The cottage looked much brighter in the photos. In reality, it was very dark.
Het huisje zag er op de foto’s vele malen lichter uit. In werkelijkheid was het huisje heel erg donker.
The peace and quiet and the beautiful garden were great. There wasn't a nice walk within walking distance, but it was accessible by car.
De rust en mooie tuin waren prima. Op loopafstand was er geen, mooie, wandeling. Wel met de auto te bereiken.

The cottage is clean and fully equipped.
Huisje is schoon en van alle gemakken voorzien.
A lovely cottage with a beautiful garden surrounded by meadows. You feel completely alone in the tranquility. It was wonderful to sit outside under the awning, either in the shade or in the sun. The cottage is fully equipped, and there’s a wood stove for cold evenings. We also enjoyed the surrounding area. We took some nice trips to places like Mont Saint-Michel, Dinan (highly recommended for its beautiful medieval town), and Saint-Malo, which we also really enjoyed, and we visited a very beautiful castle in Fougères. We also had very pleasant contact with the owner, who was extremely helpful. All in all, a wonderful vacation in a very beautiful cottage.
Mooi huisje met een prachtige tuin omgeven door weilanden. Je waant je helemaal alleen in de rust. Buiten zitten kon heerlijk onder de overkapping in de schaduw of ook in de zon. Het huisje is van alle gemakken voorzien en voor de koude avonden is er een houtkachel. Ook van de omgeving hebben wij genoten. Leuke uitstapjes naar bijvoorbeeld de Mont Saint Michel, Dinan (aanrader voor een mooi middeleeuwse stad), St. Malo, ook erg genoten en nog een erg mooi kasteel in Fougeres bezocht. Ook met de eigenaar heel fijn contact gehad, zeer behulpzaam. Al met al een heerlijke vakantie in een erg mooi huisje.

Communication with the cottage owner couldn't be better either!
De communicatie met de eigenaar van het huisje kan ook niet beter!
The enjoyment begins the moment you arrive: the driveway leading up to the cottage is simply beautiful and immediately gives you the feeling that you’ve arrived at a special place.
The cottage is in a wonderfully peaceful location and has a beautiful covered area where you can sit outside and fully enjoy the tranquility and the sounds around you. The cottage is simply furnished, but in a cozy way. Everything you need is there, even a well-functioning air conditioner!
There’s a lovely freestanding bathtub with a view of the garden.
We had an absolutely wonderful time here and would love to come back! And not to be overlooked: nearby you’ll find the fantastic restaurant Le Moulin de Jean, where you can enjoy a delicious meal and a pleasant, relaxing atmosphere.Al bij aankomst begint het genieten: de oprit naar het huisje toe is al prachtig en geeft je meteen het gevoel dat je op een bijzondere plek terecht bent gekomen.
Het huisje ligt heerlijk rustig en heeft een prachtige overkapping waar je fijn buiten kunt zitten en volop kunt genieten van de rust en de geluiden om je heen. Het huisje is eenvoudig ingericht, maar wel op een sfeervolle manier. Alles wat je nodig hebt is aanwezig, zelfs een goedwerkende airco!
Er is een heerlijk bad op pootjes met uitzicht op de tuin.
We hebben hier ontzettend genoten en komen graag nog eens terug! Niet onbelangrijk: in de buurt vind je het geweldige restaurant Le Moulin de Jean, waar je heerlijk kunt eten en kunt genieten van een fijne, rustgevende sfeer.This text is automatically translated.
