The ground floor comprises an open plan living area with English and French satellite television, dining area and a well equipped kitchen area with a gas cooker, microwave and fridge/freezer, electric kettle and a coffee maker. An air source heat pump provides for the heating and air conditioning. There is a ground floor Shower room with walk in thermostatically controlled shower, vanity unit with wash basin and toilet. Upstairs there are two comfortable, carpeted bedrooms, one with a double bed and the other with two single beds. The beds will be made up ready for your arrival and we provide a bath towel for each guest. The towels are for interior use only so you will need to provide your own pool and beach towels. Outside, there is a private sitting area with patio table and chairs and a barbecue. A Travel Cot and highchair can be provided at no extra cost. Free Wifi Access.
Also on site is our three bedroomed gite, Laurel Cottage, which sleeps up to six people plus cot.
We do have our own animals including a few dogs and several cats and our guests are also welcome to bring their pets so long as they are well behaved and kept under control at all times. There is an additional charge of £50.00 (55 Euros) per pet for the duration of your stay.
Between the months of September to May any heating used is an additional charge. As well as the air source heat pump there is an electric heater in each of the bedrooms of this cottage.
Other than mentioned above, all costs are included in the price quoted except for electricity. We have inline meters in each cottage which are read upon your arrival and on the day of your departure. Units are charged at exactly the same price as we pay our Electricity Company, no profit is made on the charge whatsoever. Payment will be required on the day of departure.
We have an area at the bottom of the rear garden where we house a variety of animals. There are some long stayers but, a lot of the animals are rescues and we rehome where we can so, numbers and variations are not always the same. They all love company though and are very happy with any food scraps going.
There is a small play area in the rear garden with a swing set for younger children and in our field next to the swimming pool is a badminton set up for anyone to use.

Great hosts, swimming pool and animals very welcoming to children
We had a short but sweet stay with Gillian and Martin. They were very friendly and helpful hosts! Our children loved the pool, but even more so the 3 dogs and other (farm) animals : ) Gillian has her own crafts workshop (pottery but also other arts and crafts) and if we had spent more time here, we would have probably followed a pottery class. Looked like lots of fun. Thanks to Gill & Martin for the lovely stay!

Thank you so much for your lovely review and we are glad that you enjoyed your stay even though it was a quick visit. We hope one day to see you again so that you can get those pottery works of art made! lol
We stayed just under a week and didn’t want to leave. Such a relaxing place with such wonderful hosts and the added bonus of the pottery studio and gorgeous dogs made it even better. We all made a piece to take home which we can’t believe we made. Thank you Gill for sharing your skills and patience with us. It was such a treat. Needless to say we already want to go back. x

Thank you for your lovely review. We really enjoyed having you all here and look forward to your return visit one day. We hope you had a good journey home xx
Wat een prachtige chateaus en ontzettende lieve gastheer en gastvrouw. We voelden ons meteen thuis toen we aankwamen en werden verwelkomd door drie honden en de opa-kat. Het huisje is erg sfeervol ingericht. De keuken bevat alles wat je maar nodig hebt. Het zwembad is heerlijk verwarmd en is een heerlijke plek om te relaxen. De schuur met de tafeltennistafel, de biljard en het andere speelgoed zorgt voor blije kinderen.
Gillian heeft met ons iets moois gemaakt in haar pottery. Erg fijne werkomgeving heeft ze.
Maar ons hoogtepunt: de goede gesprekken met de kalkoenen.

Thank you so much for your glowing review. It is really appreciated. The turkeys are missing their daily conversations with you! Lol
About the host
Hosted by Gillian Cossins
Gill and Martin moved to this most beautiful part of Brittany from England in 2001, having lived in Essex for the previous 25 years. They took over the property in Cornean with its two existing gites and have enjoyed the company of a stream of varied and interesting people holidaying with them for the past twenty four years. Many of these visitors, they are delighted to say, visit them year after year and have become good friends. The swimming pool and gardens were a huge bonus and when the barn next door came up for sale it added to their dream of having a pottery and craft studio on site as well. Gill teaches regular pottery and craft classes each week, to which guests are more than welcome to join in. Their dream was further realised when they added a little hobby farm for rescued animals.
Why they chose this property
Our property is very central and as such it is no problem to get to a great variety of interesting places, beaches, golf courses, shops and restaurants. On site you can enjoy the heated outdoor swimming pool and the games barn with bebefoot, table tennis, pool table and air hockey table. Both cottages are equipped with English and French satellite television, hairdryers and irons and have access to washing machine and ironing facilities. We also provide free Wifi access. Cots and high chairs can be provided also free of charge. All of the beds will be made up ready for your arrival and we provide a bath towel for each guest. The towels are for interior use only, you will need to provide your own pool and beach towels. A chauffeur and baby sitting service is available, for a small fee, if you would like to have a nice adult night out on your own.
Brittany is a very beautiful area of France with its own unique cultures and language. It is a green and pleasant land, as the song says, and will allow you to breath in pure fresh air, smell the daisies and recharge your batteries.
What makes this property unique
Pottery and Craft Holidays. We will arrange your art and craft holiday entirely around the things that you want to do and experience. We offer short breaks, self catering or all inclusive holidays and you can choose to bring your own transport or be picked up from our nearest Port or Airport and chauffeur driven for you stay. You can either concentrate on just one of the many subjects we cover, choose several options to have a go at or embrace the whole of course, on how long you intend to stay with us. There are lots of arts and craft classes to enjoy on our specially tailored holidays. Please contact the owner for more details.
