My husband and I spent ten days on a globe exchange at Leslie and Edwigés lovely home in the small beach town of Merville Franceville Plage, Normandy. We just left their home less than a week ago and spent our last few days in Paris before returning to the USA last night. Honestly, xhen we were in Paris we both wished we could be back in our little home in Normandy. The hosts were so kind to pick us up at our hotel after we crossed by ferry from England. They drove us to Caen to pick up our car then accompanied us back to their home to show us around and make sure de were comfortable before they left on their vacation. We had a wonderful time. The house is fully equipped with everything you need for a home stay. The village is completely walkable but a car is necessary in order to travel easily to other areas. We soient a lot of time in the market making fresh orange juice. And of course we visited one of the two boulangeries every day to stock up on pain au chocolate and sandwiches de jambon. We took these along on our drives for picnics. There are several good restaurants in town where we had dinner.. Really if you like a slower pace without much traffic, a place to walk to the beach, or church or the. Restaurants, you will love it there. Also we were focusing on D Day and there are two very important sites within 10 minutes or less of their house. And we really enjoyed spending a few hours with Leslie and Edwige and we are hoping they will allow us to host them at our primary home in Muncie, Indiana. It’s not listed but our vacation home is. #13834. -
We had a great time at Les and Edwige’s place. Their house is in a beautiful location, very close to the beach and a wonderful starting point to explore Normandy. The house has all the amenities you need for a pleasant stay, we appreciate them leaving us some drinks and local food in the fridge plus cookies and jams. Very generous of them. We would love to return to their place in the future and we are looking forward to welcome them to our house. -
We had a very nice exchange with Leslie and Edwige. From the first moment there was nice contact via Facetime. For us it was the second exchange and their house is a very nice and nice place to be. The house is fully equipped, a large garden with a lovely terrace and especially close to the sea. Les and Edwige gave us a warm welcome with local products and they know a lot about Normandy. We received all kinds of great tips for places and local restaurants. On the way back we met each other and it was very warm and cordial. We warmly recommend their home!
