We specialise in Properties in Northern Brittany

The Gite is set in 36 acre farm lying in the heart of rural Brittany, the north west corner of France.

Situated on the border of the Côtes D’Amour & the Morbihan regions, 8 miles south of the small market town of Rostrenen, "The Cross-roads of Brittany", The Property provides an ideal base for a tranquil holiday, accessible from the main ferry ports in a few hours.

The farm was given it’s name about a century ago because it overlooks a typical Breton Valley scattered with small hamlets, unspoilt by time & modernisation its a traditional Breton cottage, of stone and slate. The Gîte has been completely refurbished to provide a cosy cottage, suitable for holidaying. The accommodation is for 4 people & a baby.

Downstairs is a comfortable lounge with the focal point being the wood burning stove. On autumn, winter & spring holidays, the logs you load into the stove and the chestnuts that you collect to roast, together with the original wooden beams add to the atmosphere.

The kitchen is fully equipped with a full sized cooker, fridge, coffee maker, microwave & toaster. All pots, pans, matching china & wine glasses are provided, so to are basic groceries such as salt, pepper, tin foil & kitchen roll. The dining table overlooks the courtyard, an area that is protected from the northeast by the L shaped farm buildings and from the west by the trees, leaving only the south & its sunshine. A natural suntrap to sunbathe, breakfast, snack, wine or dine.

Back indoors and up the pine open staircase, large windows give an airy feeling and the “beautiful view” in the name. The roof space hosts a mezzanine landing on which there are two single beds. There is a double bedroom too. All beds are fully made up with English pillows & duvets, ready to sleep in. The shower room is up here as well with WC and washbasin

The area around the pool is paved, grassed, and there is a wooden terrace area. There are sun loungers, chairs & tables for relaxing and soaking up the sun. The playpen is kept in this area too so that the parents of toddlers can relax. The whole pool area is enclosed with wooden fencing.

Other activities on the site include being able to help out on the farm with feeding the animals, there are pony & trap rides and other horses can give the whole family an outing to the next village to discover some of the history and roman remains of the region.
