Very good

Wir haben uns in diesem gemütlichen Ferienhaus sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Sanitärräume sind nicht auf dem neuesten Stand, für uns war dies aber völlig in Ordnung.
Es gibt am Ort noch zwei sehr gute Bäckereien, eine Post und ein Intermarche, somit kann man alles Notwendige schnell vor Ort einkaufen.
Der Ort bietet ausserdem einen schönen gepflegten Spazierweg am Bach entlang mit Fitnessgeräten, Spielplatz, Basketball- und Fussballfeld.
Auch für Hundespaziergänge oder zum Joggen sehr schön.
Von der Lage her gut, wenn man sowohl ans Meer wie ins Hinterland will und nicht so extrem touristisch wie die Orte am Meer.
Wir kommen gerne wieder.
Nous avons passé de merveilleux moments en famille : déjeuners et jeux dans le jardin avec nos petits enfants, le tout en écoutant le chant des oiseaux...Calme, sérénité sont au rendez vous. Aux environs, les espaces jeux pour les enfants (Jugon, Dolo) sont très bien conçus pour des petits de moins de 3 ans. La visite de l'abbaye de Boquen était également très enrichissante.
La propriétaire est très réactive pour répondre à nos questions et la gardienne très efficace pour satisfaire nos demandes.
Nous recommandons ce gite.
Maison de charme cachée et jardin agréable au soleil
Visite des environs, partagée avec temps au jardin ensoleillé.
Un peu peu de vaisselle. Pas de réserve de couverts...notamment.
Sinon, très chouette endroit, bien situé. Pas loin de balades (balade des Douaniers, St Malo, Cap Frehel, Dinan, Rennes, St Sulliac (plus beau village de France).
Maison très bien équipée, et bien agencée, sur un terrain vaste et clos.
Il manquait juste des volets aux fenêtres des chambres pour ne pas être réveillé avec le jour à 6h00.
Large house with a very large garden, perfect for us and for the dogs.

About the host
Hosted by Julie Schofield
I live in Yorkshire and I like to spend time in France. Ty Mad originally belonged to the village Miller who had it built in the 1950's. It retains many of its original features, beamed ceilings and a stone fireplace but it has a new roof, a new heating system and has been completely re-wired. What attracted me to the cottage was the chalet style of the property, unlike a lot of Brittany cottages it has big windows which make the rooms light and airy. The cottage also has a fantastic garden, with lawns and fruit trees. I enjoy my trips to the Ty Mad and I strive to provide a great holiday experience for my guests.
Why they chose this property
Ty Mad is located in the pretty countryside of northern Brittany and is within easy access of a number of places. The lakeside town of Jugon-les-lacs is just 5 miles away. It has a heated open air swimming pool and you can go boating on the lake, there is also a selection of good restaurants. The medieval town of Dinan is just under 30 minutes drive, you can look around the many shops or take a boat ride along the river. I like to go on Thursday mornings to the market for the fresh local produce and then have lunch at the artisan creperie. The emerald coast is only 35 minutes drive, there are seven different beaches and you can chose to go to one of the more secluded beaches or you can go to one of the established resorts and take part in activities such as diving or beach volley ball.
What makes this property unique
The cottage stands in half an acre of garden which has the advantage of being centrally located in a village with all the amenities and being secluded as it is hidden from view by a high wall and gate on the road side. This makes for a peaceful and relaxing holiday with the convenience of the local shops and bars. The village bakery is just round the corner from the cottage and I like to go there in the morning for freshly baked bread and croissants. The central location of Ty Mad also makes it a great place from which to experience French life and culture. There are a number of holiday homes in the village but Plenee-Jugon is still a working French village and there are a number of events which take place throughout the year in Plenee-Jugon and surrounding villages such as musical evenings and cycle races.
