malumbu Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 As the half term ends, and winter is almost upon us, our thoughts turn to sunnier times. After a fallow year due to Covid we are making our holiday cottage available again at a small cost for family and 'new' friends to enjoy.A taster below, PM me for pictures and full details. Very family friendly but suitable for couples and groups too.Just ?180 a week which helps towards expenses.Built in 1870 this stone cottage is near to Huelgoat in North Finistere. 40mins from coasts, 5 mins from townand village. Wild and less wild walks, cycling (a number of bikes are provided), wildlife, cultural stuff, smaller theme parks, tree top adventure and plenty of other activities. A gentle nine hole golf course.Large bedroom with double four poster bed, bunks and spare single bed. Second double bedroom. Large lounge with wood burner, Bed settee downstairs and glamping in the barn! Bedding, BBQ, games, table football canoe and other stuff provided. Refurbished bathroom with large walk in shower. Comfortably sleeps six, potentially more, could take two families at a push. 1/2 an acre of land.Ideal if you like the outdoor life, star gazing, a bit of privacy and want to avoid the masses. A minimum of a week but this can be done midweek to midweek.[Edited to add new shower, will add some photos later] Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/296834-brittany-cottage-available-for-2022-holidays-only-180-for-a-week/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElenaR Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Hello, We are interested, have two boys, 4 and 7 years old, that like the outdoors and your place sounds nice. We have driven to Europe before brexit, considerably farther than Brittany, so it could work.If I could have some photos of the space outside and perhaps the kitchen that would be helpful.Many thanksElena Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/296834-brittany-cottage-available-for-2022-holidays-only-180-for-a-week/#findComment-1546145 Share on other sites More sharing options...

malumbu Posted January 13, 2022 Author Share Posted January 13, 2022 With today's news that France is opening up again some of us will be turning our thoughts to a summer holiday. Thanks to those who have already contacted me. I'm pretty flexible so there is no need for any commitment, as we wait to see how Covid pans out. It is probably a good time to arrange cheap ferry fares, most of the operators are flexible, as we experienced in both 2020 and 2021. It would be nice to have visitors again, as many through EDF have stayed in earlier years.

malumbu Posted January 16, 2022 Author Share Posted January 16, 2022 FYI the cottage is available from after Easter till September. There is heating but over the colder months you'd be burning a forest.

malumbu Posted May 28, 2022 Author Share Posted May 28, 2022 A nice photo taken by a neighbour yesterday showing the roses in bloom. The pink ones I am particularly excited about as the rose was planted 15 years ago and until this year was a disaster. I'm cycling there with friends next week to see in person. Perhaps I should retitle this thread cheap holiday home in exchange for a bit of pruning and dead heading! Still plenty of availability for friends and new friends!PM me for more details.
