Guestbook
"Dave, Nicky, Olivia and Tom have been extremely friendly and helpful throughout the holiday here in Brittany. The weekly BBQ's are not to be missed! The setting has been ideal for our children, who have enjoyed playing in the pool and in and around the gites. We wish Dave & Nicky every success for the future at Quistinic and hope future holiday makers will have as pleasant and enjoyable time as we have."
"Great hols, fab location, good hosts. We've had a lovely time and seen some interesting places. We've had a mix of doing and resting and the children have enjoyed having others to play with."
"We had a great 2 weeks, mixing lazing around at Quistinic and days out. Perfect for us and the kids - the pool is a great a babysitter! Dave & Nicky have been excellent hosts, really helpful with suggestions and language and the BBQ is a good ice-breaker. Thanks for living up to our expectations and giving us a memorable holiday - we'll definitely be recommending it."
We have enjoyed two weeks of beautiful countryside, fantastic beaches, good food and the additional bonus of glorious sunshine - what more could we ask for. Nicky, Dave, Olivia and Tom have been wonderful hosts and made us feel part of the family. Thank you to the dogs and cats for entertaining and tolerating the children."
