We spent 3 nights and 4 days at this wonderful small hotel. Sophie the owner was so kind and made some excellent recommendations for nearby restaurants and sites. The village of Beuvron En Auge is just a few steps away, as is the Pave D' Auge restaurant owned and run by Sophie's husband.

We were a little worried about staying in such a small place with our 4 year old son and six year old daughter, but we were pleasantly surprised by the warm reception and had no problem whatsoever. The children loved playing in the backyard while we sat on the patio relaxing and having a glass of Pommeau and nibbling on delicious local cheese.

The outside of the hotel is very typical Normandy half timber style, but when you walk inside your room you are transported into a very modern room with all the conveniences expected of a modern hotel in a big city. Just don't expect air conditioning, as this is not typical for the area.

A nice continental breakfast was included, including a big bowl of fresh cherries.

Overall, this was the highlight of our trip. It was nice to relax after several days in Paris and 2 days at Disneyland Paris (all I can say is "Ugh"!). We used Beuvron En Auge as our base for exploring the Normandy beaches and American cemetary, Honfleur and Deauville. They were all about 50 kilometers away, so it was an easy drive. And in the evening we returned to a relaxing country setting that melted away the stress.

I would highly recommend Le pave D' Hotes if you are looking for a low key, relaxing time in the countryside.
