Welcome to Yip and Paul’s Village Gite at La Buslière 🇫🇷

Reconnect with nature, yourself & each other in this unforgettable oasis.

Our current accommodation comes in the form of a luxury converted vintage Horsebox truck, next to the Horsebox is The Piggery (La Porcherie) which has been converted into a stylish & private kitchen & bathroom.

All nestled in its own private courtyard overlooking the stunning views of the Normandy countryside.

Plus numerous areas inside & out to relax & unwind.

The space
We’ve lovingly converted our vintage Horsebox lorry into a luxury living space for your enjoyment. 🚛
The double bed area has a full spec mattress dressed in 100% French Linen Bedding and the option of an electric under-blanket should you want it in the colder months.

There is ample space to store all of your belongings and the living spaces are dressed in a stylish mix of mid century meets french antique.
The Horsebox has a luxurious solid oak floor and window reveals and is complete with a top of the range Mørso woodburner for those colder days & nights.

There are lots of places to chill out and relax and the space has its own 4G Wi-Fi connection.
Our 4 hens (The Girls of La Buslière) will provide you with fresh eggs.
We know that once you are here you will not want to leave, it’s just amazing and we feel very blessed to call the once abandoned village of La Buslière our home.

Guest access
Guests will arrive at our ornate iron gates and will drive around to their own secluded area within our hamlet.
They will have sole use of the entire secluded area where the Horsebox is sited and will have sole use of the Old Piggery just steps away which has just been lovingly converted into kitchen and bathroom areas.

Other things to note
We are not yet able to accommodate young children (under 12) or pets ( not even small well behaved ones.. sorry )

Bonjour! We are Yip + Paul, Originally from Kent back in England. In 2019 quite by chance we ended up buying an abandoned hamlet steeped in history in the stunning Normandy countryside called La Buslière. We are breathing new life into the hamlet which had been abandoned for almost 30 years! You can follow our journey on ‘Help! We Bought a Village’ on Channel 4 (UK TV) or our YouTube channel (Yip + Paul’s Help! We Bought a French Village)
