La Clef Decamp.fr unveils an exceptional new look for its exceptional gîtes.

Managing and creating exceptional gîtes in Lower Normandy, in the Cotentin or in the Bay of Somme, is wonderful—but ensuring that our guests, who seek escape, comfort, and authenticity, enjoy a smooth and user-friendly online experience is even better!
Like the captivating stories behind each gîte, the digital redesign of La Clef Decamp was born from a story of encounters and shared passions.
Let us tell you the story of this digital adventure!


A dream team dedicated to the exceptional gîtes of La Clef Decamp

It all began on a day in September 2018.

  • An enriching and inspiring seminar.
  • A small group of “working women” eager to gain knowledge as they launched their businesses.
  • Clélance, an outstanding business coach.
  • A dream location… Granville, at Villa Les Roches Grises.
  • And one of the participants… the host of the place—myself, Jennifer.

In our Norman gîte facing the sea, we hosted the seminar organized by my childhood friend, Clémence Serraz.
This entrepreneurial energy gave me a real boost, and I found myself dreaming in the face of such constructive motivation.
An idea began to grow in my ever-active mind…
After renovating the gîtes, the time had come to completely redesign the La Clef Decamp website.
Streamlining our operations, providing a simple and efficient booking service, and creating a website that our customers will enjoy browsing – that’s my new motto!
Always striving to improve, my husband and I are committed to giving ourselves the means to keep moving forward.


Always offering the best for our gîtes and our website

The least I can say… is that I was really starting from scratch!
My daily routine revolved around dealing with a mountain of paperwork.
Loose sheets covered with hastily written notes—reservations, contact details—were constantly traveling with me in the car, stuffed into cardboard folders with worn-out elastic bands, moving from one gîte to another.
The very idea of productivity felt like a dream to me, yet it seemed completely out of reach.
Let’s keep the suspense a little longer before revealing a modernization that will delight you!
The first providential encounter:
Caroline Gélin — founder of Socle, an expert in organizational strategy and corporate identity.
Our shared mission: to organize and structure La Clef Decamp using Google Calendar.
With just a single glance, we can instantly see the availability of each property and respond immediately when speaking with you on the phone.

Caroline then introduced us to Ilia Marneur, webmaster and founder of Service Digital.
A meeting between Christmas and New Year’s Day led to a collaboration that began in January 2019.
What followed were five months of intensive work to completely redesign this new website.


But you might ask… rebuilding a website technically is one thing… but what about the texts?
Once again thanks to the seminar, I met Laurence Castaner, a copywriter and expert in writing for entrepreneurs on the Internet.
She would bring all the written content of La Clef Decamp to life.

The Genesis of La Clef Decamp’s Internet Adventure

Stay tuned… the scoops are coming… a little patience… you’re going to love it!

Our online journey for the gîtes began in 2017.

I was aware of the need to communicate on the Internet to promote my gîtes… but I simply didn’t have enough time to make it happen.

One fine morning in 2017, Michel Ména knocked on my door.
As a web designer, he was just starting out in the design of showcase websites. He was kind enough to design my first two websites for me:

  • Les Écuries Val de Mai (Val de Maison)
  • La Duckerie (Valognes)

Michel did an excellent job with the design and construction of the two sites. I was so pleased with the results that I entrusted him with the creation of the other La Clef Decamp sites:

  • La Villa Dei (Villedieu Les Poêles)
  • Les Roches Grises (Granville)
  • La Clef Decamp, linking all the gîtes together

The only small downside… I was managing four independent websites for our four gîtes. There was no easy navigation between them.
It was difficult for my clients to move from one site to another and discover all the gîtes.
No calendar, no online booking… my business was growing fast, and it became urgent to implement automation and a full website renovation.
Do you see what I mean?


The gîtes of La Clef Decamp in the midst of a digital revolution!

That’s it—we decided to take on this new digital challenge.
The meeting with this amazing seminar group revealed the importance of improving, promoting, optimizing our work, and increasing our online visibility.
Thanks to these wonderful encounters, we’ve put together a fantastic team working on a website that’s second to none!

A 2-in-1 Solution…
Satisfied with the visual identity proposed by Michel Ména, we decided to keep the design, color palette, logo, and overall branding.
However… get ready to discover a flood of new features and updates!
