The Manoir de la Riviere was truly delightful with every room perfectly infused with a blend of antiques-The grounds were vast and the silence only broken by the sound of the birds or the nearby stream..It was an absolute treat after a long day exploring Normandy-the beaches-The Bayeaux Tapestry & Mont St Michel ( to name but a few of...

I visited the Manoir on a trip to Normandy with my family, and the dinner we had here was one of the highlights of that trip. Our hosts were extremely charming and laid back, Maureen is lots of fun, and Iain is the perfect host, bringing us tea on our arrival and changing our booking with no problem at the... More

We felt at home from the beginning, the owners are really nice. Big, beautifully decorated rooms and superb food. I strongly recommend eating dinner there. The breakfast was also very good. Very comfortable bed. Don't hesitate and take this hotel!

We had a wonderful stay here in July 2011 with Ian and Maureen. My family of three included a little boy, 7 years old, and we were able to share a lovely suite of rooms which included a generously sized master bedroom, separate bathroom and separate child's room. Our room was stunning, though I suspected my son got the best... More

This beautiful manorhouse is a great base for exploring Normandy, and the food matches the quality of the lodging experience. Our family enjoyed two memorable breakfasts and one of our best dinners in France, courtesy of the owners/chef who run a cooking school on the premises. This is a very relaxing, country experience and the friendly owners took great care... More

From the moment we stepped in the Manoir, Iain was the consummate host. He made us feel like honored guests while chatting and bantering with us as though we had known each other for eons. Meeting dog Moses was a plus, and we were sorry that wife and co-innkeeper Maureen was laid up with with an lingering malady. We can't... More

From the moment we arrived, Maureen and Ian made us feel like we were with friends. The room, the service and the meals were wonderful. We were made to feel at home; we even were invited to join in a birthday celebration with some of maureen's relatives over from England. The hotel is extremely well situated for visiting Bayeux, the... More

My daughter , studying abroad for the semester, and I took the opportunity to check off touring the Normandy from my 'bucket' list (this tour and 'studying'for it should be mandatory for citizens of all free nations). I always use trip advisor, and all these accolades are 100 percent spot on! Ian couldn't be friendlier, he is a fabulous chef,... More
