About this property
Beautiful cottage for a rural, tranquil retreat
Discover the allure of rural France with a stay in this charming 1 bedroom gite. Nestled in the heart of the serene countryside, our gite offers a perfect escape for those seeking relaxation, adventure or cultural exploration. Attached to the host residence, you'll experience uninterrupted privacy while having your welcoming host just a stone's throw away. Our generous driveway provides stress-free parking for guests with motorhomes or caravans, while our covered garage spaces cater for those arriving on bikes or motorbikes. Please request access to this facility upon booking.
You are welcome to bring 1 dog to our cottage at additional cost of 30 euro per stay. Please add to your booking.
The Gite: A Home Away From Home
Enter through stone steps into a spacious, airy kitchen/diner fully equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Your welcome pack awaits and includes tea, coffee, milk, baguette, bottle of wine and cheese. We've also included practical essentials like initial supplies of toilet rolls and bin bags. Our cottage is connected to mains water and we provide bottled gas.
The cozy sitting room has comfortable seating with a traditional log burner for cooler nights, a perfect space for you to unwind after a busy day of exploration
The modern bathroom offers a rejuvenating power shower and ample space for your toiletries. Towels are provided for your stay.
Climb the spiral staircase to your beamed bedroom, where blackout blinds ensure a restful night's sleep in a comfortable queen size bed which is all set for your arrival.
Electricity is included in summer bookings. We offer end of stay cleaning and 2 adult bikes (please bring your own safety helmets) - details available upon request at the time of booking. A standard security deposit will be required which is refundable upon departure minus any cleaning and/or electricity.
Outdoor Bliss and Spectacular Views
Relax in the garden where you can delight in lazy days and enjoy a BBQ on the decking while surrounded by serene countryside views. The front terrace is an ideal spot for savouring your morning coffees and evening aperitifs. On clear nights it provides the perfect space for spectacular star gazing.
Explore and Enjoy
A 10-minute drive takes you to Gorron for restaurants, bars, and a market. The gite serves as an ideal base for day trips and local walking and cycling routes.
