Looking for accom near Caen in May

Post by RobK »

Hi all
Can anyone recommend a good place to stay with secure bike parking for one night at end of May near Caen, France, ideally on the north side as I need to be on the beach the next day.

thanks in advance.

Yea I've done a few Ibis in the past but their website seems to be messing about and I can't get map view, also I can't find if they have secure parking or now.

Hi
Yes I can search online, and I have been, my questions is more around recommendations of places to stay rather than how to find somewhere.

thanks

Hope link works.

Booking.com Au Chti Normandy

We stopped here last Sept.
10 min to ferry. 20min walk to Sword beach.
Lovely lady running it. Clean, quiet and good value.
In residential street with drive and safe parking. We parked bike outside bedroom windows.

Hope that helps.
