The Experience

The two are set in three acres of grounds with mature trees, a pond, orchard and woods. The farmhouse has its own decking, seating and large lawn at the front, and the cottage a table and chairs on the front driveway plus a private back garden – there’s no formal division between them but neither are overlooked. Shared use of the tennis court, a ping pong table on wheels and deck chairs for sunbathing mean there’s plenty to do on sunny days.

Interiors are warmed by an open fire or wood-burner, sofas are comfy and there are board games and books – this is no sterile holiday cottage, the owners use it too so it feels homely with original artwork and two well-equipped kitchens. Basics will be in the cupboard plus treats waiting for you. Bedrooms all have gorgeous green views.

The feel is deeply rural (watch deer wandering into the garden, swooping owls at night) but you’re only a ten-minute drive to Ploumilleau for a great crêperie and 20 minutes to Locquirec for more good restaurants and a summer pop up bar on the estuary.

We think you'll love

  • So much space outdoors for children to play safely, make dens in the woods, search for interesting things in the pond
  • The homely feel of the house and sitting by the open fire or wood-burners
  • Being able to go for walks and cycles straight from the end of the garden

Reviews

The perfect home for a group or a couple of families. Inside is spacious and comfortable (get cosy by the fire on cold days!) and the huge gardens allows for plenty of roaming around. Bring your tennis rackets to make full use of the court, or relax in the deckchairs at sunset - you might spot a deer! Go hiking or cycling (directly from the house) or explore the stunning coast (only 15 minutes away).

We had just had the most fabulous week visiting with a group of friends. This traditional Breton farmhouse is less than an hour from Roscoff, such that we arrived in time for breakfast from the overnight ferry. Set in a tranquil rural location with extensive gardens, the house was very spacious, and tastefully refurbished. A great spot for walking and cycling with lots of offroad tracks and a wide choice of local beaches. We loved the charming port of Locquirec nearby too for fresh seafood and the market in Plestin for local produce.

We had a wonderful family holiday over Christmas. Arriving very late on a very cold and icy night to a cosy warm house was blissful. We fell into our comfortable beds and slept like logs as its so peaceful. The house is very well equipped, we had everything we needed to make the traditional Christmas dinner! We loved exploring the local towns and villages and lovely long walks on nearby beaches. We made use of the bikes and the tennis racquets. The local village has everything you need in the way of amenities . A great family holiday destination.


Location

The neighbourhood

The GR 34 can be joined at the end of the back drive for a 20-minute walk through the woods to an old chapel, or a 12-mile hike to Locquirec (stop off at the excellent Brasserie de la Plage when you’re there). There are on and off-road cycling trails from the houses. Plouaret has a good butcher, two bakeries and a few simple restaurants. Nearby beaches include Saint-Efflam (15-min drive) where you can rent paddle boards and canoes.

Local points of interest from Jo Powell

  • Foodie heaven. Sample fabulous produce from seafood to cheese and crêpes at local markets; our favourite is Saturday morning at Morlaix. Or, head to Locquirec, Lannion or Locquemeau for the full range of eateries from Michelin star to waterfront pop ups.
  • Terre (Land) - Cycle or walk, on or off road from the back door. The GR34 passes the end of the drive. Cycle to the village to buy the bread, have a coffee in the square then cycle home via a new route and discover hidden chapels and manoirs on the way.
  • Mer (Sea) - The beaches are plentiful and uncrowded. The stunning Pink Granite Coast is a must. Activities include : sailing, canoeing, surfing, kite surfing, paddle boarding, sand karting, snorkelling or just good old rock pooling and sand castles!
  • Brittany is filled with beautiful chateaux and gardens to explore. Chateau de Rosanbo is on the doorstep, but Château de la Roche-Jagu, Jardin du Kestellic, Jardin Exotique in Roscoff and the magical gardens at Kerdalo are all worth a visit.
  • Islands - The Ile de Brehat and Ile de Batz are both short ferry rides to perfect one day destinations, beautiful sandy beaches and subtropical gardens on largely pedestrianised islands. Closer to home visit Ile Callot at Carantec at low tide on foot.
  • Other distractions - If after tennis, ping pong, pool, beaches and bikes you still have energy to burn and a desire to explore, try Oceanopolis Aquarium and sea life centre in Brest, or the Gaulois Village, High Ropes and Planetarium at Pleumeur Bodou.
