welcome, you have totally succeeded by way of accommodating my needs - over and above any expectations. I have thoroughly moulded with the rural countryside - its beauty, sounds, its flora and fauna. The "simple" meals have been gourmet vegetarian - marvellous! The gite was a perfect space to relax and collapse into. My deep and sincere appreciation for your attentiveness and kindness. Affectionately, Josette Gocella. (France/USA) May 2007 What a wonderful setting! We are very envious. The gite was excellent for our needs, giving us full flexibility in our efforts to find our own "Haven". Hugh and Frances - you were great hosts and we will especially remember the hospitality and friendship (as well as the advice) afforded to us. We will definitely keep in touch, and hope to return later in the year. Thank you! Ron and Daphne (Derbyshire UK) May 2007 Short but very relaxing stay in delightful surroundings. Lovely breakfast. And even pretty little lambs in the garden �.! Innes and Liz (UK) May 2007 What a lovely 2 nights in your beautiful home. We enjoyed the garden and the view immensely. The hammock was a highlight for the kids, of course, but your welcoming spirit was for us. Thanks so much for your warmth, smile and the restful time you blessed us with! The DeVights, (USA) June 2007 Peace and quiet and lots of laughs! That makes for a wonderful break. Beautiful green scenery. All that's missing is a windmill - or is it? Thank you Frances and Hugh. Get ready - I might be back! Daniele (France) June 2007 Lovely setting - very quiet. Wonderful breakfast. Our visit was too short - maybe next time we'll rent the gite and spend more time in the area. The Greenbergs (U.K.) June 2007 Thank you for a lovely night, and especially for not recoiling in horror as two drowned rats on a motorbike appeared out of the rain! It was a real pleasure to be made to feel so welcome. Mark and Janet (UK) June 2007 Good Morning wonderful world ! Well, that's how this place makes you feel. Tranquil - just great. Everyone's so helpful and pleasant. I'm sure England used to be like this once. We must come again and probably buy here. A huge thank you to Frances who has looked after us so well. Andy, Jan, Gemma and Lauren (UK) June 2007 Thank you so much for a very warm welcome, and a wonderful de-stress week at The Haven. Cothar & Christiane (Germany) June/July 2007 Thank you both so much for making our third visit just as special as our first. We really appreciate your kindness and hospitality, and for making us feel at home. We are already looking forward to our return visit. We both feel refreshed and ready to face our busy lives again, after such a restful break. Many, many thanks. With much love Lyn and Andrew (UK) June/July 2007 Thank you so much for your kindness and warm hospitality. Very nice accommodation. It has made a great impression on us, and we will be able to find it next time �! It was beautiful to spend 3 nights in your charming house and garden. Thank you for your kindness and warm reception.
