Family holiday for all ages
The family took up the full property and we were 12 total from 8 years to OAP's We fitted in with rooms, cooking facilities and outdoor activities. We took a little while getting used to the ovens but we had a Birthday with trimmings which was a success. Donna and George were there to help when needed but we were able to enjoy our every minute, particularly at and in the pool. We had access to lots of games within the vast area of the property. We have experienced family get togethers in England but this was special.

Lovely stay in rural Brittany
We had all 3 properties for a week, and they are just charming. The owners (who live on site) are there when you need them, and also keep themselves to themselves. The facilites they have are great - especially for children. Many thanks to Donna and George for our stay in the sunshine.

Birthday Bash
I cannot recommend this property highly enough there were 13 members of our family spread over the three gites with enough space for everyone. The gardens were beautiful. Donna and George were perfect hosts always ready with help and advice about the area and things to do. Many thanks for an excellent week. The CB family.
