    There was nothing to dislike. We, (4 adults and 2 children) have had the best holiday. The good weather was a bonus, the children and adults loved the pool and were in it every day. The children enjoyed the chickens and especially the two ducks...

Adele, Andrew and Amelia.
The cottage is situated just outside Saint Martin des Pres, a small village in Cotes d'Armor. It's central location in Brittany makes this cottage an ideal touring base. With four bedrooms and two bathrooms, the cottage comfortably sleeps seven people. There is a double bedroom and bathroom with walk-in shower,on the ground floor. There is a wood burner in the lounge. An initial supply of wood is provided but there is a small charge for additional wood. Towels and Bed linen are included. The cottage has Satellite TV ( English and French channels)and free Wi-Fi internet access. There is a fenced garden in front of the cottage with a garden table and chairs. The garden gets the sun first thing in the morning and is a lovely area to eat your breakfast. There is also a large garden with a decked area, table, chairs and sun loungers and a private, heated swimming pool (open from May until the end of October). There are also swings and a boules court. This part of the garden gets the sun all day until it goes down. With views of the surrounding countryside it's an ideal place to eat alfresco, have fun in the pool and relax in the sun.
Owners Adele and Andrew bought the property 13 years ago, originally as a holiday home. After falling in love with the Breton way of life they took the plunge and moved to Brittany on a permanent basis, 9 years ago. They have renovated the main farmhouse in which they live and have converted a former cow shed into beautiful a holiday cottage. With over 30 years experience as a general builder Andrew has continued to work in Brittany. He is a keen golfer and fisherman. Adele was previously a Community Nurse but now spends her days looking after the gite, gardening and looking after their animals, which include 3 dogs, a cat a horse and 2 sheep.
Brittany really does have it all. If you want to do more than simply relax in the garden, there are many activities to choose from. Whether you’re looking for beautiful walks, watersports, fishing, golf or sandy beaches, you’ll find all of these close to our cottage. Nearby you can visit the beautiful Lake of Guerlédan, which is surrounded by the forest of Quénécan. The lake is approximately a 15 minutes drive away and along with its manmade beaches it offers a wide range of activities including water sports, boat hire, fishing, horse riding and a climbing centre. The village of Saint Martin des Pres has a small park with a lake which is stocked with trout. Day permits can be purchased in the boulangerie and you are allowed to take home five trout! If you enjoy a round of golf, then look no further! Brittany has many superb golf courses. The owner of the cottage is a keen golfer and will be able to offer you advice on courses that would suit you best. For more general information on golf courses in Brittany, visit the Golf Bretagne website. The coast is a 40 minutes drive away.You can enjoy beautiful sandy beaches at Binic and Saint Brieuc.
