Bessin Location

Absolutely recommend using this car rental location! Alexandre was extremely kind and helpful and made it an easy process to arrange a car rental from another country. I traveled to Bayeux in October with my family and highly recommend using Alexandre instead of a renting in Caen and driving to Bayeux. I've done it both ways and it was so much easier to work with Alexandre and rent in Bayeux. Our train from Paris didn't arrive until 1pm on a Saturday and he even stayed late to pick us up from the station. Pay the extra for pick up/drop off from the train station and make your life easier by renting your car from Alexandre!

Highly recommend this company. Alexandre was very accommodating and even picked us up and dropped us off at the train station. The price was very reasonable. We also realized we needed a bigger vehicle when we arrived and he was very helpful with that. I appreciated his continual email communication before my trip to France.

We discovered this rental when the major car rental agencies were booked up and we wanted a car for the day. Alexandre picked us up at our hotel and dropped us back when the rental was complete. Very quick check in and drop off. Car was newer and very clean. Overall great experience.

Great experience from start to finish. We booked by email from New Zealand. Alexandre was responsive, helpful and professional.When we arrived, pick up was easy, efficient and friendly. A great car, with which we enjoyed exploring Normandie. The return was also very straight forward. Wouldn't hesitate to use again. Highly recommend.

I was very nervous renting a car in a different country but Alexandre made the process very easy and straightforward. Everyone we dealt with here was very kind. I would rent from here again 100%. They also speak great english so it's tourist-friendly!

I reserved a car with Alexandre before our 3-day trip to Bayeux, based on a recommendation from the staff at our hotel, Villa Lara. When we arrived at Bessin Location (just minutes from downtown Bayeux) to pick up the car, Alexandre was very nice to work with. We rented a lovely Peugeot for a drive to Mont-Saint-Michel, Saint Malo and Utah Beach. The car was perfect for our needs, the price was very reasonable, and Alexandre kindly offered to drop us off at the train station when we returned the car. It could not have been easier and I highly recommend Bessin Location.

One of the best ways to get around the city is by renting a car and Bessin Location provided us with a great service. Due to our prior communication with him, Alexandre was at the store to deliver our car despite it being a holiday. The entire process was seamless and hassle-free; I would highly recommend it!

Excellent service. Very friendly and helpful. We were visiting Normandy area for the day with our large family. Alexandre provided shuttle service from train station in Bayeux, and gave us a van to use all day, to travel to all the sites. Rental process was very easy and inexpensive. Van was new and clean. Beautiful area, can’t wait to return!

We just rented a car from Bessin Location in Bayeux for a 4-day stay in Normandie (with our base in Bayeux). This is a one-man business, so it's more personal than most of the other rental car shops we've dealt with. Alex, who owns the business, was just wonderful. The good news for non-French speaking tourists is that he speaks pretty good English, so communication is not a problem. He picked is up at our hotel and brought us to his office; did everything possible to help us resolve an issue; went with us to fill the tank after we returned the car (which took diesel and he wanted to make sure we put in the right gas) and even told us not to worry about returning the car the night our contract ended; we could return it the next morning. (When have you ever heard THAT before?) Alex takes great pride in his cars and his business and is a warm, lovely person with a great sense of humor. Next time we go, there's no question who we'll rent from. Note: if you use a debit card to fill the tank, gas stations charge the price of the refill PLUS an additional $215+ charge as a deposit. Do not freak out. A few days after the refill charge goes through, the deposit will disappear. Apparently this is standard operating procedure here (and in other European cities.)

Fantastic experience from start to finish! alexandre was communicative, responsive, picked us up and dropped us off, and the car was great. Highly recommend.
