Quaint property, friendly helpful host.

Very quaint property. Ideally situated for us as we were attending a family wedding and the venue was only 20 mins. away. Host very friendly and welcomed us when we arrived and ensured we had the Wi Fi code which was very helpful. We had a comfortable stay, although the cooking facilities were rather basic and we bought a set of cutlery as what was there was a bit random. Apart from that, we had a great time and LOVED the kitchen table/bar. An idea we might use at home!

Calm and tranquil rural retreat

The property was exactly as described, and the photos give a very accurate picture of this small rural gite. We loved staying in this tiny hamlet, and it's well placed for exploring the forests and walks in the central region. The nearby town of Huelgoat is charming and the Tourist Information office there is helpful and informative. There are supermarkets there, and several bars in the square and by the lake. There's also a convenience store in Poullaouen behind the school for emergencies. The host Cyrille is friendly and cheerful, and other neighbours are also charming - including a goat from the nearby farm who came to welcome us on Day 1! If you enjoy a quiet country space, this is a wonderful place.

überraschend und schön

Das Häuschen ist speziell, aber sehr ordentlich. Für zwei Paare sehr gut.Die Küche ist etwas einfach eingerichtet und der Esstisch ist eher ein langer Tresen aus einem sehr schönen Holzbrett und gut lackiert. Waschmaschine funktioniert, heißes Wasser ist immer vorhanden. Die Badewanne ist super. Der Pelletofen (es war für Juni noch kalt) funktioniert nach Einweisung ohne Probleme.

Le gîte est très bien situé pour des visites variées : forêt, campagne, mer, villes. Le propriétaire est très accueillant sans être intrusif. En résumé, un séjour apprécié tant par les humains que par les animaux.

Urlaub auf dem Renovationsobjekt

Meine Partnerin war bei der Ankunft geschockt ! Die Bilder im Internet geben nicht die tatsächliche Lage und Situation des Ferienhauses wieder. Nachfragen zur tatsächlichen Lage / Adresse wurden im Vorfeld ausweichend beantwortet. Es ist Teil der kleinen Siedlung Kergoulas bei Poullaouen. Das Ferienhaus ist nicht alleinstehend, sondern Teil mehrerer miteinander verbundener Gebäude, die alle stark renovierungsbedürftig sind. Der Blick aus dem Ferienhaus fällt auf zwei kaputte Scheunen und weiter heruntergekommene Gebäude und allerlei Baumaterialien und Unrat und lässt so wenig Urlaubsstimmung aufkommen. Der " Garten " war voller Unkraut und bot leider wenig Sichtschutz auf die angrenzenden Gebäude ... Die Innenausstattung ist sehr schlicht und handwerklich sehr einfach und besteht aus alten abgenutzten Gebrauchsgegenständen / Flohmarkt Artikeln, deren Sauberkeit und Funktionalität, teilweise zu wünschen übrig lässt. Die Bettwäsche wurde bei der Abreise abgezogen und so offenbarte sich eine stark verschmutzte Matratze mit einen Ekelcharakter ... So etwas geht nicht ! Die gehört entsorgt und neu ! Dem gegenüber steht das freundliche Wesen des Vermieters Cyrille, der sich sehr bemüht zeigt, aber dessen Mittel leider wohl beschränkt sind, die Gesamtumstände zu verbessern. Als Basis bei einem kleinem Urlaubs Buget für Tagesausflüge in die westliche Bretagne, ist es im Rahmen geeignet. Wir haben das Beste aus dem Aufenthalt dort gemacht, werden uns aber zukünftig für die Bretagne anders orientieren.
