We have been holidaying at Paimbu for over 20 years now, and never tire of the peace and quiet of the place. The fires are in a really rural part of Brittany, yet close to so many places to visit - beaches, restaurants etc etc Maria and Tony, the friendly owners, live on site so are always available to give advice on places to visit, things to do etc Having bikes to rent allows you to explore the beautiful local area. The nearby river has a cycle path alongside, the roads are very quiet compared to the UK, and there are so many cafes and small restaurants (check out the 'menu ouvrier' which is just incredible value at lunchtime) that you'll be hard pressed to run out of things to do and places to go. We would recommend La Cour without hesitation. Once you've stayed you'll want to keep coming back.
We have just returned from a week in walnut cottage. The four gites, despite being situated together around a (beautiful) courtyard, offer real privacy and all have their own enormous private garden with stone BBQ. Walnut cottage is very comfortable with everything you need. Well equipped kitchen and comfy lounge downstairs. Two bedrooms and nice bathroom upstairs. The tiled floor and small windows keep it nice and cool too. There is so much to see in the area and the roads are quiet. We visited picturesque village and port of la Roche Bernard with its many creperies and artisanal shops, la Gacilly is similar with the addition of the Yves Rocher museum (really good tour), beaches at pornic , la noeveillard and damgan are lovely. Rochforte en terre is stunning with great photo opportunities. A cooler day took us to the car museum in loheac which my husband really enjoyed!! To be fair it was a well stocked and we'll laid out museum with hundreds of cars and he did accompany my daughter and I to Yves Rocher! All in all a super place to holiday - great food, local cider. Wine prices still great. The superU supermarket in guemene panfao stocks a great range - great bakery and cheese selection. Tony and Maria are great hosts. Very approachable and friendly. They provide great folders with really useful details of everywhere you can visit. If you need to wind down and also want to easily explore some beautiful places this is an ideal and tranquil place to stay.
My husband and I along with our 8 month old son stayed here for a week in July this year. The gite is located just outside a quaint village which has a bakery (less than 5 mins cycle) and tabac. We would visit the bakery in the morning and enjoyed sitting in the cottage's beautiful (and very large) garden to have our breakfast. The gite is perfectly equipped with everything you would need for self-catering. Big fridge, oven and gas stove, lots of crockery and cutlery as well as picnic and bbq equipment. The charcoal bbq outside is a good size and we really enjoyed the peaceful al fresco dining. The gite has a spacious living area with plenty of seating as well as TV with UK channels and a good hi-fi system. We took an HDMI cable and were able to connect this to the tv to watch a few shows we had brought. There are two good-sized double rooms on the first floor, the master with lovely french doors which we kept open at night to keep us cool. The second is perfect for young children and Maria and Tony provided a comfy cot for our baby. Tony and Maria provide extensive information in the gite, organised in folders, describing attractions in the local area. This information was very navigable and we used it like a bible every evening to decide what we wanted to do the next day. There are countless things to do in the local area, including swimming lakes, beautiful towns, beaches (around an hours drive), chateaux and lots of country markets. There are many bikes to borrow at the gite and we were able to put our son on the back of a bike using the baby seat. Around a 10 minute cycle and you will reach the beautiful River Villaine where you can cycle along the towpath to Redon. This is a very peaceful area and provided us with just the kind of holiday we were after - a week of lovely food, relaxing and pottering about. Thank you to Maria and Tony for a fantastic stay.
