The house

  • Quiet, rural area with some agricultural activity

ACCOMMODATION FOR 6 -8 PERSONS
This holiday home is spacious 150m2 and suitable for 6 to 8 people. It is situated in the right part of the main house. We live in the left part.
It has a spacious, somewhat higher, south-facing terrace from which you have a nice overview of the courtyard and garden. You enter the gite, immediately to the right is a toilet, walk through the hallway and find yourself in the living room (40m2).
With the 4 meter high ceiling, the wooden beams and old granite fireplace you will immediately feel the rich history of this huge Breton property.
In the back house you will find the fully equipped kitchen (21m2). This 60s American kitchen includes a dishwasher, oven, microwave, 4 burner cooker and large fridge / freezer.
You can enjoy dining with 8 people around the second wood stove.

On a small quiet road, 1km from the French village Prat, lies our Breton holiday farm 'Le Cheval Rouge' from 1880. In 2003 we converted this empty farmhouse into 3 gites: lovely spacious holiday homes, each with its own character. On our 1-hectare site, we have also created a small-scale and natural campsite where we rent out 8 permanent tents.

Surroundings

Our farmhouse is located in Northern Brittany, at the Cotes d'Armor, in the village of Prat (5km north of Begard). At 15 to 25 km you will find several sandy beaches.
Characteristic villages such as Lannion, Guingamp, Pontrieux or Tréquier are at 10 to 15km.
At 5 minutes walking distance there is a delicious bakery on the village square. But for fresh bread, milk, eggs, homemade yoghurt and jam you don't have to leave the house.
Brittany is a paradise for nature and sports lovers. Whether you like hiking, cycling, swimming, golfing, fishing, kayaking, sailing, scuba diving, kite surfing, mountain climbing or horse riding, everything is possible.
Of course, you can also go out on your own; maps, bicycles and tips are freely available.

  • Rural
  • Meadows and woodland
  • In or near a village
  • At the farm

Restaurants, food & wine

Cider, Calvados, oysters, Breton crepes with caramel salé, these are some of the famous and delicious dishes and drinks to be found here in the area. Chantal also cooks with great pleasure and passion healthy and especially delicious dishes during the table d'hotes evenings. We try to get the ingredients from our own vegetable garden or fresh from the beach.

Activities

In the main season, many families with children visit us. The best compliment we receive is when a child does not want to go with its parents to the beach, but just wants to stay and play on the site.
Our site is very safe for children. The road, which is very quiet, can only be entered and exited through the entrance to the site.
The rabbit hutch was the most popular spot for children last year since there were so many small animals running around.
We also organise various day trips and activities for young and old.
We have listed all the activities for you below.
#Farm visit with pancake making for big and small, cost €10.00 for big, €6.50 for small.
First we visit the farmer where we get the milk, and see farm life up close. Then we sift the grain to grind it into flour at the mill on the campsite. With some eggs from the henhouse, we are complete. And then we mix and bake. Who will make the biggest pancake? Unlimited, bacon, cheese and lots of sweetness.
#Canoe tour. Costs €26,00 place in the motorboat for €10,00
In July and August, we organise canoe trips to a number of islands just off the coast. Olivier lets you explore the sea by canoe and the little ones can join us in the motorboat. Outside the main season we organise day trips on request. Of course, you can also go out by canoe yourself.
#Oyster safari. Cost €12.50 for adults €7.50 for children
Because the differences in tides in Brittany are very large (up to 11m), a walk on the tidal flats at low tide is one big discovery. We walk to the little islands, which can only be reached on foot at that time, and collect seafood for the evening meal. During this walk, Olivier explains everything about the flora and fauna at the bottom of the ocean.
#Kinderkookcafe: Cost €6.00 per person
Get your hands dirty with dough, make crunchy biscuits with Chantal and the girls, bake the biggest chocolate cake, decorate mini cakes or make a pizza. Whatever the case, it will always be a feast.
#Shells list making. Cost €6.50 per person
Have you found such beautiful shells on the beach? Together with us, you can make a beautiful frame for your best holiday photo.
#Birthday cake
Normal cake costs €15. Superrrrr big cake with fire spout €38
Chantal also makes with much love a beautiful cake to celebrate your birthday during your holiday at le Cheval Rouge.
#Building huts / table tennis / puppet theatre show & much more....
Lots of fun for young and old....
A number of beautiful huts have already been built, but there are still pallets and nails in abundance. Mum and dad can supervise. Table tennis matches bubble up spontaneously, we will provide a cup. We organise a children's campfire every week. Are you in for a children's disco or a puppet show? You can organise one in our common room.
#Pre-Summer-Toddler action month of June
Especially for families with young children
If you are not yet tied to the school holidays, but you do like it when there is disturbance and some activities are organised around the children, then you may like to have a restaurant at home every evening at the time agreed with you. You can then put your children to bed and enjoy your dinner and a glass of wine in peace.
#Table D' Hotes
If you don't feel like cooking or if you really want to eat well, join us at our shared dinner table....
During mid and high season, you can enjoy a delicious 3-course menu on Sundays and Thursdays. Chantal aims for 100% organic with mainly products from her own garden. You automatically book these 2 evenings in addition to the booking price (from 12 years €19.00 / 5-11 years €8.50 / 3-4 years €5.00). Please let us know if you are a vegetarian or if you are not allowed to eat certain foods. Outside the main season you can order a table d'hote meal on site.
