Details about our Self Catering Gite Accommodation in Brittany

Our gites offer a peaceful and private setting in a rural area of Brittany ideal for both exploring and relaxing.  It is an ideal family holiday location as it is just one kilometre from a small bustling town called Gouarec, about 8 kilometres from Lac de Guerledan, 35 minutes from the north Brittany coast at St Brieuc and an hour or so from the south Brittany coast. There are 2 gites both newly decorated and furnished: Les Rossignols Gite which sleeps up to 6 plus a baby and Les Chouettes Gite which sleeps up to 8.

Other Information

English owners separate accommodation is within the grounds so we are on
hand to help you get the most out of your holiday

For those who want a complete rest from cooking, we also offer packed lunches and evening meals (including barbecues!) by arrangement for our guests. Vegetarians and other diets can also be catered for on request.

Parking:  there is ample parking within the grounds

Baby Equipment:  No need to bring yours and take up valuable space in your
car because we can provide cot, high chair and baby bath for you; but as
formula milk is expensive here and you may not be able to get your usual
brand, it's a good idea to bring your own supply.
