Large Normandy Holiday Rental Farmhouse in Mortain, Manche, France Reviews

After a lovely holiday at La Mestiere last year, we returned again for two weeks in August. On this occasion there were in total of 6 adults and 5 children.

Once again because of the size and layout of the accommodation there was enough room for everybody to have their own space but also to enjoy time together as a group around the huge dining table.

Catering for such a large group wasn't a problem because the kitchen is just so well equipt and the dishwasher came in very handy. We found there was always plenty of hot water, even after 11 people were bathed or showered at night!

Chris, Nick and Beth were so welcoming and always on hand to offer information and advice when needed. Beth's sponge cake was once again delicious and her ability to speak fluent French proved invaluable when booking an appointment with the village hairdresser!

The children loved playing on the swings and trampoline and picking fruit from the trees in the garden but also enjoyed being able to watch their favourite programmes on sky TV. There were lots of outside games to keep the children happy and we made good use of the bikes exploring all the nearby villages.

Towards the end of the holiday Chris, Nick and Beth prepared a wonderful French meal for us. The food and wine were fantastic and such great value - catering for a vegetarian wasn't even a problem. We just wish there had been time to enjoy another meal before leaving.

Thank you for another fantastic holiday at La Mestiere, and we'll be back again next year.
