I am pleased that a number of you on the forum liked the cottage over the last three years and hope that others will continue to do so. A mere ?150 a week. A taster below, PM me for pictures and full details.


1870 stone cottage near to Huelgoat in N Finistere. 40mins from coasts, 5 mins from town and village. Wild and less wild walks, cycling, cultural stuff, smaller theme parks, tree top adventure and plenty of other activities. A gentle nine hole golf course.


Comfortably sleeps 6, potentially more. 1/2 an acre of land. Not a five star villa with swimming pool put a holiday home we've had for 15 years and have used countless times.


Good if you like the outdoor life, a bit of privacy and want to avoid the masses. If you want five star luxury this isn't for you. I ask for a modest fee which helps cover expenses. It will be free at May half term and for most of the summer (I am taking for 9 - 13 July during the Tour de France. Minimum of a week but this can be done midweek to midweek to save on ferry costs and I am pretty flexible. The occasional helping hand eg pulling a few weeds out is appreciated.

Thanks for all the interest, I've got a couple of confirmations, and a couple still thinking. It would be nice to get a bit more use over the spring and summer. A reminder this is a rustic retreat on a casual basis, rather than a luxury complex. Ideal for many! Do send me your e-mail contact if possible so I can send full details. Cheers

    • There used to be a secondhand hifi & repair shop in the basement of where Love Dulwich Turkish BBQ & Meze Restaurant is at the moment.  I'm trying to find anyone who either remembers the name or even has contact details.  I'm trying to find someone who can do repairs on an old luxman, B&O, etc.  Keeping fingers crossed!
    • David Attenborough has also done programmes on this amazing relationship.  This is from 2010 but I am sure that there were more recent programmes on the Beeb https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p006ry61 Mummy trees are amazing.  
    • Have you considered PIV - positive input ventilation. We retro fitted a Soler & Palau super quiet in-line fan system. This takes cool air from the outside ans is ducted into the loft. It is really quiet and very efficient. It is controlled by a reverse thermostat ie one which shuts the system off when the temperature drops to a set level. We are very pleased with it especially as it costs a fraction of a/c and provides greater flexibility in terms of location of vents and ducting.
    • If you’re into nature or just love trees, this lovely program is worth catching up on https://www.channel5.com/show/the-secret-life-of-trees It’s one of those quietly fascinating watches that leave you thinking about the world a bit differently. I had no idea that trees are connected underground by fungal networks. They use them to share nutrients, water, and even to send signals to each other. They can recognise their kind and give more support to their “relatives” than to other trees nearby. They can also remember things like droughts or pest attacks and change how they respond in the future. No wonder so many cultures and spiritual traditions view trees as sacred. In some belief systems, cutting one down is thought to carry serious karmic consequences. When you learn about how they live, communicate, and support one another, it makes sense. The natural world is far more aware and interconnected than we tend to realise.
