Urlaub mit der Großfamilie

Unser Urlaub ( 3 Generationen einschließend ) war trotz etwas wechselhaftem Wetter sehr gelungen und der Aufenthalt in Kerargon sehr angenehm. Das Haus ist hellhörig, so dass es vorteilhaft ist, wenn man ungefähr den gleichen Tagesrhythmus hat. Die Ausstattung der Küche ist prima und der Platz zum Essen und Wohnen für so viele Leute sind sehr gut . Auch die sanitären Einrichtungen sind in großer Zahl vorhanden, so dass nie Engpässe entstehen. Das Beste kommt zum Schluss : die Gastgeber Harriet und Christoph sind ganz reizende und herzliche Menschen, die uns bei Problemen sehr behilflich waren . Wir haben uns gefühlt wie im Urlaub bei Freunden . Danke Euch !

Perfekter Urlaub für große Gruppen

wir, eine Gruppe von 3 Familien, hatten einen perfekten Urlaub. Angefangen mit der überaus freundlichen Korrespondenz mit Harriet und dem herzlichen Willkommen auf Kerargon. Das Haus hat alles was man benötigt, die Küche ist vollständig ausgestattet und toll ist der private Garten. Alle Schlafzimmer sind so wie beschrieben. Man muss jedoch bedenken, dass auch die Wände in diesem Haus wie viele andere in der Bretagne Ohren haben... Harriet war sehr hilfsbereit, Infomaterial stellt sie in Überfluss zur Verfügung und hat viele Ausflugstipps parat. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und können dieses Haus nur wärmstens weiter empfehlen. Zum Meer/Strand sind es mit dem Auto ca. 8 Minuten, mit dm Rad ca. 25 Minuten (zurück 5 Min. länger, da es etwas mehr bergauf geht). Das Lokal Pen Ar Bed ist sehr zu empfehlen, reservierung für Gruppen ist ratsam. Sehr Gut ist auch das Vince Versa im benachbarten Treogat (Creperie) Die Bäckerei am Hauptplatz von Pouldreuzic ist hervorragend, der Super U in Landudec hat alles was man braucht (auch für Camper). Liebe Harriet, wir hatten einen tollen Urlaub bei dir. (Wir kamen als Fremde und gingen als Freunde)!

a fantastic holiday

Keragon was the ideal place for a family get together. Plenty of room, beautifully furnished property with everything for a wonderful stay. We lacked nothing and the owners are very friendly and helpful. It is the sort of place you will want to return to, which I think we may well do in a few years time, when we can get our family together again! many many thanks to Christof and Harriet for a brilliant time, all 15 of us agreed that it was a five star stay!

Un cadre chaleureux et un accueil qui l'est aussi;

Ravi de ce séjour à Kerargon où l'accueil était très agréable et où nous avons tous passés un agréable séjour breton pour les petits et les grands. La proximité de la mer et de différentes balades pédestres a agrémentée nos journées et la capacité du gîte nous a permis une grande réunion familiale. Je vous recommande vivement d'aller rencontrer Mme Mc Connell, vous ne serez pas déçu.

gut

Wir waren schon 2 Mal in idylische Kerargon, Wir finden: Kerargon ist gut erreichbar. Als Ferienort hat er einige sehr gute Eigenschaften: es ist idylisch, hat eine sehr ruhige Lage, ein sehr schönes und blumige Areal, gut zum Relaxen, angenehmes Atlantikklima. Bei Sonnenschein ist den ganzen Tag ein Sonnenbad möglich....... und außerhalb von Kerargon gibt es eine sehr schone Landschaft für die Seele und körperliche Aktivitäten - zB.Wandern oder Joggen..... das blaue Meer Atlantik ist leicht erreichbr, wo man entlang am Meer lange Spaziergäng machen bzw. wandern kann wo es auch historisch etwas zu entdecken gibt. Also: wir können Kerargon nur weiter empfehlen. Esther und Ali Farahat Aus Berlin

Star gazing at night and sightseeing by day!

This charming property had all the makings of a home away from home. The Manor House was furnished with everything one would need to cook for a small or very large group as we did. Bedrooms very tastefully appointed. Bathrooms all updated. The owner, Harriet, can tell you about all the wonderful sights to see that are lovely one day trips. Don't miss the beach or Ty Pin!

Wonderful place

A group of us came to Kerargon to celebrate a very special birthday. There could not have been a more perfect venue for such an event. Not only was the weather kind (very warm, allowing us to eat outside every day) but also the layout of the houses and courtyard was ideal for a large group to have drinks, congregate (even dance!). The Kerargon owner - Harriet - was so friendly and welcoming. I would heartily recommend this to anyone taking a large group to Brittany. A lovely area, with the sea only a few minutes away.

"This house was perfect for a group of families. There was plenty of space and having a bathroom for each family was a big bonus. Hot water in abundance ensured we could all have showers/baths at the end of a day at the beach. Harriet proved to be a fantastic owner, on site and able to help, including organising and going with us to a hospital visit, yet she was never intrusive. Definetly hoping to return in the future."

About the host

Hosted by Christoph Fritzsch/Harriet McConnell

My retirement dream: an enchanting spot with its own special history in a fascinating area to share with interesting people. An American ex-pat, I have lived in Europe (Germany and France) for over 30 years. No matter how long I am in Brittany, the diversity, beauty and rich culture of this area never cease to fascinate me and I still discover new gems. This area offers a range of attractions for every taste and passion.

Why they chose this property

Kerargon exudes the charm and stories of its long history: farming families establishing themselves in a tough-love area full of music, Breton traditions, and natural beauty. The house lies on a secluded farmstead surrounded by fields but only minutes from 2 neighboring towns (4km each), the endless beaches of Finistere (7km), and most of Brittany's special sights. Quimper with its quaint half-timbered houses is only 25 minutes away. There are endless places to see and discover for almost any interest you have, from sports to history to just plain relaxing. Let me share my enthusiasm for this magic corner of the world over a cup of coffee or tea!

What makes this property unique

History, calm, quiet, comfort: that is Kerargon. We are surrounded by fields/pastures so Kerargon is extremely safe for children and calm for adults. The stonehouse faces a spacious south-facing common courtyard, offering lots of room for group activities (ping pong, boules, dances, badminton) as well as having its own private garden with terrace and barbecue as private space. The granite house dates from 1823 and has seen centuries but the comfort inside is modern. There's a resident Brittany enthusiast on the property (me) to help with suggestions or questions, should you wish. Endless beaches are but 6km by bike or 7 km by car, and the many historic sites of Finistere are within a short car drive. Eg. Quimper: 30 min, Concarneau: 40 min, Locronan: 35 min, Pointe du Raz: 45 min, Pont Aven: 55 min, LaTorche 25 min.
