Driving up to this authentic French farmhouse-turned-B&B was one of our trip's most memorable moments! Damien and Steve were phenomenal hosts, and everything about our stay there was fabulous. Our room was beautiful..(.the heated towel rack was a delight)....breakfast was delicious and lovely.... afternoon tea was appreciated...we even had wi-fi....and conversations with these two warm, charming owners were memorable. We... More

We had a really good time with Steve and Damian, hospitality is great, they have lots of tips for sightseeing and are truly interested in how your day has been. The B&B is perfectly located for exploring Normandy, close to the d-day beaches, Bayeux and mt saint michel. The breakfast (they have a menu with 5 different choices) is served... More

My girlfriend and I stayed at La Mare Palu back in June (sorry for the late review!!). Damien & Steve were both great. Helpful, friendly and witty !! We stayed in the Bateau room which was superb with views overs the front and the rear garden. Will definitely be staying in the future. Cheers...... More

We stayed at "Palu" for two nights in early August.This is a real gem, I'd read the reviews and had high expectations....they were easily surpassed. Everything is just perfect but most of all your hosts Damien and Steve, they must have heard all the questions a hundred times yet they still manage to be supremely helpful with charm and humour....

Steve and Damien greeted us with tea and coffee and we felt immediately at home. The room was very spacious and the guest lounge was a good spot to chat to the other guests and use the Internet. We were there over National Day and they contacted sites on our behalf so we knew that the sites we wanted to... More

From June 6th until 12th 2010 we stayed for 7 nights at La Mare Palu. It was prima! (Dutch for very good). My husband is very tall (1.96 meter / 6.51 ft) so we needed a bed that was long enough. Our bed in the bateau room was perfect! The room was very clean and comfortable. It was striking that... More

Don't quite understand what all the fuss is about. It's a nice enough place, friendly and clean. But nothing special and with a sub par breakfast: the omelet was dry, the orange juice a kiddie box and the coffee instant. More

We came to Normandy on a bike trip and arrived at La Mare Palu to a welcoming "cuppa" and chat with Damien. Damien and Steve could not do enough for us, even to the point of giving us a lift to the local restaurant one night and their friendly banter made us really feel at home. The farmhouse is an...

Just came back from 4 days at La mare palu. Could not fault Damien and Steve for hospitality and service. Beds were comfy, breakfast was excellent and the guys could not do enough for us. A fantastic stay at a great location to tour the battlefields. Would recommend this place to anyone. Will definitely be going back More
