The gites are 95m2 - 112m2 and sleep 6 people in 3 bedrooms. The comfortable, open-plan sitting room has a fireplace with a wood burning stove (to be installed during autumn 2008) and central heating making them suitable for both summer and winter breaks. There is a sofa and easy chairs, a coffee table and a television (terrestrial stations only), a radio, a CD player and a DVD player, complete with a wide selection of films for you to watch during your stay.

Each of the gites has its own small terrace with garden furniture, which is fenced off to the side from the adjoining gites giving some privacy.

The Brittany / Finistere region
North west Brittany is rugged and breathtaking, possibly the best place on earth to sample fresh, locally landed seafood. The region is positively steeped in tradition and you are almost bound to come upon a Breton festival will its trade-mark Celtic music, dancing and traditional costumes. Magnificent beaches abound interspersed by fashionalble resorts and quaint fishing villages. Light houses and offshore islands punctuate the seascape providing homes for thousands of bird species.
Brest has a wide range of tourist attractions from Oceanopolis, reputedly Europe’s most impressive aquarium, to a fine arts museum and the Maritime Museum with guided visits of the naval base.
Guisseny area
A short 2km drive or cycle ride will take you to a lovely sandy beach. There are many good footpaths and bridle paths making this a good way to explore the area. The local tourist office is very active and enthusiastic, organising many events. A favourite amongst previous visitors has been the ‘twilight walk’ which is rather like a walking treasure hunt with a guide dressed in traditional Breton costume. Guisseny is a typical Breton village with attractive stone buildings and a good range of amenities including a boulangerie, a small 8-8 grocery store, a bicycle hire shop, banks and several bars. It is just 5 minutes drive to Plougerneau where there is an Intemarche supermarket and 10 minutes drive to Leznevin where you will find large Casino and Leclerc supermarkets. There a re are wide range of activities available in the vicinity which include: cycling, swimming, fishing, tennis, sailing, horse riding, golf, walking, spa/health resort
How to get there
The gite is just 40km or 35 minutes drive from Roscoff, where there is a regular Brittany Ferries service to Plymouth. Alternatively, if you prefer to fly, Brest Airport is only 34 km or 25 minutes drive away with many of the major car hire companies available there. Flights with Flybe operate from Birmingham, Exeter, Manchester and Southampton to Brest, whilst Ryanair operate Luton to Brest. You can take the TGV train and with the new link to St Pancras it takes around 8 hours to Brest. You can hire a car from the station and we would strongly reccommend that you do so if you opt for the train.
