This was our 3rd stay at the Manoir du Quesnay (twice as a couple and once with our two girls)…read more Jacques and Alix run a world-class B&B. The Manoir has several rooms in the main house as well as several more in the "boat house". Its location is perfect to visit all of the northern coast sites and is easy to find. The staff is very efficient and quality oriented. Everything in and around the Manoir is clean and well kept. On several occasions I have asked for restaurant recommendations and every time we have been very impressed with the food. I can say that Jacques and Alix are always prepared to provide recommendations for a day trip, all of the details and even make reservations for you if recquired. Just minutes to the town of Bayeux (and the famous Tapestry) or all of the Normandy WW2 sites/Museums/Cemeteries. Easy Drive to Mont St. Michael and the beautiful coast of norther France. Just ask Jacques and he will gladly be your tour designer, answering questions, providing historical context, providing maps, making great suggestions, etc. If you are a Band of Brothers fan, you are very close to all the key areas of the 101st airborne activities from D-Day (episodes 2 and 3). Carentan and Brecourt Manor are just a short drive away. There is also a number of monuments and museums that honor those great men. If you are a fan of Saving Private Ryan then you have all of the cities and sights all within easy reach. The opening and closing scene were shot in the American cemetery in Coleville. An absolute must see. I cannot say enough about how much we love staying at this B&B. I do not think you can find a better combination of location, quality and people anywhere in France. This is a must stay if you are headed north of Paris.

Each morning, along with the arrays of breads and jams and meats, fruits and cheeses, there was always a special treat; Crepes, pot de creme, etc. Our room was huge, comfortable and beautifully appointed. The garden in the courtyard was a gem. We stayed 3 nights but I can't wait to go and linger longer. Wonderful place to base for D-day touring.

Simply one of the nicest places you can stay in Normandy, and possibly in all of France. The…read moreowners were so kind, hospitable and helpful to us, and made us feel like family. They made some great restaurant recommendations too. The room was spotlessly clean and the bed and linens were top notch. The decor of the room was also very tasteful. The building itself is beautiful and we felt privileged to be able to stay there. Highly, HIGHLY recommend staying here if you are traveling near or through Bayeux / Normandy.

Excellent place to stay and take in Bayeux France. We had the Noble Guesthouse and it was a…read morespacious 2 bedroom place for our family to stay a few days. Everyone had a place to stay, hang out, or get some space. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly - making us feel at home. Their morning breakfast was top notch. The chapel, restaurants, cafe's, and sights are all within walking distance. This is a place that reminds you the history that permeates France with buildings that are hundreds of years old (but don't look shabby) and a friendly atmosphere. If you are planning on exploring Normandie you can base out of here and be within 1-2 hours of everything.

This "guesthouse" is way beyond a bed and breakfast. Check out the photo of their entrance…read more We stayed here as our base for exploring Normandy. It worked perfect. Much of Bayeux was walkable from here, and driving to the American and British beaches was very manageable. You can see the entrance to the museum with the Bayeux Tapestry from their front door. Restaurants we planned to taxi to were walkable. The facility is a several century old mansion, totally renovated by the architect owner who has done everything first class. Our room was huge, everything was new, and everything worked. The staff was outstanding in their efforts to accommodate a couple Americans. Breakfast equaled the facility - in a formal dining room setting and with an extensive selection. I would recommend Hotel Tardif Noble Guesthouse to anyone, whether they're five star hotel people or campers.

This and Cave de Mirande are two world class farmhouse cider producers, 4.3 level and up with ciders that rival the best wines, Belgian geuze, and American sour ales. Incredible. Pro Tip: you can STAY HERE! It is a bed and breakfast or you can park your camper or just camp in a tent here. House and cider cellar room is beautiful, family run. Staff was hospitable but exceptionally friendly and made exceptions for us to come in after hours. We rang the doorbell and got the royal treatment even though they had been closed for half and hour. They also sell, per usual, Calvados, Pommeau, and other artisanal goodies. Their Pommeau was absolutely incredible. Overall an amazing experience. A MUST on your cider trip through Brittany and Normandy.

I can recommend this lovely place in Normandy to all my friends. It is situated at not yet 20…read moreminutes cycling from the coast and at a short drive from many historical places you ought to visit. The welcoming by Marc and Laurence was warm and friendly and I should not forget Oscar, the very clever and kind dog who watches over the premises. We felt very safe. The rooms are spacious, clean and cosy. They have a double and single bed. There is a separate common room that serves as a kitchen and there is a little fridge and microwave you can use. Perfect if you want to have your lunch or dinner "at home". In the morning you get served breakfast: coffee, tea, fresh made apple juice and a choice of home made jam you can add to the typical French bread we love so much. If you are still hungry you can treat yourself on the typical Norman cake. While having breakfast Marc will reveal you some interesting topics of the history or give you tips and advice of places you should not miss. This is why we went to Bayeux to visit the tapestry with the history of William the Conqueror and Harold the betrayer. If Marc wouldn't be running a little farm and guesthouses, he sure would be a guide or a history teacher. Laurence is a lovely host, friendly and kind. We really felt at home the moment we set foot in that lovely garden. I loved the flowers, the roses... everything breathed hospitality. The lovely garden was inviting and so we ended up several evenings with the other guests to spend a nice evening together. I sure would love to go back again... rather sooner then later. We feel lucky to have picked out this B&B. It must have been good fate. Price/quality it is a really good deal. Best way to make a reservation is to write them an email. They manage English enough to help you out.
