Table d'hôtes round the convivial table is the inspiration behind this B&B – which, being perfectionists, this couple do so well. Dinner, locally sourced, sounds delicious, while vegetables come from an immaculate potager. The interiors of their new but traditional village house are equally manicured: the L-shaped living room; the bedrooms, colour-themed and French-cosy, two on the ground floor, their tiles topped by rugs, two under the eaves with honey-coloured boards; all large and super-comfortable. Historic St Omer is a must – for music and markets, bric-a-brac and breweries. Tremendous value.

Guest feedback
"A perfect place to stay. A charming couple who are most welcoming. Giles is eager to be sure guests are well informed about the local attractions and Jacqueline is a master cook.. Very peaceful yet not off the beaten track. Loved it."

"Although our arrival took them by surprise (because I had made a mistake in my French in our prior communication) Gilles and Jacqueline lost no time in welcoming us warmly. We loved the large prettily furnished bedroom and much enjoyed our friendly conversation over breakfast the next morning. Thank you Gilles and Jacqueline: you are exemplary hosts."

"We stayed for one n ight on our way to Paris. We had a lovely comfortable room with ensuite. The garden is lovely and so peaceful. Gilles and Jaqueline are delightful hosts. We had elected to say for supper and we were so pleased that we had. WE had an kir before supper made with cider, which was unusual and delicious, we had a four course meal with wine and every course was perfect The value for money was amazing. The breakfast was delicious too with fresh fruit salad and home made jam. We will definately return"

"Stayed for one night en route from Italy/Chamonix. Just perfect, don't know how we've missed this other years! Jacqueline and Giles are charming hosts, as is their eldest son, who was there for he weekend. The room, the house, the garden, all perfect. We ate a delicious dinner with the family, and enjoyed lively and informative conversation. The breakfast of fresh fruit, croissants, bread, homemade brioche and homemade jams was just as delicious as the dinner the previous evening. If you have time I would suggest you stay for longer"

"My wife and I stayed with Jacqueline and Gilles for one night. The room was very nice, clean, well decorated and a very comfortable king size bed. We had dinner with all nine of the other guests. The food and wine were very good. We will stay again."

"A comfortable and well equipped room, and a tasty evening meal and breakfast. Gilles and Jacquline were both welcoming and good company, making sure conversation flowed easily between all the guests, and smoothing any awkwardness arising from the range of languages spoken. Very convenient for people travelling to and from Calais, as well as for people wanting to stay for a while in an interesting area. Gilles, a keen historian, was knowledgeable and informative about local places of interest."

"Friendly hosts, very comfortable and large room and, most of all, delicious food. We spent 3 nights here and most of our fellow guests were on multiple repeat visits which says much for our host and hostess. Evenings spent over the dinner table were much enjoyed even if our French was a little challenged at times. Gilles and Jacqueline made sure we were included at all times.
A very convenient and convivial stay."

"Our overnight stay at Les Dormes, with Jaqueline and Gilles was excellent from a number of viewpoints. A very clean and spacious room with all the facilities a couple needs after a long journey from the south. We joined them for evening dinner, the food and menu being of a high standard, coupled with good conversation despite of our own limited French. In the morning there followed a tasty and hearty breakfast to set us well for our long and return journey to England. Undoubtedly a French B&B to return to.

"Giles and Jacqueline run a wonderful, friendly B & B. Rooms were excellent, dinner was wonderful and breakfast was great. They were relaxed and efficient, kind and professional. They put so much effort into this and they do it so well. We intend to return!"

"What a fantastic find! Spacious, light & clean accomodation, both inside & out. We took the opportunity to relax on the patio and listen to the birds, which was the only sound we could hear. In the evening, our hosts welcomed us into their own dining room where a combination of fine food, well chosen wine and friendly conversation made for a very pleasant evening. Definately a good stopping point to relax and break up a long drive."

"Definitely one of the best B&B's we have stayed in. Very comfortable, delicious food and Gilles and Jacqueline are the most thoughtful, generous and entertaining hosts.
Unqualified recommmendation."
