lovely little Manoir ideal for families/friends, in the bay Mont-Saint-Michel

Authentic Manor in a Quiet Setting – Families and Friends – Mont-Saint-Michel Bay
The Manoir de Crux is a historic building full of rustic charm, nestled in the heart of Mont-Saint-Michel Bay. It can accommodate 9 or more guests and is set in a large enclosed garden, surrounded by fields and old trees, including a 400-year-old lime tree, with panoramic views over the Normandy countryside.
The manor has preserved some features of a historic residence, including exposed beams and a traditional interior staircase. It provides modern comfort suitable for an authentic stay, but the focus is on historical atmosphere and rustic simplicity.
Manoir de Crux is ideal for guests seeking authenticity, calm, and nature. It is less suitable for those expecting modern hotel standards or perfect uniformity.
Activities and Leisure
Summer: pétanque, volleyball, relaxing in sun loungers or hammock, baking in the wood-fired oven
Winter: cozy evenings by the fireplace, board games, reading, shared moments
Facilities and Spaces
Fully equipped kitchen
Living room with fireplace
Bright veranda opening onto the garden
Two bathrooms, including a newly renovated bathroom
Bedrooms on the 1st and 2nd floors, accessible via a traditional interior staircase
Welcome booklet with practical information and local recommendations.
Nearby, kayaks, bicycles, and e-bikes can be rented to explore Mont-Saint-Michel Bay. Bikes can be delivered on-site. Wellness massages at home are also available, by prior booking.
For larger groups, the neighboring gîte Le Mélèze (6 guests – listing n°2062664) can be booked in addition. The two gîtes are completely independent, with separate entrances, terraces, and outdoor areas.
Thanks to the proximity of the main road towards Granville, the manor offers easy access to Mont-Saint-Michel, Normandy beaches, Saint-Malo, and many tourist sites in Normandy and Brittany.
Cleaning
The property is carefully cleaned before each arrival. Despite all precautions, minor traces related to the building’s age, surrounding nature, or outdoor environment may occasionally be observed, such as cobwebs, flies, or other insects, and do not constitute a cleanliness defect.

Beautiful chateau in a beautiful location

One of the beds on second floor was uncomfortable, trip hazards for young children, particularly in kitchen area. On the plus side, the chateau is very well equipped, beautiful crockery, dishes and bowls. Stunning location, historic chateau with ancient aspects. We really enjoyed our stay and thank Katia and Gerhard for their attention to detail. We thoroughly recommend this property and its location.

A piece of heaven!

What a dream! Everything about our stay was amazing. The home was so unique, once in a lifetime stay. Perfect space for our large family of 8. We were able to explore small towns around us and Mont Saint Michel with ease. But ask our kids, they would’ve stayed at this home, yard and game room forever! Katia was the sweetest host, giving us tips, being attentive and so warm to our kids. It felt like saying bye to family as we left this morning.

D-Day trip 2024

I have to say, after staying in many hotels and properties around the UK and Europe. This by far was the best one, well maintained, clean and picturesque. From the moment we drove up the tree lined driveway to the moment we drove back down it to go back to the UK, we felt at home. Beautiful location and very peaceful. Would highly recommend anyone to stay here. Will stay in the property if i'm in the area again

Countryside at its best!

This could not have been anymore perfect for our family gathering and visit around the Normandy area. Set back on a quiet cul-de-sac just 10 minutes from the town of Avranches, this lovingly restored Norman estate had everything we needed. Two sides to rent in one large building which accommodated all of us very well. You have the option of renting out one side or both, depending on your needs. You can relax in complete privacy, anywhere on the property which is surrounded by fields.There is a beautiful view of Avranches in the distance, as well as Mont St. Michel. Lovely quiet roads to walk around the area. Donkeys and cows are there to greet you. Plenty of room in the two sides of the estate for all of us who numbered 14 over the weekend. All amenities are there and the owners, Dominique and Isabelle are just the next house down should you need anything. Very helpful with any of our questions and they have all the brochures and tips of what to see. available in the house. We enjoyed ping pong, tossing a football, the outdoor garden for relaxed meals with plenty of seating for everyone. Well-stocked kitchen(s) with seating in both the dining and kitchen areas. Bedrooms are comfy and clean. Do bring your own linens and towels if you want to save on an additional expense. I would go back again and again. Mary and family, Ottawa, Ontario

Quiet setting with lovely views and confortable house near Avranches.

