Description from owner
Description
Le Cerisier is part of an original farmhouse and barn built in the early 1800s in rolling French countryside. Set in 3.5 acres, there is a large garden with terrace, patio furniture and barbecue for you to enjoy. It is located midway between Bagnoles de l'Orne and Lassay-les-Chateaux, both about 8 miles away. Bagnoles is a well known French spa town famous for its waters and healing properties and there is an excellent selection of restaurants in the town. Lassay is known for its chateaux and also has a delightful rose garden. The picturesque medieval town of Domfront with its chateau and church of St. Julien is 17 miles away. Though all amenities are nearby, our location is very tranquil and you can feel the peace and quiet envelop you. The village of Madré is 2km from Le Cerisier and has a butcher's shop, post office and small bar. There are excellent restaurants in the villages nearby which serve fixed price lunches including cider and wine.
Le Cerisier sleeps seven people and is a light and spacious cottage with all the amenities that you will require for a comfortable holiday.
The front door opens into the open living room with dining area and separate kitchen located off the living room area.
The living room has comfortable seating, log burning stove, English satellite TV along with DVD. There are patio doors leading to the terrace with BBQ.
The dining area has large dining table, chairs and all required cutlery and crockery.
The well equipped kitchen includes gas cooker, separate fridge and freezer, coffee maker, electric kettle, microwave, toaster, iron and washing machine.
Stairs lead up to the landing from which there are:
Master bedroom with double bed, wardrobe, drawers etc. There is plenty of space for a cot if required (please enquire for details).
Two further twin bedrooms.
One single bedroom.
The bathroom is located off the landing and has WC, wash handbasin and shower.
WiFi available.
Outside:
The garden outside the gites is just under an acre so there is plenty of room to spread yourselves out. Garden and patio furniture along with barbecues are available.
There are a further 2.5 acres beyond the garden which is given over to a playing field - ideal for energetic youngsters - and a newly planted orchard which we are developing. You are more than welcome to sample the apples, pears and plums when in season.
The swimming pool is around 1 metre deep and close to the terraces so you can keep an eye on your children while enjoying a glass of wine, cooking the barbecue or just relaxing.

Response from the owner Thank you for your review. We are again/still saddened by your dissatisfaction. We have previously addressed all your complaints/concerns/feedback in response to your other public bad review, but as you are now raising additional issues, we will address each point again in turn. We are sorry that you did not feel the accommodation adequate for 7 adults. We have hosted such groups on numerous occasions without any issues. As an aside, your booking was actually made for 6 adults and 1 child. Had you informed us there would be 7 adults and 1 child at the time of booking, we would have rejected your request to book on the grounds that we only accept 7 people, regardless of age. As you correctly state, we did indeed visit the property to discuss the number of guests and were told by the latest arrival that one of the other guests was leaving anyway. This meant that apart from the one night, the property would be appropriately occupied. We were more than happy with this arrangement and left after having a little joke with this guest. With respect, the "simple negative review" on google was in reality a scathing attack on our business, our property and on us personally. Following our response to this review, I believe that you have since removed it. Posted mid-stay we feel that this was a very aggressive and bullying action. After reading this review, we suggested you leave with a full refund for the remaining nights as, based on the review, you were clearly not enjoying your stay. It was at this point that you became aggressive. The suggestion that we threatened to cut off water and electricity is, as you know, untrue - as is the suggestion that I at any point "mimed" anything or used the phrase "boo hoo". At no point were you "speechless" - quite the opposite in fact. As we were unable to have a reasonable and rational conversation with you, we immediately contacted Trip Advisor to intervene. We did indeed feel that your shouting and aggressive demeanour would affect our other guests. Due to the situation, Trip Advisor told you to leave the property (as i think you yourself imply in the subject line to this review) - you did not in fact leave of your own accord. I believe the journey from our property to your home should have taken around 3-4 hours. I am unsure why it took you around 10.5 hours. We are very sorry that you are not happy with the Government's latest requirements with regard to Covid 19, shared spaces and health passes. As soon as we became aware that we might have to check the health pass we contacted you so that you could make any necessary arrangements. This was a week before you were due to arrive. We provided you with official confirmation of the requirement as soon as we received it from our local authority. We strongly dispute your implied suggestion that we fabricated this requirement. We understand your frustration, but feel it is misplaced in being directed at us from the outset. As a business we are subject to large fines and potential imprisonment for not complying with the Government rules. This is not a risk we are prepared to take.

“Gorgeous gite, lovely location, welcoming hosts”
I'd never stayed at a gite before having a baby, so wasn't sure what to expect. I was thinking country cottage, peace and quiet, pretty countryside, a place to relax. And Honeysuckle Cottage has all of that in bucketloads - it's set in the middle of the tranquil Normandy countryside, with gorgeous views across the fields, a great big garden to relax in and some excellent country walks round the neighbouring villages. The local towns are fab too - places like Bagnoles De L'Orne, Domfront and Alencon are historical, beautiful and stuffed with things to do. But it also has something more special - it's like a home away from home. The gite itself is really lovely, with a kitchen, pretty living and dining areas and good sized bedrooms. The owners, a British couple, were so welcoming and lovely, researching and recommending places to visit, laying on bikes so we could look around the area, taking the time to say hello every day and sorting out a couple of small issues (e.g. a sticky window lock) efficiently. My husband is a cyclist and got very excited about the cycling terrain around the gite - next time, we're taking bikes! All in all, highly recommended.

Response from the owner Really pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us and thanks for writing such a lovely review. It was great to meet you all especially your lovely little baby who was so good natured. Hope to see you again as there are still plenty of places to explore.
