Baker shop 1 min from front door. Canal path two mins walk. Steep internal stairs to bedrooms and from car parking; beware if you are of limited mobility. Great sun trap in garden and secure parking. Wonderful market. Lots of restaurants with meal at hotel across the canal (2 mins walk) is highly recommended. ##### IanT This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sean Bartholomew B. Jul 10, 2023 #### Almost Perfect A charming property in a stunning location It just needs a few bits and pieces to make it perfect Although it sleeps 6..there is only seating available for 4 in the lounge The kitchen needs a few extra items ie..microwave and serving dishes etc We loved it and will return ##### Sean Bartholomew B. ### 8/10 Good #### Holly C.

We had a very relaxing week here. Wonderful location with walking from the doorstep around town and along the canal sides. . A choice of eating places with easy reach from creperie to something a little more fancy . With , a bakery straight across the road it was easy to get fresh croissants for breakfast . (Shuts on Wednesday - others available)) Enjoyed sitting on the patio area watching the birds at the feeders and just taking in the ambiance. The daily step count was improved with all the stairs to negotiate from the driveway to the top of the house - but no issue if you capable . Bikes and helmets also provided. ##### David D.

My title probably sums up how I feel about the holiday i had there with my wife and sister. The house is substantial over 4 floors but we did not use the very basement area this time. The front goes into a hallway on the 1st floor to a very well stocked and equipped kitchen. All works well. Great lounge with fab views...All the bedrooms are large and could sleep 6 with ease. Secure parking from the bottom garden. We were met my Edward (Who is great!!!) very nice man who helped us with a minor issue but also provided great advice on where to go For us ( and yes I know if you look for faults i expect you might find a few) but we went to enjoy it and the house, position and area are "Perfect" I 100% recommend and will if able go again! One slight issue is that the TV is a little dated and I think is on the way out and is pixilated but again a minor and easy fix with a new one in the future ##### Desmond P.

Jul 8, 2023 #### Perfect Holiday Thank you for the best holiday accommodation we have ever stayed in! The location was stunning and the house was beautiful inside with the best quality furnishings, bedding and towels. So comfortable. Sadly the patisserie opposite had closed down but we found the other one about a 10 minute walk away, delicious. We had an issue with getting the TV working but the very helpful Edward came to our rescue! There was no microwave in the kitchen although in the description it states there was one. Also it would be handy if there was a colander/ sieve among the equipment. A day trip to Vannes was so interesting and Edward recommended the market at Malestroit which was in a fabulous location. We had taken our electric bikes to the property and spent many happy hours cycling along the canal. Evenings spent on the patio looking at the swallows, swifts and house martins trying the local wine and cider. Perfection!! Thank you! ##### Jenny W. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Felipe M.

La casa es preciosa, cómoda y está maravillosamente situada. Tiene todo lo necesario y han pensado en todo para hacerte la estancia más placentera. El pueblo es pequeñito pero encantador, ademas tiene uno de los castillos más bonitos de la zona y un río con una vía verde kilométrica y genial para caminar o ir en bici. También hemos podido conocer muchos otros pueblos y ciudades de los alrededores. Una casa de lo más recomendable y un pueblo al que esperamos volver. Un 10 ##### Felipe M.
