About this property
Beautiful stone gite in rural Brittany
La Vieille Ferme (The Old Farmhouse) at Gayon, once a working farm, is now a tastefully renovated traditional stone longere, offering holiday breaks in Morbihan, southern Brittany.
Le Grenier is a bright and spacious 2 bedroom traditional Breton stone cottage, located at the end of our longere, with a stylish, comfortable interior. The cottage overlooks a sunny and charming 18th century stone porcherie and original bread oven to the front, and has a private, enclosed garden to the rear, with its own barbecue and outdoor seating.
Situated at the heart of our 7 acres of wildflower meadows, fields and woodland, it enjoys views of beautiful countryside with abundant wildlife, yet is only two minutes drive from the nearest village. The cottage can sleep 4, and has an airy open-plan kitchen, dining room and lounge on the ground floor, with a wood-burning stove for those chillier evenings; upstairs a romantic double room with Juliet balcony, a generous twin-bedded room, and a family shower room.
There is plenty of parking on site.
A perfect couples retreat, but also ideal for small families (cot, high chair and stair gate available on request).
A welcome pack is provided, which includes: Milk, tea, coffee, sugar, cooking oil, and condiments.

Hosts pleasant, but not intrusive. Setting very pleasant. Property clean and modern, while also picturesque and quaint. Great spot for those wishing to visit and/or explore beautiful Morbihan.
Alan and Mandy were excellent hosts, even helping us to print our train tickets, and giving us some milk when I mistakenly bought fermented milk (ugh!).
The house was exactly as portrayed on the listing, very spacious, quiet, but close to amenities. Loved it!!!
L’accueil des propriétaires a été très chaleureux, la propriété est au calme, reposant. Tout y est bien indiqué. Les propriétaires sont très à l’écoute. La propriété est très propre. Le petit plus pour les parents avec enfants : l’aire de jeux sous les arbres très bien conçue.
Nous avons été très bien accueillis; de petites attentions nous attendaient.
Le gîte est très bien équipé et très propre.
Nous avons apprécié le calme et la vue sur la campagne.
Un grand merci à Mandy et Alan pour leur accueil chaleureux et leur grande gentillesse ! Nous avons passé une agréable semaine au calme dans un cadre champêtre, très reposant ! Nous avons eu la joie de profiter de la chaleur du poêle, qui était allumé à notre arrivée ! La location est très propre et tout y est. Les propriétaires sont discrets. Des vélos sont à disposition pour des balades sur les routes de campagne. Parfait, à recommander !
A choisir les yeux fermés lorsque l’on recherche du calme et du confort. Super jardin pr les petits avec balançoire et jeux. Propriétaires soigneux et attentionnés qui ont été très accueillants et discrets. Je recommande fortement !!
Beautiful rural location, gite was wonderfully presented to us by Alan & Mandy. Without out question a lovely large open down stairs living area with two good bedrooms and large bathroom. Well equipped with everything needed for two wheel stay. Property had private small enclosed garden set in extended gardens and woods that you could explore. Plenty of nice extra touches such as bikes you could use, beach equipment all made for a very enjoyable stay.

Einfach nur wundervoll
Alan und Mandy sind perfekte Gastgeber und haben es verstanden, uns in kürzester Zeit ein Gefühl von einem zweiten Zuhause zu vermitteln. Die Unterkunft ist super ausgestattet, der Begrüssungskorb einfach nur spitze und man kann bei den Beiden die absolute Ruhe und Natur genießen. Alles wichtige zum Einkaufen befindet sich in der Nähr und man kann prima Ausflüge in alle Teile der Bretagne machen. Wir würden diese Unterkunft nicht nur all unseren Freunden empfehlen, sondern jedem ans Herz legen, der super nette Gastgeber mag und individuell die Bretagne bereisen möchte, aber auch einen schönen und gemütlichen Rückzugsort haben möchte. Danke Alan und Mandy für die schöne Zeit bei euch.
Liebe Grüße Stefanie und Moritz

A lovely gite in a quiet location
We received very good instructions of how to get to the gite. The owners made us very welcomed and had left us various goodies to eat .The gite has all that is required and with lovely country views. In this part of France you can walk, cycle or explore the countryside by car there is plenty of wildlife to see plus lovely villages to explore.
Alan and Mandy obviously care about their properties and are very good hosts.
We only stayed 4 nights but would happily of stayed longer. John and Sue from Salisbury

Wunderschönes Steinhaus in einer ruhigen Umgebung
Wunderschön renoviertes Steinhaus mit moderner Ausstattung. Alt und neu ergeben ein sehr geschmackvolles Ganzes und es ist alles da, was das Urlauberherz begehrt. Alan und Mandy (die beiden Eigentümer) haben das Haus mit viel Liebe zum Detail eingerichtet, sodass man sich rundum wohl fühlte.
Die Eigentümer haben uns sehr herzlich empfangen und standen für Fragen während des Aufenthalts stets zur Verfügung.
Sehenswürdigkeiten der Bretagne waren in Tagesausflügen gut erreichbar.
Wir haben uns wegen der ruhigen Lage und der komfortablen und geschmackvollen Ausstattung sehr wohl gefühlt - Erholung pur.
