This lovely property had everything we needed for a relaxed holiday; it was well equipped and nicely laid out, with plenty of things to keep our two young boys occupied, both inside and out. It is well located for exploring all aspects of Normandy, and further afield if you wish. There are great supermarkets and markets all within a ten mile radius, although the town of Brionne two miles from the house has everything you need to get going, although Maddie's welcoming gifts of brioche, butter, jam, milk etc left is wanting for nothing on our first day!
We managed to visit Rouen on market day, Paris on the train from Bernay, the lake in Brionne and the Normandy Beaches among other things during our week.
If you are looking for an excellent value base to explore the Normandy region and beyond whilst feeling that you are well integrated into French culture you'd struggle to find somewhere as nice as Le Batison.... thanks Maddie, we hope to visit again very soon!
