Quiet & Peacefully located, 4/5 Bed Gite in two acres of owners ground with lake

If you like beautiful scenery, peace, quiet, and relaxing comfort, within easy reach of numerous places of interest, you will find your holiday haven right here. While away an hour or two with a fishing rod by our private lake. Relax and enjoy an hour or two within the grounds, reading, painting or whatever is your thing. The Gite stays cool in the summer, snug and warm in the winter, and this area of Brittany is renowned for excellent weather. This detached, and self-contained, holiday cottage, is very well equipped (especially the kitchen), to help ensure a relaxing stay and has it's own private entrance and parking area. The lounge/diner is well furnished, and has French Doors, which open to a garden patio including an inflatable 2 person jacuzzi. There is a three piece suite, making for total comfort whilst watching TV or DVD, or whilst reading from the extensive range of books upon the shelves. There is a dining table and chairs. The kitchen has fridge/freezer, oven, hob, microwave, toaster, kettle, slow-cooker, washing machine, and abundant kitchen utensils and table-ware. we believe you won't want for anything in our kitchen. There are two double bedrooms, one on the ground floor, which has period furniture in the French style, with a comfortable double bed, and a window view over the lake. The ground floor shower-room and toilet, has a heated towel rail, and there is always an abundant supply of hot water. Upstairs, there is a second double bedroom, with a King size double and a single bed in the same room. This upper room does have cross beams, so if you are 6 feet 2 inches (188 cm) and over, then it is "Duck or Grouse". We aim to make your stay as pleasant an experience as possible. You will find the cottage clean and welcoming, and there will be milk, butter, orange juice and white wine in the fridge, with a loaf of bread, eggs, biscuits, jam, coffee, tea and a bottle of red wine on the side, all with our compliments. Should you wish us to "shop in" for you, simply email us a list, and it will be done, and you can settle the cost when you arrive. All bedding and towels are provided, and changed mid-term if you are staying for a fortnight. Beach towels or towels for sunbathing are available upon request. On the bookshelves in the cottage, there is information about local attractions, together with books and DVD's. The satellite TV is programmed for English channels reception, and has an inbuilt DVD player. You will be on holiday, but we know you might want to 'stay in touch' so WiFi Broadband is available. There is a barbecue for you to use on the adjacent patio, and a relaxing two person Inflatable Hot Tub. Finally we must advise that we have a NO PETS policy.

Tranquillity

The cottage is extremely well equipped, cosy and comfortable with a wonderful welcome pack on arrival. The grounds are superbly maintained with plenty of different seating areas in order to make the most of the weather. The cottage is at the end of lane, so no passing vehicles, if you need peace and quiet, this is a haven of tranquility. Hope to return later in the year

Vacances en Angleterre !

Excellentes. Dans un cadre parfait en pleine nature, un logement très bien équipé avec plus que le necessaire! Seul remarque négative, il semblerait que cette location ne soit pas prévue pour des français. Les propriétaires ne parlent pas français ou à peine, télé anglaise,quedes jeux et livres anglais. Dommage les soirées sont longues ! !

Le calme au milieu de la Bretagne

Le calme, l'espace et le dépaysement était au rendez-vous Mme et Mr Wollard sont des hôtes attentionnés tout en restant discrets. La maison "cottage" est très cosy, on s'y s'en rapidement chez soi. Nous n'avons manqué de rien. La situation géographique du gîte permet de visiter facilement la région. Le jardin immense et accessible et l'étang permettent à ceux que le souhaite se reposer et ne rien faire en toute quiétude. Vraiment un endroit à connaître. Merci beaucoup Frances et Ian

