The lush garden shelters bees, bantams, sleek cats and a phenomenal variety of shrubs and flowering plants. Madame tends to her guests, with respect for everyone’s privacy, offers guidance on hiking, and there’s tennis and fishing nearby. Bedrooms, one on the ground floor with its own entrance to the garden, and one under a sloping ceiling, are large and beamed, filled with antiques and pictures.
Breakfast includes freshly-delivered bread from the bakery in Valmont, croissants, homemade cakes, yogurts and jams along with hard boiled eggs - help yourselves to anything for a picnic later on. You're welcome to use the dining room, fix a simple meal, or sit by the wood-burner in the sitting room with a glass of Normandy cider from the fridge - this is a relaxed, generous place.
Valmont village is 1km away for château gardens, shops and two restaurants, one with a Michelin star. The cliffs at Étretat are 20 minutes away.

Guest feedback
"A gem of a place. Delightful house and gardens, every comfort and facility one could wish for in a B&B. Be warned that, on a Monday night (as so often in France) you may not find a restaurant open in Valmont."

"A very warm welcome with welcome drink and tour of the beautiful garden. Really comfortable beds and plenty of space for 4 of us in the family room.
Breakfast was delicious - freshly picked mirabelles from the garden and home made jams of many varieties. A thoroughly enjoyable 'last night in France' at the end of the holidays. "

"Francoise and Dominique were fabulous, unintrusive, kind hosts. The house is beautiful, tranquil and has wonderful energy. The birds, cats, chickens and home honey make for a wonderful stay.
It is more like 40 minutes drive to get to Etretat and the local restaurant, L'Agriculture is not really worth going to. We ate out in the day and dined in at night, eating lovely salad ingredients and French bread. The hosts are kindly accomodating of this. Thank you for a relaxing stay."

"A beautiful spot, a comfortable, spacious and charming room, a delightful,helpful host, and rooms that were cat-free. The breakfast was delicious with home-made jams and amazing home-produced honey. My cat allergy is serious so I was much relieved at Dominiques efforts to keep the cats out of the B&B area. She understands its importance. A lovely stay.

"Superb,fantastic,relaxing and charming. Dominique and Francois are wonderful hosts.they are so helpful and the breakfasts are fabulous. We were made to feel so welcome. I chose this B and B after much searching, as this was to be a special few days for my partner and I could not have found a better place. The house is wonderful, and very clean, it is a good base to visit other places such as être tat, honfleur and Giverny the home of Monet so all in all a great week and we will be back for more of Dominique and Francois hospitality. Thank you both ."

"A lovely relaxing B&B in a character-filled thatched cottage, set in a beautiful garden. The cliffs of Etretat are close by and the surrounding Normandy countryside a delight.
Dominique and Francois are perfect hosts with nothing being too much trouble. Advice about how to get the hire car back to the confusing Rouen (for us anyway) and other tips were invaluable. Plentiful breakfasts of homemade produce every day were a highlight.
It really felt like we were on holiday, having a late afternoon drink in the garden with the obligatory attendant cat or two. We loved it here and in retrospect wished we'd stayed longer rather than going on to Honfleur where our stay was no where near as good. We'd love to come back to Valmont sometime. Highly recommended."

"Delightful place. Were made most welcome throughout our stay. The garden room was just perfect for our needs as we had direct access onto a patio. We also had the use of a lovely lounge should you wish to use it. Good restaurant locally which you could walk to via a country lane, in ten minutes, rather than the roadside which was a real bonus."
