Make some memories at this unique and family-friendly place. Why not book either a seaweed bath or lavender milk bath on arrival! This will be prepared for you in the private outdoor hot bath! You can bring bubbles and essential oils of your choice to this massive round bath and watch the stars in the clear uninterrupted skies… We have two Pygmy goats which can be viewed from your cottage, also 20 chickens will roam free and provide you with fresh eggs for breakfast.
We just love to share our beautiful area with guests. I'm a feeder beware. But don't worry I'll leave you to enjoy this little slice of paradise in private! We renovated a wee property in central Brittany, but it was sad, not to get to meet the guests and make them feel at home, in person, so we sold up and invested in this wee croft (mini farm) I make the most fabulous focaccia bread which I'll make fresh for you and my blue flower milky bath soak will have you sleeping soundly!
There's lots to see and do, eat and drink in the peninsula..... But most guests who come here, just don't want to leave, so kick back, relax, unwind and recharge xx or....let me know and I'll unleash a lifetime of regional knowledge on you .....
