Located in the quiet market town of Sourdeval, The Courtyard Garden at We Care Home Away is a truly inclusive holiday property in the heart of Normandy, designed by and for people with real accessibility needs. This fully adapted and wheelchair-friendly holiday property offers a calm, welcoming, and highly practical space for disabled guests, carers, neurodiverse individuals, families, and elderly travellers looking for a relaxing break in rural France.

Sleeping up to six guests, the property features three thoughtfully designed bedrooms. The main accessible bedroom on the ground floor includes a profiling double bed with a ceiling track hoist, a wheelchair-height clothes rail, and a TV. It connects to an ensuite wetroom with a roll-in shower, raised toilet, handrails, and multiple options for seating and support. The second bedroom is a single room created with neurodiverse guests in mind, decorated in soft, muted tones with minimal furnishings, a connected games console, and noise-cancelling headphones. Downstairs, the spacious basement master bedroom includes a double bed, tea and coffee facilities, a refrigerator, and access to a private bathroom with a bath, WC and basin. The lounge also features a modern sofa bed, suitable for one or two extra guests if needed.

The wheelchair-accessible kitchen includes a low-level oven, hob, sink, dishwasher, air fryer, washing machine, and fridge with freezer compartment. Adaptive features such as easy-grip controls, adapted cutlery, a food blender, and a sippy cup are all available. Dining space includes a bench and chairs for up to six. Plug sockets and light switches throughout are set at accessible heights with visual markers for the visually impaired.

Outside, a private decked courtyard garden provides a peaceful setting for outdoor dining, complete with a dedicated gravel toilet area for assistance dogs. The home also includes useful equipment such as a Repose pressure relief mattress, weighted blanket, slide boards, a wakey shakey alarm, touch-sensitive lamps, communication cards, and more, so you don’t need to travel with a van full of kit. If there’s something specific you need, just ask in advance, and the host will do their best to accommodate.

This dog-friendly Normandy property is just a short stroll from local bakeries, cafés, and Sourdeval’s traditional Tuesday market, where you’ll find local cheese, cider, calvados, and hot food from popular food trucks. Just 20 minutes away is Vire, home to a lively market, swimming pool, bowling alley, and a variety of restaurants and shops. The medieval town of Domfront, with its cobbled streets and annual festival in late August, offers a magical step back in time—imagine a real-life Harry Potter village, easily navigable with a power-assisted wheelchair. Every Wednesday evening during the summer, live music by the lake just 10km away brings the community together for free outdoor entertainment.

For day trips, the Normandy beaches, WWII museums, and Caen Memorial Museum offer powerful insights into the region’s rich history, with over 30 attractions dedicated to the Second World War within driving distance.

Rates start at €140 per night, with a minimum 7-night stay. This property is perfect for families or small groups looking for a wheelchair-accessible holiday in France. Please note: tourist tax is charged in addition and calculated based on occupancy.
