The hamlet and surrounding St Andre Des Eaux commune has a population of approximately 200 people. It is primarily agricultural. The local church, adjacent to the house, opens once a month for services and for weddings/baptisms. There is a 15th century church ruin, the Mairie and a bar/restaurant from which you can order bread and fresh vegetables.
The Tour de France runs through St Andre Des Eaux and a variety of local festivals are held throughout the year.

What a lovely gite. Light, airy and so comfortable. It was wonderfully quiet and relaxing, sipping a glass of wine on the patio whilst waiting for dinner to cook. Morning trips into Evran for croissants, pain au chocolat and other pastries from one of the excellent boulangeries and later into Lehan, Dinan or further to Cancale for excellent lunches and evening meals. The children particularly enjoyed saying good morning to the cows. We will definitely reccommend this gite to friends and hope to come back ourselves soon. Response: Thank you for your positive comments. We are so pleased you enjoyed the gite, the surrounding area and, most importantly, the relaxed, French lifestyle. We look forward to welcoming you back soon. |
