First night of 7 night trip to France.  Stayed in this lovely inn.  Very hospitable hosts and friendly dog.  Beautiful grounds, charming, spacious, clean and comfortable room (marguerite suite) and sumptuous breakfast.  Perfectly located within walking distance to all major sites.  Would come back in a heartbeat.  

Merveilleux—highly recommend 

We stayed one night at this excellent bed and breakfast, 
The house is a quirky old building with beautiful views across the countryside and overlooking the property’s large garden with the wallabies
It is well worth spending a while exploring the grounds with the streams and old watermill, although it wasn’t working while we stayed
The family were friendly, limited English, but communication was not difficult and 3 friendly little dogs
The room was good for a B&B, bed comfortable and bathroom adequate 
Arrival time is strictly not before 3, parking on site a short walk to the gardens and village, we didn’t need a car whilst in Giverny 
Credit cards not accepted
Buffet breakfast, hot croissants, eggs, ham, baguette, fruit, cereal, plenty to eat
I would recommend

Bed and breakfast 5 minutes from Monet’s gardens

Beware of the attacking dog. The dog nipped at Guest’s heels and in one case bit a guest, the dog continued to run free inside and outside house. 

This has lovely grounds, close to Monet’s 
Garden, but there is no feeling that you are welcome, quite the contrary, there are so many rules it is absurd - like no wine or food in your rooms. Hello, this is France. There is no request by a guest too small to refuse. 

Beware of dog

A real ‘marmite’ place that you will either love or hate, it totally divided myself and my husband, hence the average rating as a compromise. My husband loved the historic old restored watermill buildings, their good breakfast and friendly dogs. The host didn’t speak much English and we don’t speak much French, but he was very helpful at check-in, giving us a map of the village and making recommendations on good places to eat and ones to avoid, everything only a few minutes walk away so an excellent location. As for what I didn’t like, I was very annoyed and disappointed by booking what I thought was an ensuite room to find it was actually private facilities but across a communal corridor not as described, the wi-fi wasn’t working during our stay and as they don’t accept credit cards, so we were as others have said approached to pay a deposit by PayPal with the balance in cash which wasn’t convenient when we had booked a whole series of one nights stops through France on booking.com for simplicity. Then if you think you have drunk too much local French wine and see kangaroos, you haven’t as one of their paddocks has wallabies.........so definitely very quirky !

Very quirky French B&B 

I booked through Booking.com for two nights. I immediately got an email from Stephanie saying "cancel" and book directly with her it'll be cheaper, but don't tell Booking.com like some Australians had previously done. I didn't like the approach and refused. I then received several quite rude emails demanding I pay a deposit through Paypal, which I don't tend to use, because she doesn't deal with bank cards. I explained that I book through an online company because it is easy but this didn't now appear to be very easy! I did pay the deposit and all went quiet.
I thought she might have forgotten the exchange, but clearly not. When we arrived she asked if we spoke French and answered herself with "Yes" then proceeded to talk at breakneck speed in French making it difficult to understand. She wrote down codes to get in the gate, I didn't understand why and said we didn't have a car and she said "are you going to climb over the gate?" She refused to give us a key to our room, I couldn't understand why, she wouldn't explain in English, although clearly she spoke it perfectly well, and there was no safe in the room.  In the morning she almost shouted "Bonjour" in our faces. 
I presume the rather brusque man who was around at breakfast was her husband, all he said to anyone who wasn't French was "Bonjour The ou Cafe?" and then went and watched the TV. 
She insists on being paid in cash. I don't think this is an appropriate way to trade in the 21st Century, people don't tend to carry lots of cash around, and I didn't see a cash machine in the village. I'll leave you to speculate as to why she only wants cash, but it certainly isn't to help her guests.
It's all rather sad because the mill and grounds are rather interesting, the room was pleasant, and the breakfast was good, but we didn't feel welcome and regretted not cancelling when we had that first encounter. It's very convenient for Monet's House and Garden, although if I went again I'd avoid the Moulin like the plague!

The Moulin is lovely shame about the Hosts

This was my first time visiting France. My wife and I have travelled to many countries experiencing different people and different cultures and you always hear that old saying French people are rude. Well I'm gonna have to say this is totally incorrect from my first visit to France. We had a fantastic time, Stephanie & her family really made us feel very welcome including our  friends with one celebrating a very special birthday. His birthday meal we had at the B&B was an amazing evening with wine & drinks included.
We all are a big fan of Monet and spent our time enjoying Giverny & Monet's House & Gardens including the Lily pond- AMAZING, I'm a semi-pro photographer and it took me a while before actually taking any photos.
Yes the B&B does only take CASH and after an explanation you'll understand why, so bring your cash, pay and enjoy this very different and quirky B&B.
