Holiday houses in Buleon, Nr. Josselin, Brittany, Morbihan, France
'Le Rez' - Spacious Well-Appointed Farmhouse
Large Private, Garden in Quiet Hamlet
Sleeps 9 (5 Bedrooms)
|
|
Originally a farmhouse that was built in 1869, and renovated to a high standard, it is perfectly suited to large family holidays. It has a spacious ground floor and the 3 bath/shower-rooms are always appreciated. It is available for self-catering rental throughout the year with a wood-burning stove with log supply available to use on those colder occasions to supplement the normal heating. As mentioned, the garden is large and has plenty of lawns and areas for children to play safely, the small wooded area being a favourite. Le Rez is a still a farming hamlet, the neighbour having a dairy herd, but much closer are the sheep, which are always popular. It is only a short walk to the village of Buléon with it's shop, restaurant and bars. The market town of Josselin with its Chateau, interesting town centre, boat and kayak trips, is the closest supermarket stop just a 10 minute drive away. The coast is 35 minutes drive.

Guest comments
What a lovely large house with plenty of bathrooms and hot water. We visited Vannes twice, Josselin and Auray. The shops are great in Vannes. Rochefort is beautiful. Would certainly visit again and recommend to friends. Thank you for a lovely hol. The Hawker Family.
Thanks for a comfortable stay. Very well-appointed gite. The constant hot water was very much appreciated as was the excellent plumbing- the best we've had in a French gite. Lovely area to cycle round. We really enjoyed just spending time at the gite. The Randall and Taylor Families
Fantastic accommodation! Very well equipped and comfortable. Quiet, relaxing and beautiful surroundings. Picturesque villages, warm and friendly people. Enjoyed the rural setting- we have no complaints or suggestions for improvements! The Engley Family
