For our FIVE night stay, only One small roll of toilet paper was provided. There was a minuscule amount of soap in the bathroom, and no soap or shampoo in the shower. We had to search all the cupboards to find the towels. The bed linen is rough, and the pillow cases don’t fit North American style pillows. On the positive side our host was easy to communicate with, and when asked she gave us extra soap and toilet paper as well as some detergent for the washing machine (much appreciated).I could not find any reference in English to the cleaning fee, but we paid it nonetheless

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely place. Janine, the owner, was so kind and helpful. We took the bus into Rouen, and it was close by and easy to use. There are two markets nearby plus a weekly farmer’s market. The kitchen was well stocked and we ate several dinners in after spending full days driving around the easily accessible countryside. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you, Janine!

Great stay near Rouen

A lovely place with a welcoming and helpful host who lives on site. Rouen is easily accessed with frequent buses. The place is secure and quiet (The church next door only rang its bells on Sunday) with a very pretty garden. The garden can only be accessed up a flight of steps outside so not accessible for all. Everything was as described, although the Internet is not fast. We had a great stay at Janine’s place exploring Rouen and the surrounding area.

Lovely apartment

We had 3 lovely nights at Janine's apartment, and Janine was delightful to work with. The apartment was cozy, and it was only a 15 minute drive to the heart of Rouen. It was ideal to be so close to the city, yet in a quiet smaller area. The apartment was very comfortable and furnished nicely, very clean & tidy. We'd love to visit again! Thank you, Janine!

Excellent stay near Rouen

Janine was the perfect hostess and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Darnetal with its easy public transport links to Rouen just 10 minutes by bus from the Marie. The gite was comfortable, well equipped and the quiet garden a wonderfully relaxing place to sit and enjoy a glass of wine upon our return after a busy day sightseeing. Thank you for a lovely stay we would love to return one day.

Parfait.

Janine Auvray was the perfect host. Une tres gentille dame. The accommodations were very comfortable and I enjoyed sleeping late. It was much nicer to stay near Rouen but not in Rouen. Darnetal est une petite ville pres de Rouen. Since there weren't many restaurants I bought un biftek from Le Boulanger and une baguette and des tomates et from age down the street and made a delicious dinner one evening. Enjoyed dinner in Rouen one day. Would definitely recommend for one or two people.

Das Künstlerhaus liegt in einem Vorort von Rouen, dennoch ist es nachts absolut ruhig. Es hat Charme und bietet auf engen Raum jeden Komfort. Es eignet sich sehr gut als Ausgangspunkt für Besichtigungen von Rouen ( sehr leicht mit dem Stadtbus erreichbar ), den wundervollen Abteien St. Martin und Jumieges - selbst der Traumgarten von Monet ist gut erreichbar.Die Gastgeberin ist sehr zuvorkommend. hilfreich und freundlich.Empfehlung für eine ungewöhnliche und schöne Unterkunft!

De l'arrivée au départ le séjour fut exemplaire d'autant que Janine nous a conseillé sur les musées et nous a consacré du temps pour des échanges et une visite de sa collection privée de tableaux. Le lieu est propre, fonctionnel, agréable avec son jardin, le quartier est calme et sa proximité avec Rouen en fait un hébergement idéal pour un séjour.Merci pour tout et au plaisir.

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans ce gîte très confortable. Bien aménagé avec tout le confort disponible. Un jardin, une terrasse, très appréciables en ces derniers jours d'été. Une très belle maison ancienne, où vécut un peintre et lithographe renommé, Marcel Peltier. Bien situé, à proximité de Rouen, accessible en voiture et surtout en transports en commun. Parking devant la maison ou près de l'église qui est en face. Nous avons été très bien accueillis par sa propriétaire, Janine, très disponible si besoin. Nous recommandons vivement ce gîte.
