Chambres d'Hôtes les Vieilles Digues

We stayed here April 2023 for two nights in the triple room and had a wonderful stay. Here are our observations/experiences that also factor items such as: what we knew prior to booking (type and cost of lodging), historical variables, total value for the money and comparisons with similar experiences – we greatly appreciate travelers who have provided reviews for our vacation planning and hope this info helps you too : THE GOOD STUFF: • B&B owner staff accommodating, friendly and helpful. Daniella (owner) was one of the best B&B hosts we were blessed to meet during our many travels – she was delightful and joyful. She has a great staff too: Evelyna (cooking) and Elena (housekeeping). • House, owners, and staff embody the French countryside as a place to stay – being surrounded by farmland is great, too. • We learned that the house was built by Patricia’s parents and continues to be owned by her family. • We had a triple room, plenty of space in bedroom; bathroom was a bit smaller but functional (shower was tiny) • Décor – nice, antiques, original wooden beams, real orchids in room • Very close to Mont Saint-Michel • Plenty of fluffy towels • A real top sheet on the bed – this was great as most places in Europe use comforters for top coverings and not sheets. • Windows open and are soundproofed • Comfortable room, bed, pillows • USB port on one side of bed • Hot water kettle in room • Overhead lights – gave us plenty of light • Extraordinary breakfast, including homemade yogurt with strawberry preserves, breads (baguettes, brioche), meats and cheeses, coffee, teas, juices. • We could see and appreciated the delight we saw in Daniella and Evelyna as they served breakfast to their guests. Everyone was made to feel special. • Free on-site parking next to B&B AWARENESS STUFF: • No elevator – didn’t really need one, one flight of stairs to our room. Not for mobility-challenged folks, though due to stairs. • Floor was squeaky, glad our room was above reception so we did not disturb anyone as we walked in the room • WiFi worked – satisfactory, not great NEEDS ACTION: • Nothing

A comfortable simple room in a great location. Short drive to good restaurants in town. Rick Steves recommends and I can see why. Although we were here in cold weather, the room had both a radiator and an electric heater so we were quite comfortable. Bed comfortable as well. The woman in charge has excellent English and was helpful in planning our trip and restaurant choices.

Lovely place with a nice garden. The breakfast was phenomenal and the rooms very nice. There is a free shuttle (which you have to drive a little distance to get to) to take you to Mont St. Michel. The hostess was wonderful, she spoke very good English but also was willing to help me practice my French. We had a terrible experience with our rental care and she went out of her way to help us fix the situation....without her help I don't know what would have happened.

We were able to walk to Mont St. Michel from the property (~45min). The rooms had all the essentials and the French breakfast was varied and filling.
