We had a lovely two week stay at Laurence and Jacky’s property, the garden in particular is gorgeous and vast. The location is great and locations like St Malo, Dinard, Dinan, Cancale and Mont St Michel within a short driving distance. We would definitely recommend to others.

Great property, as listed. Huge garden. Lovely host. Would advise requesting the contract before booking as there are additional costs payable to be aware of; bedding, towels, post-stay cleaning etc.

Beautiful garden, great host. Unfortunately for us we found it a little too rural as we were unable to walk to the shops.

It is a beautifull house, which includes everything that is needed for a family holiday. The swimmingpool was excellent for us and our small children, just as the house. Very large and beautifull garden. A week was just a bit short with everything the north of Bretagne has to offer: St Malo, beaches, mt. St. Michel, Dinand, Acquarium, and a lot more.

An absolute gem of a find!! This Gite has everything you need for a relaxing getaway. We explored the area visiting the local Zoo (Bourbanais) located in a Chateaux's grounds, exceptional. Also Cancale is beautiful and the Oysters, WOW - Dozen for less than £10 - what can you say. Also visited Rennes which is oldy worldy and well worth the visit, less than 1 hour drive. Limited number of restaurants in the area, but this is rural France after all. Dol de Bretagne, about 4 miles along the main road is lovely with some nice bistros. For some days we just lay in the gardens and soaked up the sun - lovely. Laurence was very informative and made us very welcome. Thank you

Beautiful spotless gîte in a quiet location in Lafresnais, perfectly located: not far from St Malo and the Mont st Michel, near the beach . Very comfortable bedding, the swimming pool was very clean and well appreciated on hot days. The garden ( or should I say park) is so big and peaceful, full of trees, plants fish/hens. You can do many activities such as volleyball/petanque or enjoy walking around it(try finding the secret pond).A perfect getaway. The owners Lawrence and Jacky were very kind and welcoming, they are clearly very passionate about their home/garden and care about their guests, which is rare these days. I give Lawrence and Jacky 10/10 . I highly recommend this gite. You will not be disappointed.

Lovely property and amazing garden. The property was well equipped and garden area particularly good for the children. Badminton boules swings loungers and small unheated pool. One bedroon and bathroom downstairs, with toilet directly off the kitchen area, a bit disconcerting. The other two bedrooms were slightly larger and accessed with a spiral staircase which proved a little difficult with a young child keen to explore. We found ways of blocking it off though. TV in every room but we didnt use these. No bath but good shower and well lit mirrors. Basic kitchen equipment but good enough for most meals we made. The only drawback I found was the cost of extras, sheets 20€ cleaning 80 € and welcome pack . Check out time was a bit early at 9.00am and the owner turned up on the dot to inspect. Otherwise a pleasant stay.

This was an amazing place to stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in this cottage. The beds were exceptionally comfortable, bedding was good quality. It took us a few days to get used to the pillows, as they are very different to pillows used in UK, but this is only a small matter. We were brave and used the swimming pool, despite the slightly cool weather. The gardens are huge but unfortunately we were not able to mae the most of all of the space as the weather didn't really favour sitting outside. We did however eat outside under the canopy every night. The cottage is extremely quiet and private. Laurence is a friendly and beautifully kind lady who was on hand if we needed her. Our only negative comment was that we would have appreciated a welcome pack. We arrived late afternoon during a storm, after travelling since 8:00am. We had thankfully stopped at the supermarket when we arrived in France as we were aware that Sunday opening hours can be sporadic in France. This was a saving grace as there were no provisions at all other than 1 toilet roll and 1 dishwasher tablet. In previous stays in France we have been left tea, coffee, bread and sometimes a bottle of wine or juice. It just felt a little disappointing that this had not been considered. This did not spoil our amazing holiday but though it worth mentioning so others are prepared in advance. quality. It took us a little

Wir (2 Personen) hatten einen sehr schönen 2 wöchigen Urlaub. Laurence und ihr Mann haben das Haus selber renoviert/restauriert. Es ist genau wie im Inserat beschrieben. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und können es definitiv weiter empfehlen. Es igbt einen super tollen Garten, einen Park, ein Traum. Auch die überdachte Terrasse ist super, auch bei Regen (den hatten wir das ein oder andere Mal) kann man dennoch draußen sitzen (ich habe viel gelesen). Es gibt im Garten verschiedene Sitzmöglichkeiten und Rückzugsmöglichkeiten. Der Pool ist toll, auch wenn wir ihn nicht genutzt haben (es war uns im Mai noch zu kalt ;-) ). Das Haus bietet genug Platz. Das Bad ist groß und hat eine tolle Dusche, 2 Waschbecken und es gibt top genug Ablagemöglichkeiten, das gibt es nicht oft :-) Die Gegend ist toll und es gibt jede Menge zu erkunden! Vielen Dank Laurence und Jackie für die tolle Zeit.

