There's also a well equipped INDOOR PLAY ROOM, BBQ and lots of outdoor tables and chairs. The location is hard to beat – under an hour from great sandy seaside beaches and major attractions such as MONT ST MICHEL, the D-DAY LANDING BEACHES, BAYEUX, Swiss Normandy and several quality Zoos and Family Fun Parks. We're an easy drive from all the ferry ports and just over a 4 hour drive from the Tunnel at Calais and 1 hour from Caen. On our doorstep is the stunning LAKE DATHEE with a 7km cycle track around it and 18 hole golf course. Here you can fish, windsurf, kayak, enjoy a swim from the lovely sandy beach or play a round of golf. There are great cycle and walking trails around us including within the lovely ST SEVER FOREST, plus a quality hard tennis court in our local village. A car is essential as we are in a rural location and we have a garage where you can store your bikes, fishing equipment etc....AND YOU DON'T NEED TO HAVE CHILDREN TO ENJOY ALL THAT'S ON OFFER!

If you enjoy painting or photography then our stunning views with soaring buzzards won't disappoint, and you'll be spoilt for choice with the selection of award winning restaurants nearby. If you really want to sample the local delicacies then visit one of the daily markets where you'll find amongst other things local cheese, dairy, fruit and sausages and, of course, the famous Calvados brandy! If you are golfer why not spend a day on the beautiful 18 hole course at Lake Dathee and enjoy a drink and bite to eat afterwards in the friendly clubhouse overlooking the lake. Please note that we don't generally accept more than 6 adults at a time due to the layout of the house. Owners are on site in an adjacent property to give you all the help and advice you need during your holiday.

An excellent Gite! Never stayed anywhere so well equipped particularly in the kitchen and for young children. Sheila and Tony were great hosts. Very friendly and welcoming and very helpful with local knowledge and places to visit. Our Grandson loved the trampoline and we loved Sheila’s amazing coffee cake!! Thank you, we will definitely be back!

Excellent stay, in a nice location and great hosts!

Sheila and Tony are such a nice and caring hosts that you will immediately feel at home! The location is amazing, in a very calm and relaxing environment, with a nice surrounding! The house is perfectly equipped and tastefully decorated. The firesides in the living room and the kitchen made our stay even more pleasant. The garden around the house is beautiful and made the kids happy with all the playground they enjoyed in addition to the bikes. This was a memorble long weekend where we enjoyed both the house and the neighboring monuments and villages (Mont saint Michel...). We definitely recommend! Thank you Sheila and Tony for your kindness and friendship spirit!

A truly wonderful holiday at Hillcrest

What a wonderful stay we had at Hillcrest. With stunning views of the Normandy countryside and stacks of space for the kids to play (on the large trampoline and swimming pool) it was the perfect place to relax and enjoy our family holiday. Sheila and Tony were on hand to answer our questions and were fabulous hosts, even going as far as to guide us to the local Carrefour to stock up on wine before we departed. Throughout the gite it was all the special touches which made our stay so great - the beautiful bedding, the immaculate kitchen, the ‘gin bar’ and bbq area... everything had truly been thought of. We couldn’t recommend Hillcrest enough. We had a brilliant holiday and will definitely be making a return visit!

Above expectations

It was more than expected. They have gone over and above to make sure they have covered all your needs for a comfortable stay. The only negative thing was there was no tv in the main lounge and that was only missed due to the bad weather when we were there. I believe that it was something to do with a poor signal in that room.

Wonderful place!

From the first mail with the house owners, Sheila and Tony, we were treated like hotel guests. They even asked us if we needed something from the shops as we arrived on a Sunday. At arrival we thought that he house is even more beautiful than it looked on the website. It was clean, cosy and warm when we arrived. The rooms are beautifully decorated and the house offers absolutely everything you need. The children loved the so-called 'men-cave'. The property was well-maintened and it is obvious that Sheila and Tony put much effort and love in what they do. They were also very friendly and helpful and we enjoyed the talks with them. The area offers so many things that are worth seeing that a week is actually not enough. We visited Mont Sint Michael, Granville and some other places including Colleville-sur-Mere. We ate a plat du jour in Vire in a place called Brasserie Le Central and it was simple but good and with friendly staff. Pizzeria Le Four a Bois in Vire was a bit of a disappointment; the pizzas were not that good and quite expensive as well. We would like to thank Sheila and Tony for their warm welcome and for our very pleasant stay!

Hidden Gem

This is my first time renting a temporary house and, based on my wonderful experience, it will not be my last. Our family group consisted of my two adult sons, two daughter-in-laws, two grandchildren (4 years old and 15 months old), my wife and I. The house easily accommodated our group (we did have another adult friend for the first two nights). The house is in a rural area of Normandy, with an awesome view of the surrounding countryside. We greatly enjoyed the outdoor grounds and the children were enthralled with the swings, trampoline, and toys provided by the hosts. The city of Vire is nearby and provided any provisions or other needs we required. The centralized location provided us easy access to our daily adventures (Saint Malo, Mont St-Michel, Bayeaux, D-Day invasion beaches, American cemetery). The hosts, Sheila and Tony, are a delight. They were never intrusive, but always available to answer our questions and provide insightful information. My one regret is that I did not have enough time to just spend an evening chatting with them. I am not prone to hyperbole; however, their place is an absolute bargain and a somewhat hidden gem. Be assured, as more people discover this place and the graciousness of the hosts, it will become more difficult to book, especially in July and August. I hope that our family can return some day!

Sheila et Tony nous ont vraiment bien accueilli et nous ont offert des gâteaux et une bouteille de crémant à notre arrivée! Cet endroit est parfait pour profiter de quelques jours au vert, avec des enfants qui peuvent notamment profiter du très grand jardin où se trouvent un trampoline et une structure de tobogan. Bref, nous reviendrons probablement!

Un lieu et un accueil fantastiques

Le gîte Hill Crest de Tony et Sheila est vraiment une perle. Niché sur les hauteurs de Sourdeval, il est au calme et possède un grand jardin (avec trampoline et piscine) qui a fait le bonheur des enfants, mais toutes les commodités sont à maximum dix minutes en voiture. Notre groupe de deux familles (4 adultes, 3 enfants) y était confortablement logés, et nous avions de la place. Le plus important à signaler: les propriétaires étaient présents sur place, et aux petits soins pour nous: d'une bouteille de bienvenue, à un prêt de vélo, à un remplacement instantané d'une ampoule où à la mise en place de transats dans le jardin, nous n'avions jamais été accueillis aussi chaleureusement. Nous ne pouvons que recommander ce lieu de vacances ! Tony et Sheila, un grand merci de la part de notre groupe !
