Great location, missing details
This is a great location, easy to walk anywhere in town, beautiful view of the cathedral. Beds were comfortable, we appreciated access to laundry machines, but the dryer doesn’t dry well, like most you’ll find in Europe anyway. Families with young kids will find games and books, etc.Be aware this property is colocated with the owner’s residence, with a separate entrance and space for you, which isn’t clear in the listing. There is a padlock to lock your door when you leave, but there’s not an easy way to lock yourself in at night- count on the door that locks the courtyard, which seems very quiet and safe. It’s possible to lock your apartment door from the outside and go around to another door to get back in. Damian was very nice; we would have appreciated more info before arrival, with details about how to check in, parking, and local recommendations like other VRBO hosts we’ve known. For example, we didn’t have coffee in the apartment, and it would have been great to know what might be recommended nearby - the only ones we found didn’t open until 10.

Not a Great Experience
As per my 24 minute recorded conversation with the VRBO rep, the proprietor was only interested in a 100% profit margin on the rental. There are many considerations …..safety being the 1 and then it goes downhill from there. The outside gate to the rental had a padlock but no installed light or even a street light. It was pretty tricky to navigate in the dark without a phone light. The owner mentioned there was no way to lock the interior door but that was OK as he was on premises. (Not a ringing endorsement for our safely.) No bath soap or gel or washcloths. Towels were almost rags.Toilet brush but no cleaning aids. No one was present during out stay. He was definitely elsewhere.

Cute cottage - close to restaurants and shopping
The location is perfect- walk to most areas of Bayeux with ease. Well kept and nicely furnished! The bottle of cider was unexpected and much appreciated! Some challenges with initially finding the location- our host responded and let us in. The washer and dryer were absolutely beneficial!

Valhalla Cottage
We were very comfortable staying here. It was clean and very convenient to the center of lovely Bayeux. Parking was very convenient as well. The photos on the site are a little dated. The inside is the same, very nice, with the exception of the couch, but the outdoor furniture hadn’t been painted recently (not a problem for us on a cool and rainy weekend in April). We really enjoyed staying there.

A modern, comfortable cottage in a perfect location!
We absolutely loved staying in this charming cottage steps from city center Bayeux. Damian (our host) was very helpful and attentive. Bayeux was the perfect place to stay to see the Normandy beaches (which we did), but we also loved walking around the charming town of Bayeux. It was an all-around wonderful stay. Thank you!

I'd Give This a Higher Rating if Manager Would Refund $
Overall, this is a nice place. However, I'd booked this place for 2 nights (roughly 6 months in advance) and later told that the place was only available for the first night. I had paid for both nights, and I'm still trying to get a refund for the second night.

Bayeux Vacation Rental
The location was excellent and convenient. Lovely property. We have several concerns: 1) Check-in the owner should have specified to enter the gate and not the main door. We had to call for assistance. 2) There were insufficient toilet paper, paper towels, and towel. We had to buy supplies which should have been supplied. 4) No coffee filters. 3) Property owner was slow to respond when need to know where to park our rental property.

Everything it promised to be and more
We loved this house and the Bayeux location even in the dreary rainy days of December! Unlike some other rental listings, the real thing is actually BETTER than the photos. The house itself is beautiful - nicely decorated and SO clean. The beds are comfortable, the linens are high-quality, the hot water works and there’s good water pressure. The kitchen has everything you need and is well organized. Everything was as it is described or better making for a very pleasant stay. The location within Bayeux is perfect - a very short walk to the traditional French downtown with ample restaurants, cafés, and shopping; and a very short drive to several supermarkets that have everything you need to have a nice dinner at home. Since we arrived in Bayeux the day after flying in from the U.S. we really appreciate the opportunity to have an early dinner at home those first couple of nights as we adjusted to the time change. Bayeux itself is a fantastic location for exploring the greater Normandy area. It’s even an easy drive on the autoroute to Mont St. Michel. It’s really wonderful to have hosts like Damien who clearly care about their guest’s experience. Merci beaucoup et à bientôt!
