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 town

and 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]

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 thanks


Elena

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.

Just returned from a lovely sunny few days in the cottage. Heard tawny owls and had a pipistrelle bat flying close for a few nights. The swallows had just arrived and spring flowers a plenty.


Still loads of space, I hope some of you will be able to enjoy our holiday home in coming months.


Only paperwork needed is proof of vaccination. Pretty straight forward going through passport control on both sides.


Scroll to top for more details and I'll send you full info if you contact me via a PM


Several bikes and an inflatable canoe at the cottage, games, small pool table and a proper table football 'babyfoot'!

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.

      New Empanada Place on LL

      By beansprout · Posted

      Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?

      Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain.

      Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
