Recommended Posts

Our holiday cottage of 20 years is available at a small cost for family and 'new' friends to enjoy. Ferry and flight costs for the summer are pretty reasonable at present so it may be worth considering before they rocket. It is free for the summer hols after 4 August, at May half term and for most of the spring and also into the Autumn. I'll upload a few pictures later today


PM me for pictures and full details. Very family friendly but suitable for couples and groups too.


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, bikes, canoe and other stuff provided. Refurbished bathroom with large walk in shower. Comfortably sleeps six, potentially more, could take two young families, 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 flexible on arrival and departure days.

Don't be shy! Some more photos attached, PM/DM me with your e-mail or number and I'll send full details in a PDF. The bathroom was modernised two years ago with a full size double shower head walk in shower, a range coooker is being installed in the kitchen as part of an update (keeping the cottage look!).

There are some Black Friday offers with Brittany Ferries, school holiday ferry crossings are still reasonably priced. I'll be fitting a range cooker and some other improvements over coming months and having an outbuilding re-roofed (how exciting!).


Bathroom picture attached, difficult to get a wide angle but shows the new walk in shower. It has a toilet in the shower room and a second separate toilet.

I'm afraid no broadband - it simply isn't used enough to justify, and for most 4g signal is good enough, or using free wifi in bars and the like. For those that have to work (surely not on holiday) you can get yourself a 4/5g box and a local sim card - unlimited wifi for a month is about £40


But for many it is nice to be slightly remote, will at least to have a break from gaming - old school board games, cards etc provided in the house and even a jigsaw or three. And small snooker table and a proper bar football table. Petanque too of course

    • 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.
    • I installed an all-in-one air conditioning unit at my holiday home since I wasn’t allowed to have an external fan unit outside. It actually works just as well, was easier to fit, and although it’s slightly noisier, it’s a good solution overall. https://www.orionairsales.co.uk/all-in-one-air-conditioning-142-c.asp?srsltid=AfmBOopZSVZj1_utAO-Hr4m5M323nRZru6Zmf1YuT4KP2touJ2OLaruU
