This fantastic B&B located not far from Mont St Michel came highly recommended and I don't think anyone will be disappointed. It has three great rooms - we stayed in one called La Colville which sleeps a family of four (plus a baby - in an antique cot).
The whole house has been well restored - a la Grand Designs for those people familiar with the UK TV series. The owner, Monsieur Tizon, is a real character and met us on arrival along with his pets - Madame Plume (le chien) & Mimi (le chat) who became the highlight for our 16 month son.
Msr. Tizon is great - speaking French to you if you want or English if you struggle. The breakfast is continental style i.e. croissants, pain-au-chocolate, pain-au-raisin but his homemade jams are delicious, as is the local apple juice.
From the house there is a short walk to a view of Mont St Michel in the distance, where we had spent the day before arriving at Les Blotteries.
Hats off to Msr. Tizon for a great stay in a lovely house. One warning if you are planning to stay with a baby. The cot has very low sides so if your little one is standing/crawling there is every chance they will try to escape. It was not a problem for us as we had tired the wee fella out climbing the stairs on the Mont.
Another tip - don't take a pram into the Mont as there are more stairs than I can remember. read more
