THE LOCATION: A quiet, peaceful hamlet with beautiful walks along the river and in the woods nearby. Less than 2 minutes away is the quiet yet friendly village of Lanrivain with small grocery store, post office, cafe and restaurant. St Nicolas du Pelem is 10mins away with all its amenities including boulangerie, supermarket, banks, newsagent, pharmacy, restaurants, municipal pool and sports facilities and the traditional Breton towns of Rostrenen and Bourbriac are easily reached within 15mins.

LOCAL ATTRACTIONS: Less than 30mins drive is stunning Lake Guerledan with pedalos, kayaking, boat trips, fishing, horse riding, small beach, cafes and restaurants. North is Guingamp with its restaurants, bars, traditional buildings with period facades, whisky distillery and lively festivals in July and August. West is Huelgoat with its mythical forests, lake, restaurants and bars. With numerous quiet lanes in the area and the Nantes-Brest canal nearby, the area is perfect for cycling and walking. Plenty of beautiful beaches and coves within reasonable driving distance.

Being centrally located means nowhere is too far! Most parts of Brittany and their key attractions are easily accessible. It's easy to explore the coastal areas and stunning beaches of Northern, Western and Southern Brittany as well as the larger attractions the area has to offer such as aquariums, castles, historic towns (eg. Dinan, Josselin, Vannes), water and adventure parks - each one a perfect day trip. There are visitor leaflets as well as a comprehensive information pack to get the most out of your stay

A taste of Rural France
The accommodation was exactly as stated - very rural which is what we were after. Ideal for two families with the farmhouse and gite being seperate. It was well equipped with all the amenities you would expect along with the addition of a games room and pool which were a hit with the children.

A wonderful stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the farmhouse and gite. The house is perfect for families. Our children aged between 8-14 made use of the pool and the games room while the adults were able to relax in a peaceful space with all we needed at our disposal. The local supermarket (15 mins drive) kept us stocked up and we spent our days enjoying the lake, canals and beautiful beaches that are all within an hour’s drive. Rachel was always on hand to respond to any enquiries and also provided a comprehensive guide to help us make the most of the local area. We would definitely recommend this accommodation for a trip to France. Many thanks!

Excellent for extended families
A lovely rural location with a large garden. So quiet and no light pollution at all ! The grandchildren loved the pool and spent most of the week in it. The house and cottage are both well equipped with plenty of showers and baths. There are good markets and some lovely lakes in the area but all do require a drive to get to them. Sadly the boulangerie in the village is closed so we had frequent trips in the car to the ( excellent )supermarket in St. Nicolas .

Great for large groups
We visited as 4 families with children staying in the farmhouse and gite. This was a great place for the kids to play outside and they loved the pool. It’s a typically quiet rural French setting which suited us perfectly and was great for socialising at the property. Owners were really useful in providing info and always quick with any correspondence. Overall a great place to stay.

We really enjoyed a week in the Farmhouse. Located in the peaceful French countryside, very relaxing
We had a lovely stay in the Farmhouse. 3 families in all, 2 in the Farmhouse, 1 in the gite. Both houses were well equipped and comfortable. The games room was a big hit with the kids and we all enjoyed the outside spaces and pool. The pool is deep enough for adults to enjoy so pack the armbands for the little ones if they need them! There's lots to do in the area and a trip to the nearby Lac du Guerlèdan is a really enjoyable day out. I would highly recommend a stay here.

About the host

Hosted by Rachel Price

Host profile image
Passionate about France having studies French many moons ago!

Finally decided to buy our own little hide-away in rural Brittany as it was easy to get to with two school aged boys ((hoping their French will improve!) and a great central location to share with others.

Adore French food and wine. Love experiencing the traditional laid back way of everyday French life with all it has to offer including visiting the local markets and sitting in cafes watching the world go by.

Brittany has always appealed -- maybe something to do with our Celtic roots?! - there's so much to do - relaxing on beaches, walking the dramatic coastline, cycling along the canals, fishing, horse riding, exploring the historic towns and discovering wonderful bars and restaurants.
