Thanks for being so welcoming and helping to make this such a fantastic week. What a good idea to celebrate our “special” birthdays here. Brilliant fun in a fab place.
Fantastic time - very relaxing. Beautiful place. Thanks to you both. Highly recommended.

Brilliant holiday accommodation, thanks. Something for us all but the six girls just wanted to stay here... we managed to visit some local towns and the market in St Hilaire on Wednesday was worth a visit. Loved our meals in the evening all sitting round the table, wonderful.

We had a lovely week. Ged & Lisa are great hosts and always willing to oblige! Weather was amazing for April, we only had two showers of rain the whole week.
Cancale was pretty and the mussels were delicious. The highlight of the week was Arromanches and Longues-sur-Mer. The museum and 360° Cinema are well worth the entrance fee. Good luck for the future and I hope that the seeds all grow into lovely vegetables!!

We celebrated our Ruby Wedding in your lovely farmhouse, thank you many, many times. - Thanks for a wonderful time, enjoying the singing birds, bleating sheep and beautiful flowers in the garden - we enjoyed our stay in your lovely house! The kids were very happy too!! A lot of nice memories to take home...

Lovely old house! We enjoyed it very much: Cooking in the open kitchen for ten, chatting at the fireplace under ‘Anna’ - Surely the finest of French retreats - We enjoyed it very much, especially the sounds of the chickens and the lovely sheep. Dank jullie wel!

A second lovely stay at La Mancelliere and we’re sure it won’t be our last. Again we struggled to pack everything in but we’ve had a really good go. From lazy days in elegant St Malo and Dinard to great days for the boys at the Enchanted Village and Alligator Bay. Then of course, as the heat headed skywards on Thursday and Friday, two beautiful days on the beaches of Normandy and Brittany. It is always wonderful to end a holiday on a high note and that is certainly the case with our day on Anse du Verger followed by an early evening aperitif and dinner overlooking the harbour at Cancale - beautiful!

La Mancelliere was superb. Nice garden, as well as the accommodation. We found Fougeres and Mortain especially beautiful and interesting medieval cities. One also should pay a visit to Cancale and St Malo. The food was exceptionally fine. The market at St Hilaire de Harcouet on Wednesdays is worth paying a visit. - A special plus to all the supermarkets in the surroundings because the food dishes are very tempting (especially the fish department as well as the winery). Everything has been an adventure, now heading back to Paris!

We stayed here for two weeks; eight adults and 8 children, aged 7 years - 3 months. The house was perfect for all of us, especially we enjoyed the kitchen and the garden - which was excellent and safe for small children - the sheep and the cherries!! L’Ange Michel water park was great fun for children of all ages! Thanks Lisa & Ged for your hospitality and your kindness! We will certainly recommend this wonderful house to family and friends. Thanks!

We have spent five wonderful weeks here. The villa is spacious and cosy. Buais is a very nice little village. Don’t miss the ‘boulangerie’. Thank you Lisa and Ged for your help and advice. We wish you good luck for the future!
Jukka, Taina, Fanny & Tia-Maria Virtanen - Espoo, Finland.
We have had a fine time here at La Mancelliere with well equipped, comfortable accommodation and excellent hosts in Ged and Lisa. From beaches near Cancale to the Chateau at Fougeres, waterfalls at Mortain, a bell foundry at Villedieu les Poeles, the pottery museum at Ger (and we visited the restaurant opposite the church in Ger, 11€ for 5 courses!) and the Apple and Pear Museum, all are within easy reach of Buais. We only wish we could stay longer... Thank you Ged and Lisa for a lovely final week to our holiday.
Jo, Kevin, Zoe & Sam - Wigan, England.
It was a lovely villa and lovely hosts for a lovely week in Normandy. The villa is ideally situated for excursions to points north, south, east and west. We enjoyed trips to St. Malo & Cancale, Mont St Michel, Fougeres and the D-Day beaches as well as exploring nearby.

A brilliant place for a Christmas with family. Wonderful living room & kitchen for us all to get together. Visited the Christmas lights at Mantilly, Beauchene which, if you’re bringing kids, are well worth visiting. Other days out included St. Malo, Fougeres, Domfront, Granville... so many places.
