Just a short walk away from all the important places of interest in Bayeux, including the local train staton, is Aggarthi Bed and Breakfast. The buildings and gardens are quiet and tranquil with real local character. The room was clean and comfortable with excellent wi-fi. However, I must reserve special thanks to our wonderful hostess, Jenna, who on our arrival presented us with a map of the town, explaining our location and how to get to the local museums and restaurants. She also told us about events that were happening locally in town during our stay. Jenna's hospitality is second to none and therefore breakfast every morning was a joy as we walked in to coffee, juices, cheese, ham and range of pastries. The scrambled eggs, made from the eggs laid by the hens on the grounds, were delicious. When we told her that we would be unable to make breakfast on our final day as we had an early train to catch, she presented us with coffees and croissants to take to the station. Jenna and her little dog made us smile everyday.

We can't heap enough praise on this lovely B&B and its gracious and vivacious propriétaire Jana (spelling may be off). The garden and its attendant dogs, cats, chickens, geese and rabbits are an oasis, especially so in the fragrant spring with wisteria and other flora in full bloom. The breakfast was magnificent, with a full panoply of coffee, juice (local apple/pear), pastries, yogurt, cheese, cold cuts, and eggs from the property's resident hens, all laid out at a delightful long table (the better for socializing with other guests) in the charming dining room. Add to that the ideal location minutes by foot from the train station, museums, eateries and other sights of the best preserved medieval town in Normandy and it could hardly be better.

Can't think of a thing from our perspective, but although essential amenities have been upgraded the buildings themselves are old (we were in the "new" 19th century building), and the stairway a bit steep, so if you don't like that sort of thing, try somewhere else.

We loved the estate atmosphere and amazing gardens. The rooms were clean, bright and comfortable. The host made our breakfast to order and even gave us ideas on how to extend our stay by stopping at Giverny on our way back to Paris. She overhead lifted our 2 carryons both up & down the spiral staircase to our room. We had the place to ourselves since it was early in the season. Our room included a rustic, quaint small shared kitchen with fridge. Our host made fresh scrambled eggs with eggs from her chickens and made to order our coffees. Everything was delicious!

The spiral staircase was a little daunting. Someone with limited mobility or very tall could have issues climbing stairs. A few cats & dogs were on the property so it may be an issue for those with allergies and I did not see it posted on the description.

The location is outstanding! VERY close to the heart of old Bayeux. It was an easy and enjoyable walk to all the restaurants and shops. The property is magical: relaxing, friendly and peaceful garden setting. Our host was so helpful, welcoming and service oriented. A beautiful respite from the outside world. The beautiful garden, house pets and chicken coop made the property feel like home. The breakfasts were outstanding!! Fresh, fresh, fresh bread, bakery and typical French breakfast fare. Delicious!

There is nothing we didn’t like.

Aggarthi Bed and Breakfast is a wonderful place to stay. Our room and bed were very comfortable. Diane, our host, is amazing. Diane made sure we were well taken care of. She prepares a great breakfast each morning and introduces the other guests at breakfast. It was nice talking to the other guests and their experiences in the Normandie area. As a plus, we enjoyed Picasso, Diane’s rescue dog! We enjoyed our stay, and if ever back in Bayeux, will stay again!

Can’t think of anything!

It was a very nice and centrally located area of Bayeux... super easy to get around to anywhere we wanted to go.... a very secure place to stay as well. Breakfast provided was fantastic and the vibe felt very home as the host made it feel that way. I love that the courtyard gave of a very 14th Century vibe and it made you feel as though you were participating in a past time.

the only thing I would suggest is the garden areas... I know that Europe is going through some sort of "let things go wild for the Bees" thing ... however, it was a bit hard to envision them looking like the website portrayed.

The breakfast was outstanding. Very fresh and good with all you could wish for. The host made fresh scrambled eggs on request. Fresh bakery products every day, fresh ham, fresh fruit, cereals, cheese and different spreads/jam, youghurt, juice, coffe, tea, hot chocolate etc. etc. The breakfast was around the large dining room table so we met a couple of nice famillies from the USA and UK. The host was really nice and very helpful with advice on visits in Bayeux and in the greater Normandy area. She also had cold water, juice, beer and cidre available in a common kitchen place around the clock.

The property is well located and just a block from the Bayeux Tapestry and two blocks from the town center. The location has a beautiful courtyard with flowers and places to relax kept up by the owner. And there is parking available too. The breakfasts were pleasant affairs each morning with pastry, bread, eggs, and more. There was even strawberry rhubarb jam: a personal favorite. Truly on of the best B&B’s that I have ever stayed at

I’m at a loss to find a response for this: everything met standards

Aggarthi is a hidden gem. Walk through the entrance into an old courtyard and experience beautiful relaxing gardens. A real retreat in the heart of Bayeux. The property is unique, authentic and very comfortable. However it was the welcome on arrival and for the duration of our stay, from our host Diana, which was equally exceptional. Diana provided information on the local area and beyond and was such a friendly and obliging host with a wonderful sense of humour. The breakfast room in the main house is a sight to behold and the breakfast table was laden with a feast each day. We cooked in the guest kitchen one evening and ate Al fresco at the large outdoor dining area overlooking the superb garden. Even the resident dogs and cats pottering around in the garden were super friendly! A fantastic place to be based to explore beautiful Bayeux and the Normandy coast.

The property is conveniently located near the train station (a 10 minute walk). It is near the cathedral and is a short walk to both downtown and the tapestry museum, and about a 15 minute walk to the Normandy museum (go see it). The property has a nice courtyard area with many plants/flowers. We had a bottle of wine and enjoyed the quiet setting. The morning breakfast is very good - eggs, bread, yogurt, coffee, juice, and hot cocoa (my son loved it). The host is amazing - she will go out of her way to ensure your stay is wonderful! She is quite a jewel...

The room was clean, but the bathroom could have been a little cleaner where the heat registers were at (spider webs and a little dusty) - however the main parts of the bathroom was clean.
