Les Douves Duplex 5 personnes lumineux avec jardin et terrasse aménagée , vue sur château à 5mn de la mer, proche Omaha Beach et Bayeux

😊: We enjoyed spending 4 days in this apartment wit our dog. The apartment is situated in a very quiet place near beautiful castle, with a big parking lot. The apartment is fully equipped with everything that you may need during your stay. It was very clean.. 😢: We were surprised to see artificial grass in the garden. The parking lot is located at about 50 meters from the house, which is not very comfortable if you have a lot of luggage..

😊: Beautiful setting & location. Characterful, clean, well equipped, spacious…. 😢: Nothing.

😊: Clean and good kitchen facilities. 😢: We had to park the car away from the house and we had a lot of luggage. There was a local cat that kept coming in the house and scratching on the door..

😊: View of chateau, characterful exterior of apartments with individual gardens, light spacious living area downstairs. 😢: The apartments are owned or rented by different people so there are no staff on the premises to assist with queries. One can phone the "concierge fairies" but they are a bit too vague. We wasted time trying to follow the instructions on how to locate our apartment - for instance, the picture of the cat said to be on the gate had rusted and fallen off, when it should have been a simple case of telling us the apartment was A13 on the site plan st the entrance. The concierge could not explain on the phone how to operate the oven because "she managed 40 properties and had no record of what type of oven it was" snd so on. She did promise to provide written notes on the information suggested as needed for future guests. The toilet worked but was a mess in need of repair which had to wait until the season's bookings are over This is indicative of a lack of maintenance planning - in view of the relatively high cost of the rent, this is not good enough.