Très bonne location et bien située

Compliqué de dire le contraire lorsque vos critères sont présents. J'essaierai donc d'être objectif ... La location de Ian et Frances est vraiment agréable et bien équipée. Tous deux sont aux petits soins pour vous. La communication est de préférence en Anglais 😀 ......Mais pas de soucis, ils s'adaptent !! J'y ai séjourné 3 semaines en déplacement et le dépaysement est total. Ambiance comme à la maison , cadre, photo, mobilier et......... presque comme à la maison....le SPA !! Le seul fait de sortir du travail, j'avais l'impression d'être en vacances. Étang pour pêcher sur place (Dommage, peut-être la prochaine fois...) canal de Nantes à Brest à proximité (2,5km )pour running ou vtc (pour moi le vtt c'est sans revêtement avec des trous,des bosses, des gamelles... mais super sorties) Le lac de Guerledan est à 15mn,Vannes où Saint Brieuc à 30 mn... pas d'hésitation. Attention, chaînes Tv en Anglais, mais nous ne sommes pas là pour ça, lecteur dvd, wii sur place !! Je recommande vivement cette location et j'y retournerai pour des vrais vacances dès que possible.

Magnifique endroit

Nous avons été très gâtés lors de ce séjour. Nous avons été très bien accueillis par Ian et Frances qui ont été adorables avec nous pendant tout le séjour. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié leur maison qui est confortable et bien équipée. Le jardin est splendide, un vrai Havre de paix ! La location de la maison est parfaite pour visiter les côtes et le cœur de la Bretagne. C'était super aussi d'avoir le jacuzzi pour se détendre après les balades. Merci à Ian et Frances pour votre gentillesse !

El alojamiento es magnífico, tanto por su situación, como por la casa y sus dueños. Limpia, muy bien equipada, cómoda y con una cesta maravillosa de bienvenida con productos básicos y típicos de la zona. El jardín, con su lago, fantástico y también sus tumbona y mesas. Muy recomendable para familias.

Sehr schönes Anwesen mit ebenso netten Vermietern vor Ort

Das Grundstück in Hanglage hat einen großen Garten mit einem schönen Teich und verschiedenen Bäumen. Die Vermieter wohnen in einem separaten Gebäude getrennt durch eine Hecke/Sichtschutz. Durch die Lage in der Mitte der Bretagne ist es ein idealer Startpunkt für Ausflüge mit dem Auto in alle Richtungen. Direkt vor Ort kann man schön wandern, Wald und Kanal bieten schattige Wanderwege, u.a. auch einen Ableger des Jakobswegs. Das Haus selbst ist gemütlich und gut ausgestattet und entspricht den Fotos und der Beschreibung, es gibt allerdings nur eine Toilette im Bad. Es gibt eine Waschmaschine (und Wäschespinne im Freien), aber keine Spülmaschine. Für Kochfreunde gibt es Gasherd und Elektrobackofen. Kühlschrank und separates Gefrierabteil sind groß für eine Ferienwohnung. Durch den Teich auf dem Grundstück und die teilweise antike Möblierung eignet sich die Unterkunft weniger für kleine Kinder ist aber gut geeignet für Familien mit Schulkindern. Die Vermieter sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Besonders haben wir uns über den Begrüßungskorb mit Lebensmitteln gefreut, was den Start erleichtert, zumal typisch für Frankreich Montags die örtlichen Geschäfte geschlossen haben - dafür am Sonntag geöffnet sind. Großmärkte sind nur mit dem Auto zu erreichen.

Lieu très agréable et bucolique. Le petit panier d'accueil est très plaisant ,les hôtes très gentils

La maison est pleine de charme, avec un équipement complet pour le séjour. Lieu calme et paisible, situé au carrefour de la Bretagne. Les propriétaires sont sympathiques et disponibles. Le seul petit bémol est que la télévision, livres et DVD sont uniquement en anglais.

relaxing and private accommodation

Very well presented and equipped property. The welcome pack was really comprehensive and appreciated. Ian and Frances were very friendly and helpful but not intrusive. Our own off-road parking was very useful for loading/unloading. Good central location for easy travel to many sites and towns and beaches. Enjoyed watching the wildlife including squirrels and variety of birds. Plenty of space in the gite with second bedroom on first floor. Ideal for couples or families but note that small children would need supervision in the grounds because of the lake.(clearly detailed in the property description). Easy walk to village centre for morning bread and croissants!!.Thankyou Ian and Frances for a terrific stay
