A sample of reviews independently verified by Baby-friendly Boltholes plus guest book quotes:
“We have stayed here 3 times over the last 2 years with our children aged between 6 months and 3 years old and it is the perfect place to have a long or short break for families with children. Accommodation in the Gîtes is of a really high specification and equipped with everything you would need. Good outdoor play area and one indoors should the weather not be so good. Lots of great walks near by and close by to Falaise and Caen and the D Day beaches for days out. The owners are really friendly and helpful. I cannot recommend this place highly enough” Baby-friendly Boltholes
“It is in a lovely yet very convenient location – the gîtes are next to a stunning chateau among rolling fields and woodland, yet the boulangerie and hypermarket are only a few minutes’ drive away. The facilities are great – the playroom is big and very well-equipped for little. The gîte is comfortable and the downstairs room is light, airy and spacious. Upstairs the bedrooms are simply but pleasantly decorated. What really impressed us about DDLT was the attitude of the owners, Mark and Noelle. They gave the impression that they had really thought about what makes a difference to families with young children, and nothing was too much trouble (happily supplying us with a hosepipe to fill up our paddling pool). They have thought about lots of little touches – e.g. a book of excursion suggestions from other visitors, a set of bibs next to the steriliser, a meal delivery service from a local restaurant – which make a stay there all the more enjoyable and relaxing. Recommended.” Baby-friendly Boltholes
“The gite was beautiful and enormous and the owners were friendly and extremely helpful. The playbarn is fab as is the outside play area; Falaise is a sweet town and there a lots of things to do within a short drive”. Baby-friendly Boltholes
“A great holiday had by all. Didn’t get time to enjoy all the local places to visit in the area. The gîte itself was packed full of stuff for babies and kids and both the indoor and outdoor toys were ideal. All the bedrooms were spacious and well layed out, I thoroughly recommend this gîte for all wanting a great holiday in Normandy” Baby-friendly Boltholes
“The accommodation was beautiful and comfortable, equipped with everything we needed. Lots of room to play, indoors and outdoors. We had had a great time, the setting was beautiful and the owners were really nice. I would thoroughly recommend it!” Baby-friendly Boltholes
“We stayed here with some friends and our children and had a lovely time. The accommodation was stunning and really comfortable, the surrounding area was beautiful and the owners made us feel really welcome. There was plenty to do in the local towns and the children were never bored! They especially liked the swimming pool in Falaise! We plan to return in future and would recommend this as a great place to stay for families.” Baby-friendly Boltholes
Guest Book quotes:
‘Domaine de la Tour is really a place to remember. Comfortable gite, well equipped, great hosts, Mark and Noëlle, and very peaceful. Plenty of space for the kids. This is how holidays should be like!’ Doolan family, England
‘It was great from start to finish. So much more than just a self-catering gîte, Domaine de la Tour is a lovely and complete experience. The peaceful surroundings brings a calm to one’s soul. It’s hard to find a place where you can meet the needs of both parents and toddlers, but Domaine de la Tour really worked. It had everything we needed for a fantastic family holiday. We hope to be back!’
Don, Tracey, Melissa and Abigail, England
