We are in a very quiet rural location away from any busy roads or industrial activities. There is occasional passing traffic from a nearby farm. We enjoy lovely rural views across the valley to the river l'Oust and are just a few minutes walk from the Brest to Nantes canal which stretches from east to west Brittany and is perfect for strolling, jogging or cycling. The Abbaye de Timadeuc, an interesting Cistercian Abbey, is just opposite us on the other side of the canal. The monks there are always happy to welcome visitors to join them for prayer, have a stroll around or buy homemade produce at their gift shop.

    Een kekker huisje met geweldige hosts. Het huisje is leuk ingericht, compleet en heeft een prachtig uitzicht.
    Heerlijk rustig, dichtbij kanaal (fietsen) en leuke kleine plaatsjes. Wel wat verder van grotere plaatsen en zee.
