Brittany Spa Cottages

Jasmine cottage was the most well equipped and comfortable Gîte you could wish for. With a welcome basket too of regional treats, thank you Aurélie. We relished the peace and quiet of deepest rural Brittany and the lush green countryside where the main sounds were only of birdsong. Using the bird up app we had fun identifying so many different birds. Cycling was a pleasure on the quiet roads and on the towpath along the Nantes to Brest canal. You can ride for miles. The old buildings and flowers in the courtyard were great subject matter for John's painting. A memorable stay.

Well equipped and helpful and friendly owners. We wanted for nothing on this stay. I have used many self catering cottages over the years and Jasmine Cottage was simply superb. Even down to sharp knives so the ones I took with me stayed in my bag. Aurelie lives on the premises and she keeps a low profile, but is always available if you want any advice, help with restaurant recommendations and bookings, supper cooked for you etc. We went to experience the cycling in the immediate area and further afield and weren’t disappointed. We had such a lovely stay and would definitely visit again.

We stayed for one week in Orchid Barn cottage in central/rural Brittany. Aurélie was an outstanding host who was readily available and provided great advice. She even offered warmer jackets when the weather turned colder than we had expected. The cottage was nicely decorated ,comfortable ,and very clean. Kitchen was well equipped to prepare meals with ingredients from local markets in Pontivy and Vannes. The peace and quiet here was great to recharge after touring. local villages central and coastal. We would recommend this cottage to our friends and hope to return ourselves some day.

Set in a peaceful bucolic location, it’s restful and restorative to stay in the Orchid Barn. The cottage is very well equipped, the welcome goodies were delightful, the shower nice and big, and the bed incredibly comfortable. There are so many places to visit within a reasonable drive that we could have done with staying longer. Last, but definitely not least, is the warm welcome we received from Aurélie, who was solicitous without being too much, and for whom nothing was too much trouble. I’m certain this won’t be our only visit!