Wir wurden von Laurence sehr nett empfangen und konnten uns jederzeit bei Fragen an sie wenden. Unsere Ferienwoche hatte auch Anfang September hochsommerliche Temperaturen und deshalb genoss ich es im Freien, in der Hängematte, zu schlafen und am Morgen den Vögeln zu lauschen, auch ein Füchslein hörte man. Schöne Strände findet man bei Cancale und viele Ausflugsziele in alle Richtungen. Auf dem GR 34 kann man an der Küsten entlang wandern. Vielen Dank an Familie Gauplé

Wir hatten das Objekt anhand der Lage und der Fotos ausgesucht. Traumhaft der Garten (eher ein Park) und das Haus adrett und charaktervoll. Die Küchenausstattung könnte noch ein paar Utensilien vertragen. Es hat uns sehr gut gefallen.

Nous avons passé des bonnes vacances. Le grand jardin était parfait pour se reposer. Beaucoup de sites touristiques sont proches. C’était très gentil de nous donner les vélos. Seul chose à critiquer, c’est que la toilette n’est pas trop privée. Merci pour l’hospitalité.

Lieu de vacances idéal en famille ou entre ami(e)s. Nous avons passé un séjour très agréable ! Localisation impeccable pour découvrir la région (15 min de St Malo, 20 de Dinard, 20 du Mont St Michel entre autres). Petite ville calme disposant de toutes les commodités nécessaires. Maison cosy, bien décorée et bien aménagée, avec un fabuleux jardin équipé +++ dans lequel nos fils se sont régalés (piscine, badminton, pétanque,...). Et pour finir, le plus (du plus, du plus), accueil de qualité par des propriétaires d'une gentillesse rare, qui aiment leur région et qui vous donneront pleins de supers adresses pour vous régaler 😊. Superbe lieu de vacances que nous recommandons les yeux fermés !!

Wir haben uns rundum wohl gefühlt. Das Haus ist sehr gemütlich, liebevoll eingerichtet und gut ausgestattet. Es hat uns sehr gefallen. Auch die erste Woche im Oktober konnten wir draußen auf der Terrasse sitzen. Jacky ist sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und sehr geduldig mit unserem "schlechten Französisch" gewesen. Danke schön für alles.

Notre impression sur le Gîte: Simplement idéal. Une conception de Laurence et Jacky avec beaucoup de goût pour un repos parfait et pour la découverte de la région. P.e. Cancale, St.-Malo, Mont-Saint-Michel, Dinard, etc. Encore un grand merci pour votre gentillesse ... et pour les œufs tous frais de vos poules.

Das Haus ist genauso wie beschrieben und wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Der Garten ist mehr ein Park, wunderschön angelegt und sehr groß. Je nach Bedarf findet man überall idyllische Fleckchen zum Sonnen oder um im Schatten ein Buch zu lesen. Die Kinder fanden den Pool natürlich am Besten. Das Haus selbst ist sehr gemütlich eingerichtet und die Betten bequem. Es sind Fernseher in jedem Zimmer, aber die haben wir nicht genutzt (es gab glaube ich 2 französische Sender). Wenn es eine Kritik gäbe, dann nur, dass eine Toilette ohne Fenster für 6 Personen nicht optimal ist. Wir waren nur zu viert, da ging es. Die Lage fanden wir optimal. Ruhig auf dem Land, aber mit dem Auto schnell an wunderschönen Ecken der Bretagne. Die Besitzer wohnen im Haus nebenan und stehen bei Fragen oder Problemen immer sofort zur Verfügung, das ist natürlich ein super Service. Wir kommen bestimmt wieder...
