Le Mesnil-Durand – Gistiheimili

Aleksander Belgía

The place is located on the outskirts of the forest, next to the road linking Lissieux and Livarot - both being interesting touristic magnets. There are many different accommodation possibilities; all of them provide opportunity both to relax on the spot or make some trips around (it's not even far from the seaside). The area is big, green and very tidy. Kids have ample amount of grass to play (+ some playground) close or far from parents - depending on the preferences. One can relax under sun or in the shade. There is charger for your electric car on the site, thus even more relaxation is possible. I can comment only on the accommodation option we were using - adapted circus wagon. This was lovely place, full of charm and surprises (the shower cabin is inside). Three people could manage this space with ease, yet one must remember circus wagon is not spacious. Small terrace allows for fantastic eating outside. Eating inside poses no problems. It is perfectly possible to cook own dishes, yet the space is very small, so individual perception may vary. As the sun is not shining directly at the wagon, it may be very comfortable during hot weather. Many heaters make sure it is good also for the cold times. I'm guessing here as we visited during temperate week and did not experiences neither heat nor cold. The host is super friendly and helpful. Breakfast served is amazing - especially when enjoyed on the terrace. Food quality is superb and the choice of fruit jams mind boggling. Luckily one can buy some on the spot as it is virtuality impossible to taste all of them.

The room has real character. It is clean and of a good size. The owner is extremely helpful and obliging, and provides good local information; though if you can speak a bit of French (as I can), it will help a great deal. The breakfast is great. The location is very good, bit in the centre of Livarto

Very welcoming and everything provided to have a comfortable stay. It's a real gem and would definitely stay again. Great location also, situated in the heart of a very pretty French town, near to shops and bars. Recommended!

Breakfast delivered to room to comply with Covid restrictions. Christel very conscious of ensuring our safety and helped considerably by booking a restaurant table for us prior to arrival. Very welcome after a twelve hour journey. Also very understanding when front door key "lost" and spare provided. Also very understanding when "lost" key found in pocket. Unlike my wife.

Staying at this charming Manoir was like living in a fairytale for a night. The room, the lounge, the library , all were perfectly appointed in the best of taste and suited the 16th/17th century dwelling that we called our own for 20 hours. And the location! Sitting in the garden by the moat, gazing at that castle, while swans and ducks meandered around us and the lowering sun played upon the water… as I said, an absolute Fairytale. Our hosts Pascale and Christophe were delightful, and made our stay not only comfortable , but stimulating, with explanations of their artwork that filled the rooms. Without a doubt, the best Chambre d’hôtes we have ever stayed in!
