Welcome to our lovely gite 'Kersidan' - Breton for ‘Place of Peace’. The gite is a converted stone walled barn, approximately 300 years old.

It is set in beautiful gardens and is part of a small hamlet with only four other houses, surrounded by rolling farmland and woods. The cottage has its own secluded garden and apart from the main house there are no immediate neighbours.
Kersidan is ideally situated for exploring Brittany and its many historic towns and villages. The spectacular Southern Brittany coast with its glorious beaches and quaint fishing ports is within easy access.

Kersidan sleeps two guests comfortably in a kingsize bed and there is an additional double sofabed in the living area. A cot and high chair are also available. The gite is ideal for couples.

The gite has a shower room and toilet upstairs and a luxury bathroom downstairs. It features a fully equipped kitchen with electric oven, gas hob, microwave, washing machine and a table seating four. There is a television providing UK and French channels and a DVD player. Free Wi-Fi Broadband Internet access is included.

Bienvenue dans notre charmant gîte 'Kersidan' - Breton pour 'Lieu de Paix'. Le gîte est une ancienne grange en pierre reconvertie, vieille d'environ 300 ans. Il a été joliment restauré et a conservé de nombreuses caractéristiques d'origine telles que les pierres et les poutres apparentes et dispose de tout le nécessaire pour des vacances confortables et relaxantes. Il est situé dans de beaux jardins et fait partie d'un petit hameau avec seulement quatre autres maisons, entouré de terres agricoles et de bois. Le chalet a son propre jardin clos et à part la maison principale, il n'y a pas de voisins immédiats.
Kersidan est idéalement situé pour découvrir la Bretagne et ses nombreuses villes et villages historiques. La spectaculaire côte sud de la Bretagne avec ses magnifiques plages et ses ports de pêche pittoresques est facilement accessible.

Kersidan peut accueillir confortablement deux personnes dans un lit king-size et il y a un canapé-lit double supplémentaire dans le salon. Un lit bébé et une chaise haute sont également disponibles. Le gîte est idéal pour les couples.

About the host

Hosted by Mark and Alison Brooke-Read

Host profile image
Thank you for taking the time to look at our lovely gite in Brittany, 'Kersidan'. We are extremely proud of the gite and our detached house which is situated alongside. Our previous guests have given us excellent feedback, not only the gite itself but also the gardens, surrounding countryside and the local area. We live and in the UK and we acquired Kersidan in May 2010. It was a dream come true for us and we have never looked back. The problem we have is getting enough time to spend there. Whether it's summer or winter, we enjoy every visit we make. If you do travel out to our gite we're confident that you'll have a relaxing, comfortable and enjoyable time. Mark and Alison Brooke-Read

Why they chose this property

We wanted a country retreat and a bolt-hole from the hectic UK lifestyle. The surrounding area has everything we wanted - peace, local amenities and access to beaches. Since owning Kersidan we have made many good friends with neighbours and the local farming community - everyone has made us very welcome.

What makes this property unique

Relaxation, peace and quiet. Easy access to places of interest and the southern Brittany beaches and coastline.
