About this property
Quaint two bedroom house in rural France with sunny garden.
Situated in a rural position in the Pays de la Loire region, on the border of Normandy and Brittany, this quaint semi-detached cottage provides the perfect getaway.
It is accessible from the main ferry ports of St Malo, Caen and Cherbourg. The closest airport is Rennes (1.5 hours).
The cottage comprises of an open plan living room/ dining room with log burner, Enjoy the convenience of high speed broadband, smart tv and Firestick, Alexa in the living room, kitchen and main bedroom. There is also a DVD player with a selection of DVDs, plus a number of board games and decks of cards.
The kitchen is well equipped with microwave, dual fuel cooker, large American fridge/freezer with water dispenser, washing machine.
The main bedroom is nicely decorated with plenty of drawer space and large window. The double bed has a memory foam mattress with luxury topper, 13.5 tog duvet and cotton linen and pillow cases.
The smaller spare bedroom has a double sofa bed but is really only suitable for one adult.
The bathroom has a shower, basin with drawer space below in the vanity unit. There is a low level WC. Towels are provided.
The sunny spacious garden has a patio with table and chairs, a garden bench, plus gravel area with a firepit. There are sun loungers available.
The traditionally French village of Fougerolles du Plessis is 1 mile away. It has an award winning boulangerie, pharmacy (English speaking), tabac/bar, restaurant and a supermarket with a petrol station. There is also an excellent Salon de The, serving homemade cakes, lunches, teas and coffees in the neighbouring village of Landivy.
There many places to explore that are only a 1 hour car journey away, including magical Mont St Michel, the beautiful sandy beach at Carolles, the medieval town of Dinan and the gorgous spa town of Bagnoles de l'Orne.
Nearer to home, the towns of Domfront, Fougeres and Laval are well worth a visit. Also, St Hillaire du Harcoet with a French market each week.
If you find yourself missing your regular takeaway, the Route 66 Van is in Fougerolles du Plessis village centre every Friday evening selling homemade curries, burgers and Chinese dishes. It's very popular with boththe locals and visitors..
The cottage has a regular visitor in the shape of a gorgeous and very friendly tabby cat called George - he's in charge of Meet and Greets. He loves people and likes to come and say hello. He was found as an abandoned stray in the hedge at the cottage. He now lives in sublime comfort in the cottage opposite but likes to visit. We would not want him frightened or shooed away and for that reason the cottage is only suitable for people who are comfortable with a friendly cat coming to say hello.

About the host
Hosted by Jane Bibb

My name is Jane and it’s great being able to host my property.. For four happy years the cottage was my permanent home, during which time my husband and I fell in love with both the cottage and the surrounding area. It’s lovely now to be able to offer the property as a holiday home for others to enjoy.

What makes this property unique
During the summer months, with the lovely long, light evenings, the spacious sunny and private garden can be enjoyed. During the cooler months, the log burner in the lounge creates a warm and cozy environment.
