Reviews of La Paresse en Ville

Great location, could walk into Bayeux and could visit all of the local attractions only a short drive away. Nicely presented and decorated apartment although little privacy for the second bed as this was divided from the living space by a partition wall with no doors. Great breakfasts delivered to your door. Lovely owners. Bed very comfortable.

Hot tub was broken and unusable although owners very apologetic. Too cold to use swimming pool but hot tub would have been great. The picture of the pool and house with the patio doors is not the apartment, it is the owners house and looked lovely so we felt a little mislead.We were in an apartment in the roof space and every room ceiling was sloping and I kept banging my head on the walls and beams in bedroom, kitchen, bathroom and living room (I am 6ft 2 inches tall). Was very expensive for what we got in our opinion, prior to this we had stayed in a hotel and a bed and breakfast which we felt offered much better value for money. Having said all of that we did enjoy our stay.

Philipe and Nathalie are very friendly and welcoming hosts. They left a lovely breakfast basket outside our door every morning - the bread and pain au chocolate were so good! Our teenage kids loved the apartment and it had everything we needed. The beds were really comfy and there was a good fan to keep us cool on warm evenings. It’s only a 10 min stroll into town centre and situated in a nice neighbourhood. We really liked Bayeux, it is the perfect location and within easy travelling distance of all the D Day sites, which we visited by car. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to anyone.

Beautiful house with tremendous facilities: a lovely pool, a hot tub, plenty of outdoor seating and a fabulous breakfast delivered to our room. Our room was beautifully designed, really well equipped with cooking facilities and a super comfy bed. Above all though, it was Philippe and Natalie who made the stay, so welcoming and delightful.

Not in the centre of Bayeux (c 15 mins walk) but with free on street parking outside.

The cottage and apartments were perfect. Would highly recommend and will book again if we ever go back to Bayeux.

A beautiful ‘home’ where you are made to feel exceptionally welcome. The facilities are extensive, rooms have everything you need and more. Swimming pool and hot tub are very clean and available to use in a secluded and secure garden. Outdoor covered kitchen and fire pit available should you like to use them. The property itself is a very easy 5-10 minute walk into the centre of Bayeux.

This was an amazing home build in the 1800s with a perfect renovation. The ambiance was of a French country home however you had all modern conveniences of a modern dwelling. A wonderful breakfast including bread, croissant, pain au chocolates, cheese, ham, etc. was included. The garden including pool, hot tub, outdoor kitchen and very lovely blooming shrubs and trees was so peaceful and relaxing. Lastly, I cannot say enough about how wonderful and kind were the property owners and their family. I highly recommend staying here if you have the opportunity while visiting Bayeux.

It is hard to say anything negative about the property. It is a little (25 minute walk) from the main city center; however, this may be a positive for some travelers.

Very nice and friendly hosts, great breakfast, nice apartment, beautiful garden.

The owner is amazing. The most helpful person. It was an absolute pleasure to stay there. Would 100% go back and stay there again.

What an amazing place to stay. Everything was just perfect 👌

We had to come home

Beautiful space! Wonderful hosts! My kids loved it!

Nothing. It was perfect!

The friendliest hosts you could ever wish to meet! Nathalie and Philippe were wonderfully welcoming, sharing information on the area, and making us right at home. From their beautiful house, comfortable beds, exquisite garden and lovely breakfasts delivered in a basket, we couldn’t ask for more. It’s a real hidden gem. Cherry on top was that Nathalie is an amazing cook and can offer a range of things to cook on a brilliant menu. We were lucky to enjoy a seafood platter and steak on our last evening which was amazing. 🤩 We felt we were with friends we’d known for a long time. We will definitely go back!

The pool and Jacuzzi were amazing, and the owners were very friendly

.

Beautiful house with gorgeous pool and jacuzzi (even though I didn’t use the pool ans jacuzzi). My room was decorated to perfection had large windows that let in a lot of light. The space felt very comfortable, cozy and was spacious. The couple who run the place were so sweet and took such good care of me. Since I had to leave early for a work meeting on two of the days I was there ans wasn’t able to have breakfast l, Nathalie would leave me a basket filled with of goodies the evening before. Also, Phillipe drove me into town every morning. It was very sweet. Also near by are the botanical gardens, which were very nice to walk through.

The property itself was perfection, however since I didn’t have a car and relied mainly on my feet, the property felt slightly far from town. I would still stay here again though because I loved the accommodations and the hospitality from Nathalie and Phillipe.

Our hosts were very helpful and welcoming. Breakfast delivered each morning was super delicious. We enjoyed the garden and hot tub.

Breakfast, hot shower, clean towels

Little noisy from road

We loved the warm welcome from the hosts, Philippe and Nathalie, the lovely decor and cleanliness of the apartment, the convenience of the location (10 min walk to the beautiful town center of Bayeux) and having a pool and a jacuzzi after a long day of sightseeing! It was a most relaxing vacation!

Nothing, everything was perfect. We only wish we could have stayed longer than 4 days but there is always next time!

Very welcoming French hosts who were able to recommend and book a local restaurant catering for gluten free requirements. Very well furnished apartment, with great ambiance.

The property had all the amenities we needed for 2 nights

The English breakfast was amazing 🤗 we were able to eat outside with our friends in the morning :) we enjoyed our stay here. The owners were amazing 🤩 would definitely go back & highly recommended

Everything was perfect. The hosts Philippe and Nathalie were kind, gracious, warm and accommodating. A delicious breakfast was prepared every morning. Breakfast is ordered the previous day and there are many options to accommodate everyone's personal favorites. We chose to have breakfast in the garden every morning but you can also have it brought to your room. The garden behind the house is a little slice of heaven with a pool, hot tub, tropical plants, fire pit, many different seating areas, pool lounge area, long dining table, one in the shade and one in the sun, an outdoor kitchen, barbeque, games, .... We rented the top floor apartment with the two king-sized beds. It is tastefully decorated with everything you need. There is a small kitchen with all the appliances, coffee, tea, hot chocolate, a kitchen table which was nice to work on, a sitting area with large couch, tv, gas fire place, comfortable beds, many windows for cross ventilation which was great because the days were warm. The master bedroom has its own tv and wc and then there is a large full bathroom with tub, huge walk-in shower, bathrobes. There is easy parking in front of the house and the walk into town is only 15 minutes. La Paresse en Ville is a home away from home where you will feel welcome!

There is nothing not to like!

This is a very beautiful place to stay, just an easy 10 - 15 minute walk from the centre of Bayeux. The house and gardens are stunning. Our apartment was absolutely lovely! Breakfast was fresh, delicious and conveniently delivered to the door each morning. Nathalie and Philippe are wonderful hosts, who do everything they can to make the stay perfect.
