Photos and Description of the Bieuzy vacation rental 5 Bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 1 shower room; sleeps 9

Built about two hundred years ago, the house is typical of farmhouses of the time: stone-built with walls nearly a metre thick, exposed roof trusses and an eccentric layout - the sitting room is reached through a short tunnel! The appliances are comprehensive. The front garden has a small south-facing terrace with garden furniture and a set of swings; the back garden, containing the pool, is accessed either by a gate from the front or by the back door of the house. It is almost entirely private, and with the exception of the shaded area by the back door catches the sun all day. The paving around the pool has been extended to provide a terrace for sun-bathing and barbecues.

The house is in the centre of the hamlet of Kersulan - high on the rolling country around the valley of the river Blavet. It provides the ideal location for those seeking a peaceful and relaxing holiday, and is an admirable touring base. St Nicolas des Eaux, a tourist centre on the river, is five minutes away by car. The market towns of Pontivy and Baud are 15 minutes' drive and the picturesque port of Auray is just 45 minutes away. In an hour you can visit the beautiful seaside towns of Carnac and Quiberon with their expanses of golden beach. The 9- (soon to be eighteen)-hole Rimaison golf course is 10 minutes away from the properties.

Notes: Access to the internet is informal: come next door and see the owner. (These days it is a little primitive, insofar as it is dial-up; but broadband just hasn't reached Brittany yet.....) The kitchen has a Rayburn cooker - generally not used in the season, but ready and able should you wish. (If the weather is really bad we may have to discuss a contribution towards fuel costs.) The sitting room has a wood-burning stove. Pets are not merely CONSIDERED: well brought up versions are hugely welcome.

Further details for this vacation rental in Bieuzy, France

Peter Firth, the owner, lives in the adjoining house, and tries to maintain a balance between availability when needed and discretion when not. It is not for him to say whether this is entirely successful - but it does appear to please the guests thus far. Peter bought the house six years ago from an English couple who had restored the two properties over a period of ten years to a high standard. The tone of the decor is rustic, in keeping with the eccentric layout of the house. The level of appointments is high, and comprehensive.

Special attention has been paid to safety around the pool: access to the area is either through a lockable door or a secure gate - both of which would defeat a toddler. While the point has to be made that nothing can replace parental vigilance, those provisions and the presence of an immersion alarm on the pool itself (a French legal requirement) do contribute to peace of mind.

Other Activities: bird-watching, touring, local history (much of it pre-christian)
