Further details indoors:
The 100 year old cottage was a breton farmhouse and has been recently restored.
The cottage still has the original timber and beams and the barn opposite is kitted out with table tennis, pool table, dartboard and plenty of games for the children of all ages.
We live close by so we can offer help and advice recommending local restaurants, bars, markets beaches etc if required.
Further details outdoors:
A new 6 x 4 mt pool has recently been installed with a decking attached.
Why not take the kayaks or the boat down to the village and pick up a baguette or croissants.
Or use the bikes and cycle along the tow path that stretches for miles in both directions and try to spot kingfishers and otters.
Also you could take a picnic and stop along side the river by one of the locks.
St Nicolas des Eaux is 300 mts away and has bars, restaurants, bistro and a tourist information centre.
Hire the motor boat and have a day exploring the river.
