About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

A Pretty Stone Cottage, Beautifully Renovated, Full of Charm and Character.

The gîte is part of the ancient Manoir de la Boissière and is situated adjacent to the owners' property. The downstairs living area is approximately 45 square metres in size and has comfortable seating for six with flat-screen satellite TV , DVD player, CD Player and BOSE sound dock for an ipod. There is a broadband connection with WiFi.. The fitted kitchen is fully equipped, including electric oven and ceramic hob, large fridge/freezer, microwave, dishwasher and a very quiet Miele washing machine. In addition to the wood-burning stove, heating is provided by two electric radiators. The kitchen cupboards provide plenty of storage and an under-sink water heater provides instant hot water. A selection of board games is available.

Upstairs, the main bedroom features a super king-size (i.e. 6-ft wide) bed, with bedside tables, a wardrobe and two chests of drawers; in the second bedroom there are twin beds, a chest of drawers and bedside table. Both bedrooms are fitted with electric radiators. The shower room is fully tiled with a 90cm quadrant shower cubicle, a large wash basin and heated towel rail. Hot water for washing and showering is provided by a large-capacity immersion heater.

Outside, there is a courtyard and terrace at the front equipped with outdoor dining furniture. At the rear, there is a large field for children to play, while parents relax on the sun-loungers that are provided and enjoy the view over open countryside. There is plenty of parking space.

Situated in a small hamlet in the commune of Plusquellec, this pretty cottage is just a mile-and-a-half outside the market town of Callac. Here, as well as the popular weekly market each Wednesday morning, you will find two supermarkets, two bakers, a post office, three banks, a butchery/charcuterie, a patisserie, a newsagent, a wine merchant, two florists and a pharmacy as well as several bars, restaurants and petrol stations and a very nice gift shop.

In common with the greater part of rural France, most shops close on Mondays, but are open throughout the rest of the week, including Sunday mornings. The supermarkets are open seven days a week (mornings only on Sundays). Callac also has its own railway station, from where the train to Guingamp connects with the TGV line between Paris and Brest. And if you fall in love with the area and decide you want a holiday home of your own, there are three estate agents to help you make the choice!
During your stay at this cottage, you'll be close to Valley of the Saints. The cottage includes amenities such as free WiFi and a kitchen.

SUPERB FACILITIES AND SUPERB HOSTS
We spent a week at the Banks' lovely cottage in Brittany. The cottage had everything that we required and Bryn and Val had provided all the little extras that are needed when away from home, which included a very generous welcome pack. The hosts' hospitality was second to none throughout our stay. We can only repeat that everything about the accommodation was superb and we highly recommend the property for all those wanting to visit Brittany.

Perfect cottage, perfect location, perfect hosts
We loved our week in the Gite au Manoir. Our goal was to spend the week touring Brittany by bicycle... we wanted to see as many different parts of the area as possible without spending hours in the car to get to and from each day's ride. Le Git au Manoir is perfectly located for this - we could get to just about everywhere we wanted to go within an hour to an hour and a half. It's also really convenient that Callac is on the doorstep for shopping and eating out, with even more restaurant choices in towns a little farther afield. However, we found that we spent most evenings eating in - the gite is so cozy, relaxing and welcoming that we preferred whipping up something "at home" to getting back in the car to go to a restaurant. It's also very well-stocked - we found everything we needed to cook meals, do laundry, even clean our bikes after a muddy day! Bryn and Val are great hosts - very welcoming, very helpful and very friendly - it was a pleasure to meet them. We hope to spend more time in the future touring around Brittany and we hope to go back and stay in Le Gite au Manoir when we do!

★★★★★ Excelent hosts, superb accommodation, relaxing location.
Excellent/good bits: Bryn and Val are fantastic hosts, living in a beautiful manor on site they are near enough to provide assistance and advice, but savvy enough to give you plenty of personal space when/if required. The Gite is well thought out, large, homely, and spotlessly clean with your own outside areas, front and rear, so always shade or sun as required. Bad bits: None. Idiosyncrasies: The upstairs floors may squeak and groan a little, but are made from a lovely warm solid wood. Callac is a nice small friendly town with good supermarket and other specialist shops. A couple of restaurants, including crepes and pizza. A great base for working from, we managed trips out to all points on the Brittany compass with the furthest coastal region being around 1 1/2 hours relaxed drive. Favourite towns were Quimper and Morlaix. (the run to Morlaix was around 60 minutes along a relaxing, well maintained single carriageway road. We did hit it once during "rush Hour" and must have passed as many as 30 cars in total!! during the complete journey. Time permitting, we will return. So thanks Bryn & Val for everything, especially the wine. Steve & Jacqueline

Home away from home
We could not have wished for a better accommodation for our summer break. Not only was the Gîte exactly as described, the hosts Bryn and Val were the warmest, friendliest, most welcoming people we ever encountered on a holiday. Everything was perfect, the location is a fantastic starting point to explore the beauty and diversity of Brittany or just to relax on a chair in the garden and spend the day reading and taking in the atmosphere. Highly recommended!

Beautiful home in the heart of Brittany
We stayed for one week in this tastefull and well equipped house. The welcome by Val and Bryn was very warm, and they provided us with lots of helpful information for day trips and shopping. An excellent location to discover the different coasts of Brittany!

Ein toller Standort zur Erkundung der Bretagne
Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt in der schönen und üppig ausgestatteten Ferienwohnung. Alles da was man braucht. Ein idealer und ruhig und zentral gelegener Ausgangspunkt zur Erkundung der Bretagne. Und Val und Bryn sind die nettesten Vermieter die wir je hatten. Super!

Unreservedly recommended.
Bryn's & Val's lovely gîte allowed us to have exactly the kind of tranquil break we had been looking for: our meals out-of-doors on the front patio; nooks and crannies round the yard and garden (not to mention the neighbour's dog Holly/Oli and the alpacas just up the road) irresistible to a 6 year old; the indoor brocante just down the road (where we found Sarreguemines ceramic bowls for an excellent price); the closeness of fantastic local food markets, supermarkets, bakeries; the chance to prepare our meals in a kitchen equipped with everything a cook could wish for; the chance to explore another town and a different beach each afternoon; the lovely breezes moving through the house as the day advanced; a log fire each evening; being able to sleep deeply and soundly each night. Our hosts were warm and kind. Their personal file of recommendations was invaluable. We were delighted to have been lucky enough to find such a place to spend a precious holiday week, and such people to allow this to happen.

Wunderschönes Haus in der Bretagne
In diesem geschmackvoll eingerichteten Ferienhaus haben wir wunderbare drei Wochen verbracht. Von hier konnte man die Bretagne sehr gut erkunden. Erwähnen möchten wir noch die Freundlichkeit der Vermieter Bryn und Val die uns einen herzlichen Empfang bereitet haben. Dieses schöne Feriendomizil können wir uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen. Noch ein Restauranttip: La Cameline, 5 Promenade de la Meloine, Primel, 29630 PLOUGASNOU, Tel.: 0298723881 Hervorragende Küche und einen wundervollen Ausblick aufs Meer. E. u. A. Holm, Berlin

Wunderbarer Bretagne-Urlaub
Das Haus ist sauber, groß, geschmackvoll eingerichtet und perfekt ausgestattet. Wir hatten zu viert zwei tolle Wochen. Bryn und Val sind die freundlichsten Vermieter, die man sich denken kann, und das Haus ist ein guter Ausgangspunkt, um die Bretagne in alle Richtungen zu erkunden.
