The ground floor holiday cottage provides spacious, light and airey self-catering holiday accommodation for couples seeking a tranquil base in this beautiful part of Brittany. The area is particularly suited to walkers, nature lovers, bird watchers, cyclists and history buffs; whilst the central location makes this gite a good choice as a touring base for guests wanting to explore the region.
