Our French Village house
Friends and family are often asking us about our French cottage, so to make life easier for everyone here’s the details:

Outside our french village house
This traditional 17th Century Cottage with beamed ceilings is set on a sunny lane in a tranquil village.
The local tea-rooms and historic village church are about 100 yards away and with the village bakery just around the corner, you can wake to the smell of freshly baked bread.
Only 40 minutes from the coast, and close to all amenities, from local lakes to historic abbeys, beautiful walks to cycle routes.
With such a wide array of attractions, you can chose the holiday you want, from action packed and exciting to quiet and tranquil to recharge your batteries and … relax in Brittany
NOTE: The cottage is equipped with everything you could want for your holiday from TV (take your own DVDs/DVD Player) to microwave, modern showers and a roaring wood burner, but as reflected by the rental rates this is not a luxury villa – it is a traditional French gite offering a homely and central base ideally placed for exploring the beautiful countryside and sea shores.

Nice – but it’s NOT luxury
The cottage is equipped with everything you could want for your holiday from TV (bring your own DVDs/DVD player) to microwave, modern showers and a roaring wood burner, but as reflected by the rental rates* this is not a luxury villa – it is a traditional French gite offering a homely and central base ideally placed for exploring the beautiful countryside and sea shores. There is no garden, though the lane is sunny and we often take a table and chairs outside to eat al-fresco. There are parks and woodland within a few minutes walk.
