Retraite paisible confirmée 😍😍😍

Le gîte est certes petit mais tellement cosy et bien aménagé. Nous avons passé une très bonne semaine de vacances avec nos enfants. Le calme du village nous a fait un bien fou. Le panier offert par la propriétaire était excellent. Bref, à recommander.

Breton Haven

This cottage is such a quaint place! It's all very thoughtfully arranged. And the garden is also so nicely composed. The smell of the honeysuckle is amazing! We even spotted a hummingbird hawkmoth! All in all, the house is not very spacious but alright for 2 grown-ups and 2 kids. And outside there's a big table to eat outside. The kitchen is totally equipped and there's a washing machine in the cellar, which is very handy. The village is really small and idyllic, albeit a bit remote. That needs to be considered beforehand. We enjoyed the quiet very much. And the busy, bubbly and outstandingly beautiful city of Dinan is just around the corner (a 10 minute drive away!). And many other sights are within reach, like Saint Malo, Mont Saint Michel, beautiful beaches etc. Go visit Whileaway Cottage!