So close to a pleasant town, Avranches, which is also not far form Mt St Michel. There is ample space around the house Le Meleze, the smaller one of the two which we got assigned (four of us). We stayed for one week and had a nice week in this part of Normandie.

Das Anwesen liegt idyllisch und sehr ruhig, der weitläufige Garten ist ein echtes Highlight – besonders für Kinder, die gerne draußen spielen (Outdoorspiele, viel Platz zum Toben etc). Die Umgebung bietet viele tolle Ausflugsziele. Der Wohn- und Essbereich überzeugte mit rustikalem Charme, die große Holztafel war ideal für unsere Gruppen.Weniger erfreulich war der Zustand von Küche und Bad: Schimmel in der Dusche, stark verschmutzte Lichtschalter, Kalkrückstände, Spinnweben, Fliegendreck in der Küchenlampe, Restwasser in der Kaffeemaschine, Lebensmittelreste im Backofen und abgelaufene Vorräte mit MHD 2023. Diese Mängel trübten den Gesamteindruck deutlich. Dafür wurde uns eine Teilerstattung gewährt. Laut Vermieter ist ein neues Bad im Bau, der Schimmel soll kurzfristig beseitigt werden.Was wir gerne vorher gewusst hätten: Eines der Bäder ist ein Durchgangszimmer, beide WCs sind fensterlos und eng – für kleine Kinder eher unpraktisch. Die Wärmepumpe für Warmwasser springt nachts hörbar an. Ein Schlafzimmer mit Doppelbett unter dem Dach hat keine Tür. WLAN und Mobilfunk sind ziemlich schwach. Fazit: Ein Haus mit viel Potenzial und tollen Außenanlagen. Nach den angekündigten Renovierungen sicher eine lohnende Wahl – besonders für Familien. Bei unserem Besuch leider unzureichend sauber.

Nous venons de passer un séjour vraiment très agréable au Petit Manoir.Accueil tout à fait sympathique. Un lieu d'une grande tranquillité. Tout est là pour agrémenter le séjour : jeux, détente, repos et chaises longues mais aussi l'atmosphère idéale pour accueillir les amis, rien ne manque en cuisine et pour les grandes tablées. La végétation généreuse protège de la chaleur. Sans oublier la chance d'apercevoir un lièvre au petit matin.

Escapade intemporelle près du Mont St Michel

Les pierres du manoir sont chargées d'histoire. Certains aspects de la déco sont intemporels. Idéal comme pied à terre pour visiter les environs, Avranche, Granville, Bayeux et bien sur sans oublier le Mont St Michel. Concernant le lieu de séjour tout est fait et bien pensé. Pour les Equipements en ustensiles de cuisine, vaisselle etc.. tout y est et même plus !! Jeux et activités diverses sont présentes y compris le terrain de pétanque. Seul bémol : les salles de bains un peu vieillottes... mais une nouvelle salle de bain est en cours de réalisation.

Séjour près du Mont Saint Michel

Nous avons passé une sympathique semaine de vacances en famille à Tirepied et ses environs, environ 20 minutes du Mont Saint Michel et 50 mns de Saint Malo. Le manoir a beaucoup de cachet et très calme. Les hôtes nous ont assisté sur toutes nos questions et il ne manquait rien sur place. Petite panne de wifi due à une coupure de courant mais à part ça nous n'avons pas eu de soucis durant notre séjour qui fut très agréable.
