Property B014  

Child friendly 2 bedroom gite + natural water swimming hole - sleeping 4 plus 2 babies

This little paradise is tucked away in the countryside of Brittany, between the medieval city of Dinan and the small city of Jugon-les-Lacs, and a short drive away from stunning Côte d’Émeraude (The Emerald coast) with beautiful sandy beaches.

An ancient manor, probably from the time of the templar knights, is the home to the property owners, and its comfortable gite welcome friends and holiday guests all year round.

The manor and houses are situated on the 18 hectares of the property, and allow guests walks under century old oaks along the lake of Beaulieu, in the fir plantations, and in the fields. In the beautiful grounds you'll find the hidden fresh water swimming hole, an old reconverted granite quarry, filled with ground water, or perhaps you will prefer relaxing in our ecological spa.

You will not worry about your children while on holiday here as the road ends at the property, and there is no danger from passing cars. Little ones will play near the gite in the sandpit or in paddling pools, swing, slide or work in the hut. Children will follow animal tracks or build their own hut in the woods. There is no danger from the pool, it's too far from the cottages and playground and the hot tub is equipped with a safety lid. 

On your arrival to this wonderful gite you will be greeted by the property owners, and settled into your gite, and given a tour of the grounds.

The gite comprises 2 floors, with a kitchen/dining room, 2 shower rooms, sauna and 1 bedroom on the ground floor, and the master bedroom with sitting room on the 2^nd floor. Adjacent to the gite is a very large covered veranda area with large stone BBQ, tables and chairs and children’s toys.
