The Normandy region & Grandmesnil area There is a wealth of history in the area, from the Landing Beaches to William the Conqueror's castle. Summer temperatures here are generally warmer than in England, and the hour in advace makes the evenings light until after ten p.m.
The market at St.Pierre sur Dives( 10 minutes by car) is the largest in the area and is held on Monday morning, and the Saturday market at Falaise is well worth a visit. There are many antiques fairs and " vide greniers" , which are like a car boot sale, held in the surrounding towns and villages at weekends.
Grandmesnil is a small village nestling at the bottom of a ridge. There are no shops in the village, but Trun ( 5 minutes by car) has shops, bars and a supermarket. Larger supermarkets can be found at Argentan and Falaise, both about 15 minutes by car.
Argentan has a direct rail link to Paris, and a day trip to the capital is a great day out. There are impressive firework displays held locally and all the local villages hold their own "fete.
Why is Lupain Holiday Rentals the only holiday rental company to verify the ownership of holiday accommodation? Research has shown that not all advertisers are genuine. There have been cases where people have booked holiday accommodation only to find out it does not exist.
This sort of ‘scam’ is hard to comprehend but these days fraudsters are coming up with ever more imaginative ways of obtaining money by deception from innocent people like you. We do not want holidaymakers who book with us to fall victim to this type of scheme. Money is mostly hard earned we know, so taking a holiday is usually a major expense. In addition, we do not want you to remember us for a shattered dream.
Therefore, in order to protect you we have introduced our Owner Verification Scheme. We ask all holiday home advertisers to submit proof that they own the property they are advertising. Only when we are satisfied that an advertiser and their property is genuine do we add our Green Shield to their property advert. Apart from being a deterrent, it also encourages advertisers to make sure they verify their property, giving you peace of mind when you make your booking.
If you want to make a booking look for the Green Shield on the top right of the property advert, if you do not see our Green Shield it may mean we have not yet completed the verification process. We normally complete this process within a few days if no verification is forthcoming the advert is removed.
We take this Owner Verification Scheme very seriously for your protection. If you have any doubts about the validity of an advert or misrepresentation please contact us with your concerns.
Please note, Lupain Holiday Rentals does not verify the advertisement content placed on this website by property owners, nor do we offer any guarantee as to the correctness of the advertising information placed on this website by third parties.
