Lovely place. Shame about the service.
We were here over New Year. While the accomodation is very pleasant, we were very disappointed that we were only offered a late night dinner, very heavy dinner but both my wife and I dont like to eat very late, as we are a vegetarian and diabetic. There was no restautant or shop open on New Years day, so went without any food for the entire day. The key is that no effort what-so-ever was made to accomodate us other than offer us a fixed 4 course meal late at night.

Response from The Old Farm on 8 Jan,2024
Well what can we say, so the truth was firstly I emailed you well in advance regarding the possibility of evening meal which you took me up on the offer for the first night, at this stage there was no mention of a vegetarian or diabetic from you or after both of you ate the evening meal which consisted of chicken and oysters . So the following morning after breakfast you asked about an afternoon tea, as it was New years Day I informed you that due to all the shops being closed I would not be able to go out and buy the items as we do not keep those sort of items in stock at this time of the season. You made it clear that evening meal was too late for you so I offered to call numerous restaurants for you to see if they were open, bearing in mind it was New Years Day which you said not to bother as you would look on the internet. I then met you on your return to the house after lunch were you said you had managed to get something from the local bakery, You mention you went the entire day without food but yet you had breakfast and then the items from the bakery. The Key is that we are a B&B which offer table d' hotes which is a set menu at a set time. We are not a restaurant, we are a B&B who can offer you table d' hotes or restaurant suggestions, Shame about the service is very harsh comment as we cannot be held responsible for declining our offers of help

We really enjoyed our stay! The grounds were lovely and interesting, the room clean and spacious, and the whole feel was just right for our Normandy visit - nostalgic and relaxing! Our hosts could not have been more welcoming. We spent two weeks traveling in France and the one dinner we had at the farm was quite possibly the most delicious. This place is a gem.

Everything we expected from a stay near D-Day landing sites and battles… and more. The hosts were top flight and - a hint - the dinner they made (extra, but very reasonable) is one of the best meals we have had in a long time. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

The Old Farm was a wonderful property and the owners are fantastic. They were welcoming and friendly and have clearly done an amazing job creating a very comfortable place for guests. Our room was spacious and very charmingly decorated, with a large bathroom, all done in an old French farm style (at least as far as we know!). The inner courtyard is a wonderful place to relax with coffee in the morning or with a drink after a day of being out. The breakfast options were excellent and plentiful. We would certainly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing, friendly place to visit.

Fantastic place to stay if you are wanting to visit D-Day sights & even better if you’d like to get locals perspective. Vacation time is precious-so being able have candid chats with knowledgeable hosts: should we do this or this?? David & Allison will not lead you wrong. Additionally, highly recommend eating at least 1 dinner at the Inn. We grabbed a bottle of wine at a local shop during the day & knew we could enjoy it just a few steps from our room. Email ahead of time & learn the dinner menus ahead of time! We will be back because the hospitality was genuine & right on pointe!

Such a beautiful historic farm house. The food that was prepared for us by David would rival any top restaurant. Allyson has thought out every detail and amenities that you could ever need.
